[Act 2, Scene 1] The Horseracing Regulatory Authority disciplinary hearing:

Steward #1 (Doug Neidermeyer) O'Neill! What kind of man hits a defenceless animal? I've got a good mind to smash your fat face. Listen up, you nauseating pile of blubber. Your days are numbered at the Stratford races. You and all your sick Jockey buddies.

FB,

I put it up on a tee for you on the Canuck thread, but I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do for you here.

They will be here soon for you.

(sadly walks away)


They got here before me

Guy only got a one-day ban. A little surprising.

Lemme guess. The ban will take place during his regularly scheduled day off.

This was a big-whoop offense and the punishment is just to try and appease the PETA folks.

I doubt it. A one-day suspension isn't going to appease PETA. They might as well have ruled against the horse and sentenced him to the glue factory.

nothing will appease PETA

Well, you know me, Idaho. I think most of those activists are bat ****. But I actually agree with a good deal of what they stand for. Just not their methods.
