If I were to apply your logic to the BCS championship, Oregon barely lost to Auburn, missing several scoring opportunities, and then losing the game on a fluke play late. Oregon looked like the better team and regardless of losing, they should have been named the champion.
That being said, I really don't care who was named HOY. Blame will have every opportunity to make (his connections) huge money as a sire.
A horse is a horse of course of course. Rachel Alexander is a better horse than Zenyatta AND Blame to put it succinctly.
