Subject: Nationals: really how important was it? Date: Sun, 05 Jul 1998 14:02:48 PDT From: "shawn kellogg" To: fkusumot@ix.netcom.com The reason i wrote this article was because the nationals just got over and Linde defeated Long in a 3-2 match in the finals. But lets say that Mike Long won, will more people start cheating (i am not saying that Mike Long is a cheater, he has never got a warning but he does have some rumors lingering over him) since they saw What Long did? My question to all of you is that did Linde save magic as we know it as today? in my opinion ythe finals was not for the Nationals championship it was for the sport of magic.
