OK, members, let's get political!!!! Pairs selection: Noel is in charge of whatever we're going to do about the course we take on this subject. TV sports: Coincidentally, last night I was thinking about what to do regarding the lack of driving horse sports on TV. While I do not receive the Horse Channel with my satellite server(DirectTV), I do receive RFDTV. They do have some very good horse programming, but no driving. Last night I watched Larry Poulin's brother, and others giving a ridden dressage clinic. My thought was, "if they can have a ridden dressage program with his brother, why can't they have a driven dressage clinic with Larry". Then I started thinking about all the other whips who could be used. www.rfdtv.com is the website. Anyone wishing to add their 2 cents worth, can go there. I wrote to DirectTV about not having any worthwhile horse sports. They wrote back telling me about their wonderful horse race programming. To which I responded with a few choice words about my opinion on THAT subject. Bottom line: I doubt they will do anything about it. I even sent them a list of driving websites to visit so they could see how large our sport is. The forum is open..................
