IOW, why would you bite the hand that feeds your? If you are going to bad-mouth a business, do it outside of their house.
I don't know Carl from Adam, and I have nothing against him. I have read, and enjoyed, some of his writing. Some of it is helpful, even to softball fat guys, and some of it is very funny. If you browse or post on the baseball board, you'll see that is somewhat sharp personality is not limited to being used on softball people.

My comment was not meant as bad-mouthing; more like a review or a complaint. Referee Magazine (are we allowed to mention them here?) decided a few years ago that softball was not a "major" sport; and Adam says the softball content on the paid part of this board has declined. I don't know about that, since I've only been a member of one year. I'd be happy to renew if there was a regular monthly contributor dealing with softball officiating.

I do very much appreciate this board (now if only they would re-enable search!).
