After the race where Nick Hines horse was nosed for the win, Hines broke down sobbing while being interviewed. Todd Schrupp followed up that interview by taking a shot at message boards and the people who spend all day on them. Apparently Nick Hines must have been ridiculed on some message board. but it just irritates me when they do that. Its been more than one occaison when they go off on message boards like the people that frequent them are all a bunch of loser freaks.

They are coming across as desparate.
It's interesting that they took a shot at message boards seeing as ESPN seems to be putting out a better product each year and some of these improvements are the very things that have been mentioned on boards. Maybe it's coincidential or someone emailed them the suggestions, but TVG could learn something from them too...starting with less air time for Ken Rudolph.
