    usually any shoe or boot repair shop can do it... If it's not too much you can buy some leather and a re-lacing tool from any sporting goods place and do it yourself.

    The kids name is Dylan Hendricks.  His mommas last name is Moss.  Is sounds to me like Keith Stone read all of the mommas rants last night on FaceBook and got on here to start stuff.  I find it hard to believe that Keith Stone has any clue as to what he is talking about when he doesn't even know the kids name.  Good try though!  ::)
    [/quote]I got you Mack ..The kid can hit sometimes he had 5 long balls.. He tied with Feltman on league leading home runs...But the game is not just about the long ball.. ;)
    [/quote]There is more to the game than home runs.If you play for home runs you will not play too many games.We need a strong (D) to win.

    Kid can flat out pitch, will always remember the outing he had last year in game 2 in the playoffs vs BH.  [b]Best HS performance I have seen by a pitcher.[/b][/quote]

    I second that brother !!!    I don't think anybody that attended that game will forget Brown's performance that night.  And I know the fellas in the Eagle's dugout will talk about that for some time as well.  Excellent pitcher !!!!

    Why is everyone giving this guy a hard time? He is putting kids in front of scouts, not an easy thing to do.

    These guys are doing something good for our kids an we should back them 100%.Keep up the good work thanks for helping these kids.
    Agree 100%.  Why are people so quick to shoot holes in a guy trying to help out local kids?  Might the costs paid help defray the costs of bringing all these scouts in?  In case you haven't heard, the State of Texas, along with many other states, are cutting the budgets of most universities.  Which directly impacts athletic budgets.  So to get a gathering of all these scouts, maybe he has to offer to pay some of their expenses?  The "what's in it for him" is that by gathering all these scouts, maybe he can get a full combine, so he can scout players for his college.

    Funny how so many people are quick to take credit for a kids success on this board.  But criticize those who legitimately give a kid opportunities.  DaBears-if people listened to you, no one would get recruited.  Just send out e-mails and wait for them to come to your high school game? (perhaps a high school coach?)  Insane.  To get recruited today, not only do you have to have talent, you have to be seen.  Being seen today, means being in the right place at the right time.  Unless you have a kid on your high school team throwing low 90's or an athlete who is a legit 5 tool player, or be playing against one of these types of players, you won't get seen just by playing high school ball.  Of the 2011 class who signed on to play college ball, very few did it by just playing high school ball.  They were seen with their select team playing in a summer tournament, they were seen at a college prospect camp, they were seen at one of these combines, they were seen at one of the Monday night games that Fackler runs, and they were seen at a Perfect Game, or simlar camp.  In order to be seen, you need to attend these combines, you need to go to as many college prospect camps as possible, you need to get on a summer team that travels to college venues, or close to college venues.  All of which, cost money.  As a parent, you have to determine if the benefit out weighs the cost.

    There isn't one magic bullet to being seen, then ultimately getting a scholarship.  It is a long and arduous process that involves a little luck and a lot of hard work.  Coach Harrington is simply giving kids another option to "being seen".  Is that so bad?

    What got everyone a little aggrivated it Rounder posted without Dup we may not win. Dup is a great addition to the Bulldog team but one player doesn't make a team. If for some unfortunate reason Dup can't play Thursday, it will be sad but I know we have one heck of a bench that can step up and play. Good luck this weekend Dogs!!
    [/quote]rounder 17 you must be blind nederland is very deep in pitching,Brown,Pitts,Sonnier,and the rest of the dogs are some of best that a coach could ask for.This team is very good one player will not change it,we are very deep on the bench.Dogs in 2. Go Dogs!!!!!!!!!!. come watch the dogs win. Feltman

    That is exactly what I thoughtSomeone said said the Bulldogs might lose, and all the Nederland fans get upset, and accuse me of saying something bad and starting rumors. This is an opinion forum, and if you don't like my opinion than tough crap. Duplant is the dogs best pitcher, and if he wasn't able to play, then I think you guys would have lost. Best of luck to you guys. Believe or not I hope you guys win, and think yall have a shot at going a long way.

    I won't leave a comment for you Mr. Sonnier, I will keep that one to myself.  Have a good day.
