The major team pond always fills to no more then FOUR REAL MAJOR TEAMS.

Four is even pushing it. right around there, the spillway starts releasing...

You see... when the buy everything guys (some people call them sponsors) think their odds are down to about 25% for “being there/in the finals” almost every tourney they usually move on and buy into something else with better odds of success.

If you doubt this... just consider all these “sponsors” that merge when their OLD TEAMS were towards the top of their division...why be competitive when you can merge wallets and beat lesser teams almost all year.

Almost all the money guys want to buy things...they don’t crave to actually have to compete... If they actually wanted to compete every game they would support some level of roster limits...

Yep...Sadly...4 true major teams is about it, and it’s because the sponsors of said major teams don’t want or crave a more balanced playing field... they enjoy being able to buy dominance.

I can understand that mindset from the “sponsors” that were handed an easy path to their wealth... but not all sponsors were raised on a silver spoon, yet, to this point I have yet to hear of a major team sponsor pushing for more competition all year long through roster restrictions

That’s because you’re the only person who cares about this dumb shit. Start your own association, since you know everything that needs fixed in something you’ve never participated in. If your “ideas” are that great, it shouldn’t take you anytime to take over usssa flagship program.

But that would mean you would have to do something besides type away stupidity from a keyboard. And we all know that’s all your worthless ass is a good for.

it looks like way more participants then expected like a localized championship series.

Sorry, I gave up taking a usssa state directorship about 25 years ago.

Maybe in the early 90’s there may have been more but there was usually about four Major/Super teams a year. Some ran out of money and some merged just like today.

MPT has pretty much the same team from thier 0-2 AA team from a year ago and they are major. Carucci hasnt teamed up with a million sponsors to buy players and a ring. He does it buy himself, some players who he brought along and made into major players years ago. Other then getting 1 big named player, thier entire team is made up of last years AA players and a few players who were playing A. I know the bought and paid for teams do not like that reality but that is fact. Yes he has a payroll, but nothing like the other 3 and anyone else who says otherwise is flat out lieing. So some teams try to do it the right way so give credit where credit is due and stop hating and pretending thats not reality to make yourselves feel better.

Sponsors take money out of thier own pocket so broke players can have income most have the inability to make in the real world. Without them, whether they choose to blow thier money to purchase a ring or not, its thiers to do what they see fit, so get over it and root for the lower budget underdogs!

MPT is the exception not the rule. Their players are mostly from the NJ/NY/PA area and they are just moving up in class not trying to buy every top player they can get. If Carucci is paying his guys that’s none of my business. Being from NJ I hope they do well this year.
