Stro is a no Go

Posted by How? on May 23, 2022, 3:39 pm

How does this guy have a job with USSSA? It seems like he wants all the glamor with certain tournament's and ceremonies but nothing to do with the tough choices or matters in USSSA. He says things that people want to hear without knowing actual facts. Great job breaking down the clear re covering of the ball, but hey the stamps match so that's all you care about.

I liked the suspensions at first but how does he walk around and say he has nothing to do with them when he was actually there and in fact does have a say in all the cases. Following tourney in TX umps getting threatened again Stro scared of certain people so sweeps under rug.

Uhhhhh I thought Stro was involved with Conference and not with day to day other tourneys in the lower divisions.

Was the re stich issue a conference thing? Dont think so

If I am wrong my apologies

The manufacturer of the ball is who would confirm the ball is doctored, just like a bat.

Why is he writing a post on it? He is involved and is terrible at his job with softball.

I'm sure Stro is very upset that some loser took the time to bash him on an internet message board under an anonymous name. It's sad.

He def has that Nick Saban complex but he does love pushing the CD19 down your throat.

I’m confused, Stro is the director of the conference ,right?
Conference isn’t bring your own ball, right?
How is this on him?
If I’m wrong I’m sure somebody will gladly point it out. 😁

Stro put up a Facebook post about something that happened in Texas with nothing to do with the Conference.

Someone who has a problem with Stro and likely no life put up this post.

Stro said his feelings are hurt.

Hope this explains it.

Are you actually asking how a guy who lives in the Pacific NW and is charge of conference and has nothing to do with local Texas tournaments has a job?

Maybe because he is doing his job running conference? Do you go to your job and get in trouble for not doing someone else’s job on top of yours?

If I go to my job and I suck I would get cut and have to go to another job/team. If I go to my new job and suck again, then I get cut again and have to find another job/team. Bottom line is dont suck at your job and you won't end up on 5 teams in 1 season. I think this is the message CM is trying to get across.

He is affilated with USSSA and should address this stuff.

It is mind boggling that it takes a TD in TX at one of his events to start identifying problems and addressing them.

He is testing bats, sanding of labels when they do not pass, and looking for guys cheating with softballs. I wonder why other directors are not doing this, and his events are still selling out after he tells all of Texas what he is doing.

All states and sanctions should follow this guy to clean the sport; he is yet to loose teams because he is doing this.

I don't decide what gets deleted here. Don't own the site anymore for this very reason.
