There used to be some great weekends of shows that are no more because of the mentality. And do you realize that on Memorial Day Weekend there are at least 50 sets of all-breed shows around the country - that's WITHIN the U.S! I agree. The back-to-back shows are creating a problem. And allowing 2 shows on the same day are also creating a problem. It's making in tough for regional clubs to survive. Tish **************Get fantasy football with free live scoring.
