This is what you said... with my response...

That's not true and you know it.
I was actually giving you the benefit of doubt that you was promoting a PGF biased statement knowing it wasn't COMPLETELY true. Then you said this..

So, now I'm actually believing that you believe your statement is true. THEN you say this...

AND this...
AlwaysImprove wrote:Now further, go watch a pool game BB Myer game at 16U nationals in College Station 2 years ago, when they are playing a no name team. A few college coaches were there. Then go watch BB Meyer when they play Corona Angels, or some other great team. You will not get a seat.
Now what sense would it make for coaches to fly in on Thurs and leave on Fri when the better teams will actually be playing on Sat and Sun? As I said, your statement is not true and you know it. I'm not saying a coach didn't tell you that but what sane person would believe it?
Another question...How many unearned berths did PGF give out this year?
We herd sheep, we drive cattle, we lead people. Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way!
