[QUOTE="novatech, post: 713109, member: 5494"] As many on the boards know Frankie and I have had several sparing matches. I have never held any personal feeling of animosity toward him. The sparing matches have caused me to do a tremendous amount of research in order to prove him wrong. I will never admit defeat right or wrong as that would end the fun. The research I have done has caused me to learn many things I would not have learned otherwise. One very important thing I have become more aware of, because of sparing with Frankie, is that there is a lot more to efficiency than feed efficiency. Total efficiency is much more important. With a cow calf operation efficiency is defined by fertility, foraging ability, mothering, sustainability, etc. What does it cost to get the cow from being bred to selling the calf to having the next calf. Secondly what is the total cost from weaning to the packer. Time, feed efficiency,health, etc. Top it off with how much one can sell the product for. Anybody that is offended by any of the sparing matches on CT are simply concentrating on the wrong thing. If you cannot take it don't read it. I would like to see some people on CT be a little more open minded. Who knows you may learn something. [/QUOTE]
