End of 2006: ...State of the Game

~~ I have just copied the A.O. Results from Butch Curry's website - THANKS, Butch! There were several EXCELLENT performances, but some disappointments, bombs, and no-shows, as well.
~~ I believe that in 2007, we should focus on becoming #1 in the W. Hem. - both at the Senior Level, AND at the Junior Level! Here's what I believe it would take, in order to ACHIEVE this...
..... (1) New Constitution with Membership having powerful checks & Balances over their NGB. The Membership would be voting on ALL important issues. "Emergency Powers" would belong to the Membership - NOT the NGB. The NGB's job would be to serve the Membership - NOT the "tail wagging the dog" as we have now!
..... (2) New NGB
..... (3) Look into getting WL started as a varsity H.S. Sport throughout the U.S.
..... (4) Look into getting WL (particularly our Nat'l. & International Events) televised on Nat'l. TV.
..... (5) Look into other possibilities - of "getting the numbers!"

~~~~~ So what are YOUR THOUGHTS on this?
