Re: [RC] FEI - racing - riding - Europe - USA - Truman PrevattLeonard.Liesens@xxxxxxxxxxxx wrote:I used to spend a lot of time gigging frogs - yum. We Southerners - at least of my age ate organs hell we even deep fired the pig's skin and ate that - didn't let anything go to waste. We have kettle corn - which is very good which is popcorn with sugar! When I'm in England I regularly eat the "strange things" on the menu - much to my colleagues disgust at times. Absolutely nothing against how folks ride in Europe - that's your business - and it's only natural endurance would have evolved differently there than here. Europe and the US are after all different. I have absolutely flat out endurance racing be it held in the UAE, Europe or even the US. The only thing I find a bit bothersome this sort of merger mentality I see from some. Now if you guys would just stop calling that silly game where you chase a round ball around a field - fussball. That's not football! I don't have anything against soccer either. I refereed it for about 10 years on the high school level in Maryland when it was so new in this country that there weren't enough referees. I learned to play it in college as the track team used it to keep in shape during fall before the winter and spring track seasons. However, it's still not football ;-) !
