I don't like to be limited by how many times or how often. If there is a perfect judge, that judge should judge every year. I suspect next year Ed will judge, and that will make ten times for him. I know that I am pleased he is willing to do it. Dave and Ralph have each done the National nine times, and I say, get them both back again. How in the hell will we know who is the best when the 'same ole same ole' judge our National every three or four years. To say they are the best is an insult to every judge who would like to have his day in the center of that ring. You may just be surprised at the talented people out here in the boon docks who will never get that chance. As a flaming liberal you should appreciate my point of view. (lol) That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. Randy C. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
