Tim Bomgren is a professional Beach Volleyball player. If he isn't NOBODY is . . . you cannot constrain players due to "fiscal paradigms" . . . AVP hasn't been profitable since 1998, so should we start checking people off the lists? Were the pro baseball players, who were paid WAY below regular wages, not professional players? I know this argument could be assailed from many directions and poked holes in with many "examples", but let me restate: Tim Bomgren is a beach professional. Bomgren is a Professional Beach player that has another profession priority over Beach Volleyball. Is that really the definition of a professional? Maybe it is...... Nope. Volleyball is not his first priority or profession. It’s his hobby. Like hustling rent money playing ball…

I think 1/2 of my opinion is to stick up for the pro's I watch and follow and the other 1/2 is a legitimate "professional". We REALLY can't have 6 or 7 male professional beach volleyball players IN THE UNITED STATES, IMHO, so, thus it is said, "Tim Bomgren is a pro" . . . Q.E.D.

There will be a lot more teams to sign up. Beach volleyball players always wait till the last day to sign up for some reason.

What happened to Rosie/Drost? I spoke with Avery at the 6-man and he told me Sean was having some knee issues.

He failed to qualify in every event in the Champions Cup Melissa Pavan failed to qualify for an AVP event when she got toasted in the Qualifier. No longer a professional, and only became one after the next main draw she made? Was not aware that players are no longer considered professional when they fail to qualify for a given tournament.

I didn't say Tim wasn't a professional for that reason, merely corrected the record on that. BTW Melissa Pavan is absolutely, 100% not a professional beach volleyball player
