That right there leads to the difficulty of naming a champion in the sense that we are used to thinking about it.

The European dance group in this kingdom had some unfortunate internal problems for a bit, and so the encouragement was difficult because we were all personally frustrated.  We have gotten over most of our personal issues, and so we are being a lot more encouraging.
