: Hollywood, you have already stirred this pot before.....why do you continue? Do you have nothing better to do? I've got a little down time between now and the middle of January, and besides, I'm retiring at the end of next July, so it's gotten to the point where I don't much care if I pizz somebody off. I've had to be "politically correct" for 14 and a half years, Now, I don't. If I think something is dumb or stupid, I'll say so, and holding two games 120 miles apart (straight line distance; 150 miles driving distance) on the same dates, is, on the surface, dumb as hell. OK, it's been explained that the City of Palm Bay wanted an event on that date, and so one was chosen and contracted. But I'm wondering if the folks up at Palm Bay just said "Yessir, we'll get right on it!" when the city "suggested" the date, or if they said something to the effect of "Another producer is holding a similar game that same weekend at Ft. Myers, which will attract many of the same players and teams that we are trying to attract, and therefore, we think it might be a better idea to do this in February, when we are not facing competition!"
