Yes, we all know "best in show" does not equate to "best in health" but I believe (and could be wrong) someone who has generation after generation of champions probably has a good chance of having pups of higher quality, a chance I'd be willing to consider. So if a breeder has a lot of champions in their pups' background, for me, as a buyer, I'd take notice (and check it out further).

There's nothing wrong with showing your breeding dogs pedigree on the website, this is educational. Saying, "champion bloodlines" is just a marketing ploy, and usually it means that "grandpa was a stud", whose breeder showed him and then sold out his services to anyone that wanted him.
Additionally, those breeders who mention major lines usually have gotten the line via the back door. Again, just a marketing ploy.
