Yes every past champion should be in the classic , you'll never grow the event without that respect of the past . There's enough room for plenty of the flat brim boys without leaving the ones that did so much for the sport .
How is that suppose to grow the sport
That is stupid.........a win should automatically qualify for the classic

I don't want to grow the sport. There's enough of us out there as it is.
I agree. Grew up BASS fishing in Alabama, watching Clunn, Parker, Mann, etc. All these new comers always complaining. Just fish and abide by rules you agreed to. Now, if you stop allowing the Open event winners in the Classic, BASS will go down. They pissed me off when they took the non-boater away. FLW flourished because of that decision...

Talk about digging up the past, how far down the list was this thread?
"The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments
Go Rick Clunn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've said it before...This is NOT and Elite series event...it is a B.A.S.S.event. Consider it the U.S. Open of Bass fishing

Everything will be all right if the sun comes up in the east tomorrow your life will go on whether or not Rick, Kevin or any other Tournament Fishing Legend gets to fish The Classic...
Joe Namath won a Super Bowl. They should let him play n in the next one.
Clunn , the master of the craft, wins a tourny , and dont make classic, but yet there are at least a dozen men that are in it that only thier mom knows who they are , ridiculas
