Chad has been appointed the permanent position. 

First off, congratulations to Chad. 

Now there are bowlers at the top on the paid side and on the elected side with Chad and Andrew Cain as President.  Time will tell if a bowler has better vision for the organization than the businessmen that proceeded him.

I can.  Bowlers that have no idea what the casual league bowler (in other words 90% of USBC members) wants from the bowling experience aren't going to be any better than having non bowlers in place.  There's a huge lack of balance and perspective at the top.  Focusing on the sport is great, but when you destory your organization by alienating most of your membership, you really didn't help anything.
