Haymaker,
Sometimes when there's a change such as this format, it affords one the opporunity to decide if time sppent here is worth. Maxine has a family and ranch that she could invest such time in. If that is her decision, I'd say it was a better investment. I don't pretend to speak for her, I'm just saying everyone has their own decisions to make and sometimes things run thier course.
by the wway, the colt I picked up last summer is coming along fine. his mom's about to have another one, The Barred and Doc's Genuine Risk have me pretty excited,

Yes Haymaker, I've been hoping MRJ would return. Clarence said she was away earlier- NCBA convention. Hope she didn't pick up that nasty flu going round. NO telling what you can pick up at those conventions
Sun still shining down in the Lone Star state? When do those blue bonnets turn blue? I've heard you have fields and fields of them.

Haymaker, can you take a picture of these Blue Bonnets and share it here with all of us? I've never seen them before.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Hello to you, too, Haymaker. You remind me of the little kid that doesn't ever learn to interract properly with others of the peer group at day care or school!
I find it very offensive for you to write that I'm spinning, slanting, or in any way mis-representing anything about the Beef Checkoff because there are too many people (at least in SD) who are making false claims about how checkoff money is spent, that some will believe your lies.
That troubles me for the Checkoff, rather than for myself. It really doesn't bother me what others may think about me because I know and am at peace with my actions and thoughts.
Are you really sure you want LMA to "take over" the cattle business? That is even more fearsome than the possibility of losing the Beef Checkoff! All the angst and fuss over "big business/corporate takeovers of agriculture" .....while LMA is controlled by some of the biggest of the market operators and rancher/market operators in the country!!!! How strange people are in what/whom they choose to believe and place their trust with!

MRJ, you just have to remember that sometimes HAYMAKER is sort of misguided. Either he wasn't properly disciplined as a child, or was clubbed in the head a little too hard.
Glad you're back, and that you had a great vacation! The board just wasn't right without your wit and wisdom.

Thats what I've been waiting for-- an NCBA convention report and your feelings on the new NCBA stance-- Is it just a whitewash to keep from losing more members to R-CALF ? Or do they really want to again represent the cattleman? My check is made out- just haven't dated and signed it- waiting to see if they really follow up on what they said........

HAYMAKER, anyone who thinks the beef industry would benefit by having the LMA handle the checkoff has no business calling anyone a dumba**.

Here's the deal. I support the checkoff, and haymaker, I guess you don't. We both raise cattle, and can have an honest difference of opinion. Even checkoff abolitionists must reluctantly agree we've seen a positive return from the monies collected. Hell haymaker, I'm even with you resenting the draconian enforcement of the checkoff - I've never warmed up to putting cattlemen in jail. BUT you're not thinking clearly with regard to LMA. The LMA has no place in this discussion - NO STANDING. They're simply exploiting an honest difference that you and I have to their own purpose. Look at it this way. Suppose a woman had a husband and an extramarital boyfriend, and the hubby comes home and catches the boyfriend with the ho. So the 2 guys are getting ready to fight, and the ho puts a gun in one of their hands. Just like that, one dies, one goes to jail, and the snide keeps all the assets. LMA is only interested in excessive turnover of cattle that will necessarily harm BEEF PRODUCERS, and to this end they'll gladly finance opposition to the chckoff.

Checkoff has been a good thing for the cattle and beef industry- Problem came about when NCBA would not bend and look at a little change or even the question of a producer referendum- this may result in the death of the checkoff.... But I agree it needs some changes in administration and implementation to make it fair and viable- right now it operates under a cloud of impropriety.....
If it stands the court challenge let ALL those that pay it decide who gets to contract and administrate the funds-- Not just the NCBA.......

Haymaker your the hard headed one. I'm not even from the states and I understand how your check off is controled. The CBB in each state which is made up of many cattle orgs. You can be so pig headed at times.
