allowing them to sponsor anything that we participate in (endurance,
thoroughbred racing) says that we don't care what they do over there as
long as it doesn't affect us back home in our own backyard. That is
incredible hypocrisy and, even the naiive amongst us, should be able to
see this needs to be fixed.
agreed - and so sad to know that this is a prevalent attitude in this
country "who cares so long as I get what I want?" This morning on the news they
interviewed a few midwest college students who were among 2000 at their college
who got FLU SHOTS while hundreds if not thousands of the elderly waiting in the
weather to be told they were not available. And what do you supposed those
students said? "well, I know other people needs stuff but i need stuff too".
sigh. I for one DO care about who we allow to put their name on our sport. It
DOES matter what goes on over there.Whatever happened to honor?
