sigh! Why does everyone these days think they should be "given" a chance to "win"? How about earning it? I know what my horses and I do, and if we never cross the line first it won't stop my enjoyment of my rocker someday on my front porch. Wonder if this kind of attitude is part of the recent thrust toward giving every kid on a team a trophy - and not keeping score - so everyone feels like a "winner". Must be. To finish IS to win in this sport.
