What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA quieter story now, and a local one.

2. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNew York City's council speaker and its mayor both support ending horse carriages, so a ban is expected.

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistFinally, somebody thinks of the horses.

4. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistForty years those poor lads have clopped through rain, sleet and tourists, and not one of them was ever given a forecast.

5. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorYou're all cheering, and nobody asked the horse. For all we know he loves the work, the park, the hat.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe hat.

7. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistI did ask the horse, Dale.

8. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistWell, I stood near one in a light drizzle, and he gave me a look that said he wanted to be indoors.

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOr he wants a pension, a union and a stable with a view of the park, and now the city is taking his career and calling it kindness.

10. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA union. For a horse.

11. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistAnd if he gets one, I want him on the weather desk. Nobody reads a cold front like a creature standing outside all day.

12. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorLet me finish. If he's on the weather desk, who pulls the carriage, Brock? Who pulls it?

13. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorWe have two men on this panel arguing about a horse's career plans, and the horse is not here, has not been asked and has no comment. He's the only one making sense.
