--What new organization?
ReplyDeleteYes, what new organization and who would be running it?
ReplyDeleteDid you know the USCF was founded in 1939, and it has promoted chess for almost seventy years?
Isn't there an organization called NACA? Maybe they'd be the independent organization. If not, maybe the Canadian Chess Federation could take over.

ReplyDeleteThat explains it: Senility is setting in.
If they've had seventy years to promote chess, they haven't done a very good job have they?
ReplyDeleteWhere are the sponsors? Where are the big-money events on TV? Where are all those American top-10 players?
Nowhere, that's where.
The USCF is a bunch of infighting amateurs (at both chess and business) that can't get anything done.
Feh.
