People believe that the term "linebred" dogs relates to "better" dogs.

You can take two sorry dogs and tightly breed them from now to eternity and your going to end up with nothing more than a BUNCH of sorry dogs.

The purpose (In my mind anyhow) of tightly breeding dogs is to reproduce what you start with.  Although slight "corrections" can sometimes be made by outcrossing, for the most part if your trying to fix things by use of linebreeding then you started with the wrong dogs and your wasting your time.

This is were selection comes in Bryant. Breeding the best dogs no matter if its linebreeding or not.

Let me know how that pup you got from Scott's breeding works out for you. Just FYI that pup is 3/4's my stuff.
