Cowboy Wisdom
From a wise old cowboy, Harry Payne on the USCF Issues Forum. The last
two paragraphs say it all:
"I am always amazed by, Paul's claims of greatness in promoting spice.
It does not show in the finances claimed in the tax information, unless
somehow they are not getting claimed, or shown. Spice's biggest output
seems to be in using the name of Texas Tech. And their jobs there, Susan
is to be a Chess Coach, an Paul PR for Spice (Not Texas Tech.). To this
point I have not heard of any great improvement in T.T.'s Chess team. I
have heard of one major sponsor who stated he was not putting any money
in spice, because of the actions and responses of Susan and Paul to his
inquiries.
I do remember Paul's claims, during the campaign, of some "Million
Dollar Deals" But have heard nothing since.
I have also heard about Paul's great expertise in the Chess promotion
field, but have failed to see much of that. I remember Paul's claims of
some great promotional plans he had for the USCF,(That would be
implemented when he was elected) But I have not seen any of those, or
even heard about a proposal. I have ask several in the USCF, and they
have not heard or seen anything. At some time it would seem to be time
to stop talking and start showing. If one walks around saying I am a man
long enough, sooner or later someone is bound to say "Prove it"
All I have seen since the election is what I saw before the election
from Susan and Paul "Nothing" Now I hear the same things I heard before
the election. How the dirty politicians are stopping them from
accomplishing anything, how bad the USCF is, what awful members (the
ones paying the bills) are.
About the many terrible threats and abuse Susan's children are suffering
from those majority of the EB, and their political friends, How those
dirty politicians are framing Paul, and will not allow him to defend
himself. How Paul has the answer to the financial problems the USCF is
facing, and how quickly Paul could fix that problem.
I am amazed how a man with such great PR skills, and money making
abilities, is working for his wife, who is a chess coach, at Texas Tech.
I think all the problems would be solved if Paul went out into the job
market, went to work, made some of those "Million Dollar Deals" he is
always referring to, and give a little to Spice, and the USCF. I mean he
has loads of those deals going all the time, He says. IMO"
