Hey guys. Relatively new to this site but i have been reading a lot about the striper cup drama that is going on here and respectively, would like to voice my opinion:
Word on the street was that Team-Striper's Greg Myerson's fish will be disqualified from the teams total with a mistake of, when registering, not filling out the team affiliation as "team Striper".
Contradictory to this i quote ScottW from the "Get Some Sleep" thread.
"The Striper Cup Hi Mike - Policy since year one has been to allow individuals to declare team affiliation at any point in the tournament, but only allow fish going forward to count toward team standings. We have had hundreds of anglers every year, on almost every team, who sign up first and then declare a team later in the season. Thanks for pointing out that we need to clarify that in our rules. Please contact bdean@onthewater.com if you have any questions or would like further explanation. Thanks
Dont get me wrong but he states that he has let "hundreds" of anglers every year who sign up first, declare a team later in the season.
If this is not in the "rules" as quoted above, how could they disqualify the fish? Maybe since On the water is trying to expand to the southern states it would be nice to have a jersey team win???
All this unnecessary controversy over something that isn't in the rules i'm sure will lead to the termination of teams from the striper cup...
