IMO, these teams would rather "show" their players than play to win a national championship which, like it or not, is part of ASA's mission.
I guess thats it.
Show case after showcase culminating in a glorified showcase. Sure beats playing competitive ball to earn your way to a championship. I guess easier. A bunch of 1:20 drop dead showcases. Definitely cheaper, which I'm sure is the big motivation. I am competitive by nature so I may not fully grasp this. I never did understand how girls can cheer while losing.
