When I wrote my post, it occurred to me (once again) that those
originally behind the NA Sprint were on to something. Now that is a
meaningful aggregate group competition - only problem is that it
requires more work.
I wonder if perhaps some of the drivers then were similar to some of the
root issues I think are at play here now?
