    You're right Marshall , me and Frass aren't to be messed with , we're a couple of bad dudes . By the way , an open face sandwich only has 1 slice of bread .
    I don't know how familier you are with forums , but belive me they're all pretty much like this one . There are always a few leaders , intelligent measured men and women who strive for truth , fairness , and excellence in journalism . Then there is the relatively silent majority ( Carol says there are thousands of them ) who read the posts and agree , disagree , or couldn't care less . Then there are the agitators , the trouble makers , the malcontents like me who have no problem expressing an opinion . And there's room here for all of the above . The reaction that Bobby Diehl got on this board was brought on by none other than Bobby himself . In fact , the first person to call Bobby out for his obnoxious posts and attempts to dominate the board was one of the afoementioned intelligent men , Rex .
    Carol and Jane do tend to overuse the martydom routine , but they both feel just as strongly about their views as you do yours . And that means they can put anything on the board that they feel is relevent , or interesting , or will begin a discussion . I don't know either one of them so i can't be too hard on them . But i do know that some of the comments here concerning Carols' post about Michael Jackson were uncalled for .
    As to the idea (that everyone seems to have ) that Carol and Jane control this board and can have comments deleted at will , and can have people banned , i hope that isn't true . I can't imagine why either would think they have any right to bar people or comments . Of course two of my favorite people on this board have vanished , so maybe they can . I hope not , it takes more than a thin skin to decide who is important and who isn't .

      BTW we also lost Farah Fawcett earlier that day.

      When she arrived in heaven she was asked what wishes she would leave for the rest of us.
      She said only that we should protect all the little children...
      A few hours later Michael Jackson died.....

        Hey Rick, Thanks.
        I'm getting all kinds of e-mails with stuff like that. Can't put them on here though with all the fans he had

        My personal favorite is the former King of Pop turned into the Shiek of Freak!!

        May he rest in peace, but I won't shed a tear for him.

        --JIM--
        RIP Jack Smith and Kim Brown. Many thanks for all you have done for our sport.

          What an apology

          I have been on this board for a long time also. Was under a different user name before it changed formats. You are doing what you always did before. You would say something stupid get your feelings hurt and then make a post to ellicit sympathy from the other members on here.

          This was not an apology. Just like when David Letterman not apologized to Sarah Palin. This was a weak attempt to solicit sympathy and to get your ego stroked by the other members on this board. I see that you are getting some results.

          You have many times said you were done with a subject but not once do I know of have you honored your own statements.

            AJ14 - no, I do not ban anyone and seldom, if ever, delete anything. And personally, I never looked at the thread on Michael Jackson at all and still haven't. I grew up listening to his music and the Jackson 5, was sad he died along with Farrah, but that was about it. If someone wants to celebrate his life, I don't care because that is what they want to do. I was upset more that my water turtle died and my neighbor died suddenly a few days after Michael. But I will admit that I was watching the BET Awards for a few minutes last night and was surprised how fast they changed the whole ceremony to honor Michael Jackson. Everyone was wearing Michael Jackson look-alike clothes and his famous one glove. But someone did alot of work to change that to honor him so fast.

            But NO, I AM NOT THE BAD BITCH EVERYONE WANTS ME TO BE ON THIS BOARD. I SELDOM MODERATE IT ANYMORE, THERE ARE OTHERS THAT DO THAT INSTEAD NOW. And Carol has never been a moderator of this board or control this board. She is like everyone else and can complain about certain posts if she feels they are offensive which we do get from people. But she has NEVER been part of this board. She does not own it and I certainly don't own it.

              about Binner...

              Jerry is one of my closest friends and there have been many issues over the years we have disagreed on.. same with me and Rex aka Boneman. i would never ban them even if i had the power to do so. as for OJ... well i really thought alot of him until he continually badgered me and berated me. it cooled off my feelings for him because friends do not hurt each other. honesty does not hurt me one single bit. but cruelty does. i did NOT have anything to do with him being banned either.
              i wish everyone could come back to the board. especially jerry. he is a walking encyclopedia of racing info. OJ also has a vast knowledge. i just wish all of you could find a way to disagree without being insulting and hurtful. we are all in this to keep it alive. you should be thankful we put so many long hours in to promote all of you and we do it for FREE!!!! in fact it costs me....
              i do not look for sympathy. i dont need it. but i do look for respect because after almost 67 years i have earned it. i have never ever done a single thing to hurt any of you... and some dear friends of mine did hurt me. but its all good...
              when you all called MJ a pedophile and pervert, i didnt jump in and defend a pervert. i just stated that there is no way we can prove that so it isnt fair to
              accuse. (i think i saw a little race track at Neverland)...
              now i really do have to get to work and i hope all of you have a wonderful day... i really do...
              carolwicks aka OZ
              my intentions are good but i just cant seem to shut up... you keep egging me on like you cant stand for me to shut up...well we certainly gave RRUSA/Karnac some hits this weekend... ;-)
