Which Sport Kills More Of Its Athletes Each Day???
« on: April 10, 2025, 09:49:49 AM »
Well there is one thing Harness Racing is #1 at! You kill more of your athletes in one week than every other sport has combined in centuries. The only other "sport" would be The Roman Gladiators that even comes close. Feel free to respond, but no matter what you say the truth is the truth. Bunch of horse killing douchebags living off money you don't deserve. Horse killing welfare recipients. BTW, look at all the positive press the industry has been getting lately!!!  ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3
Now the question is, just how far do I want to go with this???

 Bottle collecting world championships?

 Biggest pest on the East Coast?

 National Woman Harrassing?
We don't need to race, we do it for the love of horses & because we can. Great game if you have the means.

 *The 2 y.o's have shown a ton of talent & 1 just missed a sire stake win

T-breds by a wide margin, probably near 10x more. Numbers will also climb in girls/womans sport as the dems cant just seem to see an issue with men making believe they are girls.

A big part of it is because horse racing has so many more athletes (horses and people) than any other pro sport.....

Ok? And it takes no responsibility for the animals it creates to profit off revenue handed to it by states. Disgusting. Standardbreds are an amazing breed and in the end are treated like trash. FACT.

Mountain climbing, probably hiking, wingsuit flying.

First of all not even close. And don't those people choose to do what they do?

More hikers die hiking than standardbreds die racing.

Hmm... How many hikers die being sent to kill pens? I rest my case.

You provide no support for your statements. That is not racing.

Good question. Pro-rata? Maybe "professional" wrestling? Probably not when you count both equine and human athletes, but I don't think that would be a fair comparison.

Both t-breds and s-breds are a very dangerous sport. What do they say, the only sport where an ambulance follows you around? Between equine and human athletes in both sports, deaths and career ending injuries, the numbers simply aren't good.

Horses don't have a choice and in the end most are tossed ending up in kill pens. They're nothing more than the vehicle used to profit. And that's a fact.
