Luis “Kiko” Pires rebuttal to Criolosports and Tarde Desportiva NELASA 2010 Resumo

First and foremost I would like to congratulate criolosports for its commitment, dedication and overall contribution. After watching Tarde Desportiva NELASA 2010 Resumo, I felt the personal critiques levied on the 3 past presidents for the shortcomings of NELASA as a league this year were unfair, nevertheless I empathize with their frustration. Overall I enjoyed the program and I have lots of respect for Tatu, Yuka & Mariano, however I respectfully disagree with at least one of their assessment which I felt compelled to rebut.
As correctly stated NELASA has a bylaw which addresses almost very imaginable scenario with some clauses open to interpretation and it has a clear process in which every team can contest should they feel inclined to. It is this bylaw that runs the league, the executive branch led by the President is simply there to enforce it . In my opinion very few people within NELASA have taken time to familiarize themselves with this bylaw in which Bibi & Betinho have done so. It’s also clear, in order to assume the position of the President of the league one must become familiar with its bylaws which not an easy task.
I have personally witnessed in amazement the personal sacrifice of family time and even their (Bibi, Betinho & Chy) own work (job) in order to address NELASA matter simply because teams have a habit of waiting for last minute. When one looks at it up close, being the President of NELASA today is a second job with no pay, plenty of scrutiny and not enough act of gratitude or kindness.
I have never once felt that Bibi, Betinho or Chy were trying to give their affiliated teams an advantage and I was there. As far as Bibi is concerned he acted very professional, displayed leadership and is one of the handful within NELASA that clearly has all the right attributes to be its president. It was just unfortunate Bibi had to resign in the manner he did, but knowing the dilemma he was facing I don’t blame him; instead I thank him for all of his contributions.
I believe that Chy was not prepared to assume the presidency mostly because she was not afforded the realistic time which is necessary. Yet she assumed the role courageously under immediate scrutiny which could only lead to her resigning or hardening her pride. She chose pride and it isolated her from those closest to her therefore compromising the transition from the beginning. But towards the end she started to figure things out, she made great personal sacrifice only to be defamed and have her personal character attacked in a very despicable manner, mostly by those she was serving.
As far as Betinho, he’s arguably the most instrumental person in this league and he genuinely cares for this league. He is the ideal person to run NELASA today and tomorrow or at least until someone can match the many qualities he brings to the table, he should be celebrated. In my opinion, NELASA should do everything possible to embrace Betinho and implore him to remain as president because he's that good and this is just me acknowledging a spade.
In closing, NELASA has a great tradition, a great bylaw and system that prevent corruption or any act of abuse no matter who is the President. The league belongs to the teams, and the teams have not taken the responsibility of this ownership. It seems that teams just want to address their individual concerns & play. I believe that the teams need to make a conscious effort to get involve, through volunteering, and working collectively on addressing league matters side by side with the executive arm.
As always keep up the good work and lets try to uplift and encourage each other and I’m sure we’ll be much better off!

Respectively Yours
Luis H Pires aka Kiko
