Author USCF has voted again to move to Crossville
Sam Sloan

2004-10-19, 12:45 am

The USCF Executive Board took a telephone vote yesterday and voted to
move to Crossville, Tennessee. In so doing, the board refused to
consider offers from Liberty, New York and from Kansas.

The vote was 4-3 with Marinello, Shaughnessey, Shutt and Hanke in
favor and Brady, Schultz and Bauer against.

It is now an open secret that Beatriz Marinello plans to fire Bill
Goichberg and replace him with herself. How she plans to do this is
unclear. She will presumbly need four votes other than her own and
Bauer is no longer a guaranteed vote for Beatriz.

Nonsense, they considered them and ruled them out.

Nonsense, only Brady voted against it.

Nonsense, Bill's agreement expires December 31, 2004. It is well known that
the position of ED can directly affect his CCA business. As such it wouldn't
be fair to the Bill to reappoint him and leave him open to self-dealing
claims.

Given that Bill Goichberg's term as unpaid ED expires December 31, how is he
being FIRED?
