Re: Perfect Game PGBA nonsense in Texas
I read the article about Ray. Not good. I cant speak for PG but they do care about their brand and youth baseball in general. I will bet that if you go through the channels in a correct manner, you may get some positive results. I see that you don't have a lot of posts but a prominent member of PG does post on here often. PGStaff. You may get better results by sending him a Private Message on here as opposed to calling PG out.

Re: Perfect Game PGBA nonsense in Texas
FREE=GOOD, I did receive an email from someone in your organization. I have been trying to gather more information. We don't want teams out there thinking we screwed them. I really think your approach is wrong. If you have been "screwed" we will not stand for that. However bringing up the Banditos and their owner is not the reason for your team not being in the tournament. The Banditos play in nearly every event we hold nation wide. Obviously they would get in this one. And regarding the...

And that is what I thought would happen....your post responses became mostly about the other organization and how you called them/him out as opposed to about the 16u team problem you were having. I would HIGHLY recommend you delete your post and re-phrase your post as a question to PGStaff if he could please look into this...maybe over a private message.....have you met PGStaff, a.k.a. Jerry Ford, Founder of PG? Good luck Free=Good.

OK, I guess this is the only way to communicate with FREE=GOOD on this matter, so here is what I have found out. The entry fee was not paid on time. So as of Sunday, the tournament director made out the schedule based on all the teams that had paid the entry fee. Schedules are usually produced a week before the event if not sooner. We do understand that sometimes this is simply a mistake or miscommunication on the part of the team. Anyway, based on the information we do have, we have talked...

As I stated in my first post on this thread.... "May not be in this case but often it is the team's fault and not the organizer"

Re: Perfect Game PGBA nonsense in Texas
Hi all Thanks for the responses. As you may have surmised I was upset and lashed out, typing a snarky response that was probably better directed somewhere else and did not include other teams. For that I apologize. I'm not big into deleting messages as if they never happened - I'll leave it and face the music. Again I humbly apologize for my message. As for the delayed payment, that's obviously not what I was told - I will investigate though.

To All Those Who Read This Thread in the Future -- those of us who have been around awhile knew with 95% probability after the first post what the likely story was. Hold your fire, at least until after you've questioned your own coach 10 different ways what really happened, and make sure 8 of those questions involve the financials of your own team. FREE=GOOD -- good for you for not deleting the post, but you got much better than what you deserved (the truth directly from THE source, AND an...

FREE=GOOD, Thanks and apology not necessary, though appreciated. If in your shoes I would have been mad. I wish I could guarantee you will enjoy the tournament. They are all different, some better than others. The only thing I can guarantee is that we do really care. That does not mean we never make mistakes. In this case I think we could have done better.

Yet another example of the class act PGSTAFF is. Based on my knowledge of him both on the forum and in real life, his goal is always to do the right thing, and look out for the kids best interests. He is old school, and his compass is set to try and help anyone who is deserving. This includes when he his organization is not at fault, but he still wants to assist in making things as good as possible, within his capabilities. So here is another well deserved pat on the back for all you do.
