I wish more would get my philosophy. But thinking back I exactly did not have my philosophy before I became-disabled--The dreaded Handicapped word----

Now I am thankful---I listen to these races and may prefer one style over another, but never something I would call bad-----Maybe I do not know any better.. Not being arrogant--I may not know this game well but You don't spend about 20 years in Law Enforcement and be a chump-----

I chose to be positive--I chose to focus on the positive----this here is one great game----I think for me coming from where I was to being desperate and disabled----Spending 10- 12 hours alone minus a visiting nurse or PT etc---This Game became my side kick----I found TV that I truly could inter act with---I found a sport--Where I could 1-watch 2 participate-----I found some awesome folks who would lend me a hand---

I see it this way--Instead of knocking the game-Lets make it better

I know I said it a million times here---But this is one special game---With some stand up classy and talented men and women--

I am privileged to be part of the Horse Racing family.

I thank God each and every day for this game. Its just not gambling to me.
