I was thinking more like Jake Gyllenhaal. Same kind of build and looks kinda like him.

Its a good ole boys club. Usually after an infraction and as usual, no inquiry, the driver tells the other one, “I owe you one”….

This story is a big moneymaker. Paid interviews, books, a made for TV movie. People just love to here those juicy tidbits of hate and anger. I wonder who'll paly the lead as the murderer?

Agreed
What is the legitimate purpose of a reserve?
Why not just set a minimum bid at what would have been the reserve price?
Great idea. The sale (auction) would be over in one day.

good points Q
with todays technology there is no reason to be running auctions they way they were 30 years or more ago
i know they have the online bidding but putting the live auction in the hands of bid spotter most of whom seem to be over 70 is not as good idea
add in that it allows the auction house to fleece bids and there is no need for it anymore
its all for show and manipulation
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

You comment makes no sense, anyone bidding with an electronic device would be responsible and every bid could be tracked digitally. That's the professional way to conduct a sale, if a consignor or breeder want to bid up their horse so be it. But when the hammer falls the horse goes to the highest bidder and if they forget to press the button or their consignor forgets to that's on them and no circus and lawsuits. I'm all for breeders placing reserves or buying back their horses if they are not happy with what the market offers but it must be done in a fair manner for the market. You cannot run up horses and play games when people are told they are the highest bidder. Integrity is everything at a horse sale and unfortunately too many breeders have none.

I am 100% in favor of keeping the ACA subsidies. I think of all the issues, this will doom the GOP at the mid-terms. It is unthinkable that the GOP would allow the subsidies to lapse without a better alternative for the program.

In West Virgina, 35% of the population is either on Medicaid or get ACA subsidies.
A group of West Virginians were asked 2 Questions:
1. Are you in favor of keeping the current ACA Subsidies?
-Result ... YES 75%. NO 25%.
2. Are you in favor of keeping the current ObamaCare subsidies?
-Result ... YES 20%. NO 80%.
I still love West Virginia... Charles Town, Mountaineer, and the last two Dog tracks left in North America.
 you can easily add another 6-7 red states with similar percentages
