Conflicts

Now during our season we have conflicts. Some are self inflicted as in promising something then realizing that something falls on the same date as something else.

Windham vs Fryeburg vs Togus is a perfect example. Another weekend could have been picked by Windham but that would have entailed the town of Windham actually moving their celebration to another date. Not a fixable situation. In my opinion, Togus did it on purpose to actually cut down on car count so veterans could enjoy their time in the sun. This has been the theme with the Administrators of Togus in years past. The Rod Run at Fryebueg just celebrated its 27th so don't expect that to move anytime soon.

These are just examples of scheduling conflicts that happened before a set calendar was established. Searsport and Bluehill could be used as another example, due in part to the proximity of both towns.

The only conflict between Moxie and Ossipee would have been who had the most shade. Moxie would have lost, but they still pulled a good amount of cars with some less than expert judging being done as compared to the real pro's we normally get at other shows past, present and future. Hint of sarcasm noted?

Most if not all of these are by mistake or accident. However some are on purpose, with good reasoning or forethought to accomplish a goal. But a couple were done with a little attitude, mostly because of some past misdeed or clash of personality. Scheduling your event to directly conflict with another clubs event is a little petty and should have been left in high school.

Feeling all butt hurt is fine but don't drag it around like a stone that you want to drop on someones head. To purposely schedule your event on top of another event for payback or whatever reason is not only making your club look bad or even childish it also hurts alot of people that had nothing to do with the original problem and ultimately ruins that event for everyone. Collateral damage to those that belong to both organizations is going to hurt both organizations and most people that have a bad taste in their mouths about something spit it the fuck out.

We got rid of the he said she said crap a couple of seasons ago. Captain Nut Sack has retired back to his Hogpit of Love and the Right Reverend Fudgewhistle is peacefully giving his sermon on the mount to a somewhat dwindled parish. The other guy is still present at times but not really relevant in his commentary.

I could give this latest bout of High School Wah Wah Wah a name, like all the others. But at this point the douchebaggery of the situation can still be rectified, or can it.
