just read the PGF response....it reads like someone wrote in an "emotional" state of mind for sure. IMO, it comes across as "that's not fair"...."they can't do that"....I'm sure the Gary dude is a good softball leader and all his National Championships are impressive, but he is obviously not a businessman. His numbered responses are pretty much a disaster from a "spin doctor" perspective and new ideas are formed everyday in business and technology and not expecting a competitor to counter the market share the PGF captured from the ASA is utterly amateur like.....they should have not responded publically, as they come off as desperate and a victim now, especially with the language about "personal threats" and "black balling"....very unprofessional IMO.
we all know why the PGF was formed by the Cali teams. My DD has been to California ("Cali") for the PGF National Championships the last two years and one thing is for certain, there are the "haves" and there are the "have-nots" at the highest level of girls pitch. The Cali teams and their coaches are the "haves" and there are only a hand full (6-7) of teams outside of Cali. in that club....all others teams are the "have-nots". ASA has turned up the pressure on that "club" and their fraternal relationships with outrageous prize money and entry fees that only "haves" can afford with their rumored $5,000+ per kid annual fees and tryout fundraisers at $500 a pop. The fact that ASA is going to pit those "haves" against each other now with prize money and testing the "haves" loyalty is what's really funny....it may take a year or two, but those "haves" won't sit back for too long watching the "have-nots" come in their back yard and take home a huge cash prize....because a National Championship trophy is not nearly as nice as a National Championship trophy that comes with a big cardboard check for $44,0000....
