I read that bit in the Leitch piece and thought, how freeing to consider racing that way. We have our moment every spring, it passes, the world goes on. Teresa, did you part two of the series? I'm always so focused on the law around baseball stats, it was interesting to read about the PGA ruling, which would seem to have some applicability to whatever position Equibase would take in litigation.
