True, we USA players do "lose on purpose" but only in the interest of
not overwhelming the sport. If we won all the time, everyone would be
afraid to play us, sending the game into decline. So when you lose, is
it on purpose, or by mistake? 🙂
And anyways,since Scotland is not part of the USA, I think that a 12
year old SCOTTISH terrier would have to play for the ROW team. By all
accepted rules, dog breeds can only play for their country of origin, not
where a particular member of that breed currently resides. Only a few
breeds, such as Chesapeake Bay Retrievers or Bluetick Coonhounds,
should be allowed to play for the USA team. It's only fair.
Kirk,
You and I have no need to worry about having to fight Bessyboo
(Sally) in the tournament. Sally, by the way is a very nice person. I
never quite figured out her posing as a Scotish terrier in her profile. I
think she intended to keep guys from hitting on her in her games.

I don't know if anyone here is keeping track of such things, but you
should all be aware that bessyboo did hold onto the number one spot
on the highest rated players table for a very long time.
She was finally bumped by xenophobe. I don't know how long he held
the spot, but she may still hold the record for being there for the
longest time.
My point is this: Don't underestimate her. Whoever is matched up
with her will have a fight on their hands...
I seriously dont think Babe wants the spot again. Three figs guy is not
going to the top. Mark my word, he does not have it in him to get
there. If he keeps it up.As a group we should be able to get Russ or
Chris to kick him off the site.
