Comment on Pennsylvania Gaming Board: Wagering Up 3 Percent In 2017 by Barrmorr

In my opinion the most amazing part of this story is wagering on horse racing in Pennsylvania is up. I guess people don't read all the stories about how crooked the Pennsylvania Racing Commission is and all the under handed goings on at the racetracks in the state. Anybody that would bet on racing in Pa. deserves what they get.

Comment on Twin Thoroughbreds Mr. Ping And Mr. Pong To Race Each Other Friday by Jana Alton

I don't think the remark was unfounded, whether you own a breeding farm or not. Not knowing how to spell proper terminology devalues your commentary. Follicle, fallopian, foreign, immune, preparation, releases, ovulation, ovaries, fertilized. These are all words I would expect a professional to know how to spell, or at the very least know how to look them up.
