Charles a 1 or 2 point short fall should not be an absolute throwout...but more a consideration

Here's what confused me:
I've noticed in my studies that some horses with a point or two difference in speed ratings can be left out of being contenders...

Shouldn't that read "can't be left out of being contenders?" or even "can't automatically be left out of being contenders."

As written I interpreted the sentence as meaning just what it says - that one CAN leave them out as being contenders. In other words, don't pay attention to them.

Maybe it's just me as I cringe whenever I hear someone say "I could care less." I'll usually respond with "how much less could you care?"

I think I was pointing out the same thing in my post above ...

I should have checked for additional posts. I just clicked the link in my email notification to pull up Mike's post.

While I'm here, can you edit that post or let me do so. I don't know what I did, but I'm quoting Mike, not myself.

The smiley was supposed to be the last thing in the post.

Thanks
