RE: 2002 Champion Weight Contest
Hi Bart - A closing date for the contest is a good idea. Last
year as rumors of really big ones circulated late in the
season, the late entries entered higher guesses. This gave the
late players an advantage.
I would suggest a Sept 10 cut-off - about a month before the
weigh-offs.
Any other comments????
