Dang, its Gladfest on the forum this week. How many spots do you have open?

[quote name="Gusher" post="1268314" timestamp="1347461119"] [quote author=getripped link=topic=102874.msg1268110#msg1268110 date=1347419074] [quote author=olddadt49 link=topic=102874.msg1268018#msg1268018 date=1347413940] I don't know what the eighth grade team did, but the seventh grade beat St. Annes eighth grade "B" team 30-0 this afternoon. [/quote]   The cheap shot on the punter was on a kid that just turned 12 [/quote]The player was flagged and asked to sit out the rest of the game. Coaches counseled the kid and I am sure he understands fully what he needs to do in the future. Both tems played well please do not make that one incident of poor judgement take away from the sport that kids play for fun. nice way of putting it, but  the player was ejected from the game by the official for a flagrant personal foul for taking a cheap shot at the punter.  We know that your coaches don't promote or coach these tactics, but it was what it was.  I hate it for both kids that the incident occured.  You have a good team and they are aggressive players and it showed on the field. Good luck, I think your kids will do well this season! 

[quote name="olddadt49" post="1268309" timestamp="1347460874"] You don't know me. I was not boasting. I went to watch a game being played by children. I dont even care about wins or losses in that age group. There is too much stress in that. I only care that  the children have fun and don't get hurt. You dont even know what team I was there to see. I only stated what was on the scoreboard at the end of the game. I did not intend to hurt your or anyone else's feelings about children playing a game. Also I did not know about the team's structure. Sorry for the misunderstanding. [/quote] No big deal, just having a little fun....

LOL,.  I  clarified incorrect information from one of the proud fans who boasted about the 7th grade beating the 8th grade B team, a team that doesnt exist at St. Anne.    I guess you missed the part about Central playing well and being well coached.  Central won fair and square and have a good team. 

That is about par, they know about the fall ball league on the weekends and set the mowing schedule on a Monday.  Did they bale it and roll it or leave the cuttings  to kill the good grass?

[quote name="olddadt49" post="1268018" timestamp="1347413940"] I don't know what the eighth grade team did, but the seventh grade beat St. Annes eighth grade "B" team 30-0 this afternoon. [/quote] St. Anne B team is 6th and 7th grade.  The St. Anne A team is made up of 6th - 8th grade,  some boys play both.  Central played well and are well coached.  The cheap shot on the punter was on a kid that just turned 12

atta boy,  thanks for the bit of info.  Heard the same thing about em today.  Hope the catholic boys are ready to scrap with em...

[quote name="DawgsOfBlue" post="1267203" timestamp="1347335149"] [quote author=americasteam88 link=topic=102894.msg1267081#msg1267081 date=1347327302] I agree, just sit back and enjoy this year.  When people read these kind of post ( 6td 6 carries), its just adding fuel to wanting to beat them, which obviously no one will.  A champion ignores all the garbage and acts like they always been this good, not bragging on numbers or complaining about people talking smack. [/quote]Not bragging at all, people who know us and our kids know we don't roll like that. We don't teach it and the head coach and organization definitely don't allow it. The stats were posted simply because our opponents think we're trying to embarrass them. We're not, our stronger players barely play, try explaining to them why they can't play O after the 1st qtr or can only play D on 4th downs. You think their having fun?? Well their not, they feel like their being punished for being a lil advanced. We could've moved them up to Jrs but why, they don't turn 9 till next summer. Nobody said $hi+ when they were  all 7yr olds playing against majority 9yr olds [/quote] Dawg, let the kids have fun and play to win brotha, that is what your kids want.  The critics of today will be the same ones of tomorrow.  When people quit listening to them, they eventually fade away.  Thank you for stepping up and making a difference in childrens lives!!!!

Maybe Keith Stone can come and mow it and get a break on cost, cuz the county aint gonna step up and do it.  Heck, the grass on the Ford Pavilion hill is better maintained  than the Ford Fields.  When was the last time that thing made any money?

Maybe they didn't use the faster kids for a reason, I don't know but I KNOW that they have fast kids on that team. Just saying...... [/quote] OK.... ;) ;) [/quote] Whatever Lumberton team has the Gladitor, they got all the speed they need!!!!

Whats the skinny on Central Jr. High this year?  Saw Nederland coaches out and about scouting  the St. Anne / Mauriceville game last week. 

Great Job Jasper  11 s, good luck in Tyler! 

Should be a  good un between WELL and Jasper this year.  Sorry to miss the fun rivalary between DF and TM, they make it entertaining.

>:(

does this mean that if my child plays for a gladiator team in Nations that he is not allowed to guest play for another team in a USSSA tournament on an idle weekend?

What happened, did a Gladiator team show up to a USSSA tourney and pass out Nations flyers or something?    I am with Rounder, seems there was an argument several weeks back about how USSSA is for the kids!  Tillery offers discounts so why cant Morgan.  Seems like a business decision to me.

2 sons Playing, was that necessary?  At least he stuck with using League players and hard work, not dumping players and merging teams to finally get a victory after three years.

[quote name="BBGod" post="1191203" timestamp="1330749409"] Wow! That's all I can say. You guys are stating facts about a situation that you know nothing about. One teams is a cheater one took the higher road? I was there and I guess everyone has opinions and I will keep mine to myself for now. One thing for sure is that there was a lesson to be learned and I hope someone learned it! Probably not. [/quote]okay, since you have all of the facts, why dont you share them with us so that everyone can now internalize their own opinion regarding this matter.

I asked that question a few months ago and someone stated something about lawyers and little league and all this other stuff. But to me it sounds like BEAUMONT has its hands full with BASEBALL....... [/quote] That's too long to get in to. I gotta get some work done today, before my boss gets mad at me. Lol [/quote]Hey Rounder, I didnt know that you worked for your old lady!  Let me know when you want to show an old man what you got left in ya from the mound!!!

Nations is 1:40. Forgot to mention tournament director is coaching a team too [/quote] Nations games are not 1:40... Most directors have a team even in Nations.. ;) [/quote] Every game I have played in Nations has been 1:40. I haven't coached younger than 11u though. Where have you played that the director was a coach? BTW, the local Nations guy runs an organization, and doesn't coach a team in any of his tournaments. Hey Rounder, are you a player or a coach? Or, are you like a player manager? [/quote] Both, and I would love for you to step in the box when im pitching. [/quote] I think that you will learn that you are a has been, just like the guy that you challange to step in the box. You two better just stick with the BEAST, keep good BS and call it a day.

The lawyers are for the crybabies at USSSA. Crying that ford park wasn't gonna let them in, so daddy went and got a lawyer. [/quote]  You seem to think you know something.  let us in on it. [/quote] yea, what's up with that.  Seems that Nations is taking their business away in Lake Charles so they want to come here and try it out.  hope they have the $$$$$

[quote name="westend1" post="1095537" timestamp="1319684399"] Heck, I read on here last year where some coach got tossed for going to the bathroom without permission.    :o [/quote] Yea, that is what I heard.  He just ignored the memo.....

[/quote]Westend 1, they are written on a 5th grade level, are you kidding me? [/quote]  Not at all.  Read that stupid book.  Try to sort out which rules apply for regular/all stars.  They change in the middle of the season.  When I coach all stars, i always worry if I might screw something up.  Not only that, they change some rule every year.  You think you know all the rules and then you go back and look, and something has changed. [/quote]LOL, just get an updated rule book and compare it to the prior year, they even provide you with a summary sheet, you know, Baseball for Dummies version!!!
