Not appropriate as a board motto, but a nice turn of phrase nevertheless. Well done, DYJCMC.
Anyhoooooo, I'm not sure where the jockeys are coming from on this one. They're threatening to boycott the Kentucky Derby if not allowed to wear ads on their pants. I don't know much about what governs the owner-jockey relationship, other than that they're hired on a race-by-race basis, and it's probably like an independent contractor relationship. Jockeys have to wear the uniform of the owner, and presumably those uniforms don't involve advertising. I think if jockeys showed up wearing ads, they'd be in breach, and those jockeys who refused to ride would also be in breach.
