Are you kidding me? This was a mockery today. No one who has been working tirelessly to change things in the game, and that have been making progress, were representated.. Their efforts were obfuscated by lies, misrepresentations and innuendo. I'm surprised that someone that makes their living in the game would perpetuate the crap that we just listened to for 4 hours... It's irresponsible to be unaware of what is actually being attempted and accomplished.
Sorry to be harsh about it but accepting the bullsh+t from the likes of Jess Jackson is outrageous.

I have to strongly disagree with you. I think these hearings were a huge positive. This is the first time that I have ever been optimistic that this sport is finally going to be cleaned up. I thought that each and every one of the panel members were eloquent in their testimonies.
You refer to what we heard at the hearings as "crap". You call some of the testimony "lies and misrepresentations". Tell me specifically some of the things that were said that were lies and/or misrepresentations.
I didn't hear any major point that was not true. I pretty much agreed with everything that I heard. I was thrilled that all the things that I've been saying for a long time were finally being talked about.
You say that "It is irresponsible to be unaware of what is actually being attempted and accomplished." You better explain it to me. What is being attempted and accomplished? I didn't realize there was some great conspiracy here. I must be in on the conspiracy too since I not only agreed with pretty much everything that was said at those hearings, but I've been saying many of those same things for a long time.
