It is not really about the money Jeremy, and it certainly was not just mid-terms as I would agree they are more important than fishing. The schedule/qualifiers should be posted in plenty of time for everyone to be able to plan accordingly, in my opinion. You had told me at the last event that "we will probably make it as an alternate since we are first on the list for it", so I had just planned on going. I also understand that you cannot plan schooling around "probably" though. I am just as frustrated with the other division where I had paid ALL the fees for the events (one you were running) for me and Craig and he did bail on me (in my opinion). THAT ONE made me upset since I was paying ALL the fees to begin with, plus had no issue paying for the gas too.
I guess the series of events in both divisions is what gets to me, not just one thing, but this IS something that people need to consider unless they are planning on fishing the qualifiers (like some do at each location) for just the money they can make at that one event.
I was happy/honored to have you as a partner this year and enjoyed it even though we had a rough time. I don't care so much about winning or the money as having a good person (like YOU) to fish with and fulfilling my commitments to my team contract. Stuff happens, and it did this year, but I just want to let others to be aware of potential pitfalls. Take care and good luck on those tests brother as I HATED mine when I was going through my Masters!!
