Good speculators - not good sports

I’m sure they’re sitting around puffing on their oversized cigars, having a good laugh about how those naive supporters believed they were “in it for the long haul.”

Yeah, that’s business, but does it always have to be about the bottom line? How much is enough?

JP McManus and John Magnier could have chosen to be part of something special; they could have been heroes to hundreds of thousands around the world.

Instead, they chose to be what the world does not need - just two more speculators.
