82 points from a brand new member has a way of changing things.

For a casual observer who is not involved with the tournament you sure seem bitter. FWIW they would have won without the 82,some guys know how to catch large.

What's bitter about Mike's statement? Its just a statement of fact. You don't agree that a recent entry of 82 pounds significantly changes the results?

Nope, not bitter at all. I couldn't give a #^&#^&#^&#^& which club wins it. I just think that you either have set rules, or not, and if not, your tournament lacks something. If they're flexible, and subject to changing on the fly, IMO it's not a good thing. That's my opinion, nothing more, and you don't have to agree with it, or even like it.

Mike was being coy with his statement Saltheart.And while I agree with his statement regarding the tournament,even he has to acknowledge that OTW had set the precedence years before by allowing changes midstream.The fact it was Myerson or even a record fish should not alter this exception despite the impact on the standings.It actually would have been unfair if he were not allowed to have a club affiliation.

You probably know this, but it has nothing to do with Myerson. I'm in the guy's corner. I just happen to think that a club's roster should be set when the thing starts. Maybe give 30 days grace period for late registrations, the close the club deal. No exceptions. SB benefitted from a couple of late additions in 2007, too. I didn't think it was right then, either.

Fires on the internet don't need a lot of fuel, only bytes of it.

I actually understand this completely....I couldn't give a #^&#^&#^&#^& which woman wins the Miss Universe Pagent...I have not, nor will I ever participate in the Miss Universe Pagent but I do post lengthy remarks on the Miss Universe Facebook page and on various beauty queen websites regarding my opinions on various pagent rules which do not affect me in any way ....it's not that I'm bitter, and I'm actually in the corner of one or two contestants, particularly the ones that go really large....if ya know what I mean...but don't think that because I continually voice my opinions on the rules regarding the pagent that I really
give a #^&#^&#^&#^&
