Where did USL not take the high road? There was maybe two press releases that remotely was directed against the NASL tirade.

Neither BQ or KK had access to USL during that period, from what I believe BQ stated.

This was the first Q&A that came out from USL.

As SR pointed out there is definitely some USL PR statements in there. I also thought he had some interesting things to say. I am not a NASL website or a USL website. I run a website that reports on soccer. I’ve been accused of being too NASL more times than I can recall and now I’m being criticized for allowing Tim Holt say what he wanted to. I don’t think I gave him softball questions and he answered them. I appreciate that from TIm.

I think part of the problem was the format in that we conducted the interview via email. There wasn’t a lot of chance to respond. I knew that would be questioned but decided to go forward anyway.

It is what it is and I found his answers interesting. Could some of it be questioned. Sure, but the same would happen if I did an interview with Jeff Copper who I have I’ve been wanting to interview for quit some time but he has not allowed me that opportunity yet.

I am just disappointed that you allowed TH to grandstand and let him say they took the high road (which they didn’t) and let him say that they have saved many teams 9which they didn’t) and not question any of his responses but rather allow him to say what he wanted.. dont get me wrong I like your reporting and I think you and kartik did a great job during the USL-NASL debacle but this piece seems a lot to me like a USL infomercial

Whether each NASL team has a “sound” ownership group remains to be seen, and unless you are an insider with NASL, looking at each team owner’s financial statements, you have no foundation to support that statement.

I would forecast that NASL has several teams that are “contractually” bound that will have significant differences of opinion on whether they are “contractually” bound or not.

Well, that kinda sums that up.

Your count may seem correct, but not all is as it seems on that front. You are assuming that all the teams you posted are on board for next year. The insiders at NASL know they still have an uphill battle on their hands.

It will be difficult for both.

Bo, why is it unfortunate that they picked my site to do so and why do you feel I’ve been bias. Maybe you are new to the site, but as I have stated many times previously, I have an NASL team here in town so that is going to influence me, but I am also supportive of many of the things USL has done and it was difficult giving equal coverage last year when I could get NASL people to speak but when I would contact USL no one would even contact me back. Hopefully that has changed with their new PR guy.
