Yo, Bubba!!! I can guarantee Wade has no blind devotion to anyone. Then again, your "forest" is nothing, but opinion and observation. Offering a varying opinion is NOT blind devotion just because it doesn't agree with yours, unless you are the reincarnation of Sen. Joe McCarthy .

You have blown your horn on a couple of different boards about your right to provoke thought by voicing your opinion...and yet you try to tell others "what to stick to"...

Your opinions and claims have changed and wavered...by your own admission. Your "predictions" have been like weather reports!!

Pot..Kettle

I have heard the saying "umpires see things through their eyes..players, coaches and fans see things through their hearts"....

And now I think sometimes the opposite can be true...umpires are seeing things through their hearts and the players, fans and coaches are seeing things through their eyes!!

Now, you see, my opinion is that is rubbish. Umpire's have no horse in this race.

In summary...YES....I am proud to support GH's talking points and I support the Premier Tournament as a good start to making things better across the board for Girls Fastpitch Softball!!

And that is fine, but your methods are questionable. You have been like the politician who vows to run a clean campaign and then proceeds to tell everyone what a lousy job the opponent has done instead of telling everyone what it is that you can do to make it better. While GH has stated this isn't anything to do with being anti-ASA, all that has been said is that if ASA refuses to change to accommodate this one group of teams, they are wrong even though ASA clearly states and continually reinforces their dedication and mission to promote ALL softball, not just that for those who have bought into the scholarship (imo) scam.
