Yeah, I know that is the trend, but we were singled out. They kept Portland #69 (957 teams and 116 umpires) independent from Oregon #53 (1346 teams and 230 umpires). They kept Florida First Coast (#77) independent with 764 teams and 94 umpires. Both actions taken the same meeting as our review.
But, they felt the need to merge Atlanta #29 (2199 teams and 753 umpires) with Georgia #18 (2910 teams and 840 umpires) in a test the Code calls about viability. Our temporary commissioner is a very methodical former government employee who is an attorney and a CPA, so paperwork isn't the issue.
With that as comparables, we were singled out for some reason.
