Possibly true, but every year is a coulda', shoulda', woulda.  Thats 
what makes each year unique.
Some would argue that the one year I won SOAB(U) in WW (2006), I won 
because K5ZD or K4ZW weren't on full time.  Possibly true, but the same 
could be said of this year or any other year.
Its who gets on and puts in the time is what matters in any given year.
