Mike, I see your point.. but do you think we can have it both ways...and then 
where does one draw the line? Friends bragging for friends not on the list, 
groomers bragging about having groomed the winner's dog at the local all breed 
show? we could easily go from 100 posts a day to 1000 so that everyone could 
see their name pop up on the list..
There really are plenty of lists that support the camaraderie we feel for each 
other, to post pictures and be just plain silly.. I believe this list has 
always been about the "business" of showing American style of dogs and I don't 
think it should be diluted away from that.(we do enough of that often enough, 
and get drawn back - remember Africam???)
Regardless of how we look at it, brags ARE promotion of a dog, breeder, handler 
- they are a form of advertising (and that is not a bad thing either!) but with 
as many members as there are on this list, a line has to be drawn somewhere..
As usual, this is simply my own opinion.. whatever that is worth.. <g>

While I can appreciate the List Rules on who can post brags, it is an
interesting twist that only breeders & owners can post but not handlers.  So
many handlers now breed or co-own the dogs they exhibit, that this rule
becomes a distinct disadvantage to one, such as George, who tends not to
breed or put his name on his client's dogs.   It's a shame that he will now
be penalized for not having a "conflict of interest" as a handler. JMHO

BTW, I don't have a vested interest in whether or not George can post, I
just like to see fairness all around.  

Personally, I don't care for the redundancy of brags on the same dog, one
from each breeder, one from each owner and one from the handler followed by
posted congrats from each person who likes the dog.

Mike
