Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
You do more chess promotion than the USCF! Amazing!
These conveniently first-posting anons are transparent & tiresome.
One would assume that as fiduciaries, all USCF board members would perform such promotion to further (directly and indirectly) the interests of USCF. Board membership is not an instrument for self-promotion.
But board membership IS an instrument for self-promotion – ask Bill Goichberg!
Thank you Susan for helping!

I hope to play in Pete’s event if my schedule permits….

I would agree that Goichberg has difficulty separating his business interests from USCF’s. But his critics have also failed to perform their fiduciary duty.
