For those who can be straight-forward and not full of rhetoric, what makes a tournament a "national"?
The TD says it is one?
Straight forward, it's just a name and no one gives a crap.
Please-get a life...quit wasting space
No one person really cares about your asinine comments...
Just shut up and play--bottom line, the common factor is that they are all still tournaments.
It's not rocket science....follow the money trail......Put "National" in the title, and presumably more teams = mo $$$. The ideal situation would be those who qualify get invites to a real "National" Just my humble opinion
It is ridiculous that all these tournaments are called "Nationals" but I would rather have that than no place to play until October in Phoenix.
While Phoenix is a great tournament,
The TOC is SSUSA's only true National and is how it should be. You win your way in by winning a National or a Major SSUSA sponsored event.
Corky, Jawood, and E4/E6,
Thanks for not being so insecure, defensive, and thin-skinned about my question and topic.
Much appreciated! :)
Dirty, If you look back at the other thread, you will find I AGREED with your points. I thought we were giving our final though on this issue before moving on to something else!
So did I, but then Bob and curveball jumped me for having the "nerve" to ask the question.
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH DRAMA INVOLVED IN SOFTBALL IS WHAT MY WIFEY KEEPS ASKING ME????????? CAN ANYBODY ANSWER THIS WITH A STRAIGHT FACE??????? SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY ????????
Vin, as with anything written the reader can read what he likes into what is written. Very easy to read between the lines or rip someone that is just trying to get a point across. Very easy to misinterpret the written word compared to a verbal conversation.
Clear as mud isnt it. =)
Women invented drama, so Im not surprised the Wife recognized it.
