That is very disappointing news ! One that I am not happy with. I would be even more unhappy, if I weren't planning on going to this years National. Two years ago, those of us at home had a "pity party" and even the t-shirts to go with our pity. It was great, and we had Evan's play by play, class by class. There are a number of members who for one reason or another cannot get to every National. I think taking away the blog is taking things a little to far for those members.
