Thank's for the insult.I have what might be a stupid question. Is it the personna or fact that the masters of pigeon racing in europe are the best in the world? Is it that racing is a much bigger sport, longer history than the US, or is it just the perception of this? I know that it is a very big enterprise in europe, where as in the US, for most it is a hobby, and love of the sport. Thanks for any input, Don.
