[quote name="octfeb" post="1068970" timestamp="1317320221"] Can someone tell me, What constitutes and illegal motion of celebration when a ball carrier makes a touchdown? :-\ [/quote] illegal motion can be 2 or more guys in motion at the snap, one or more guys never getting set for one second before the snap, more than 4 in the backfield which is actually a different signal but sometimes gets confused..celebration has been relaxed and is more of a judgement call this year. I can tell you on my crew we let the kids have fun, a little, but never taunt. Some other crews are less tolerant, others are probably more so.

[quote name="football" post="1043149" timestamp="1314508601"] Did DRH ever use the Bmt. officials when playing the mid-county schools?  The long pass was def. out of bounds.  the 2-pt was quest.  Congrats to Nederland and Coach Neumann, great win.  The great coach you spoke of?  Isn't he OC at Texas High now who just lost to vidor?  Nothing against TF I now and like him.  It is just some people treat some coaches on here like deity while bashing others. OFF SOAPBOX NOW! Sorry [/quote] The long pass was def. IN bounds. We saw pics Sunday, taken by a photog on the WOS sideline and he had it frame by frame and the reciever def. got his 1st foot down in bounds. As for the 2 pt. play I'm glad that wasn't my call. The HL that made the call was 100% confident in it and he told me he saw the replay and still feels 100% confident in it. Unfortunately we don't have the time to ask all of you your opinions before we make and call nor can we rely on replays like college and NFL. Great game from 2 great teams. Good luck to both!

[quote name="MrUmp1" post="1032662" timestamp="1312840143"] Better hope it does not rain a bunch between May 19 and May26th. 2 rounds in 6 days could get hairy if weather is a prob. And before anybody says that is 7 days, I am not counting Sunday which you can not play a UIL contest. This also just lets you know that for some schools and people baseball is one of those Oh Yeah sports, Oh Yeah we have a baseball team too. [/quote] How's the knee?

WOW, it's hard to believe that all of this is over a baseball game played by 10 year old children. I have umpired pretty much all of the summer leagues and High School baseball for 32 years and in that span I have ejected 6 people. Two LL coaches, two select coaches, one select player and one HS player. Five for arguing balls and strikes and one coach for acting like he had a bottle rocket in his pants after a close call at first. IN THIRTY TWO YEARS and I can't remember any of my partners tossing more than a small handfull. My point is, it should be rare when it happens. Y'all act like it's an everyday thing. I suggest if your child gets ejected you correct it. I can only imagine how my father would have corrected me. If you are a parent/coach and have been tossed, I suggest you think about how you want your character to be percieved. If you have been tossed more than once, you need to have a long talk with the man in the mirror. Have a better day today!... Tim Summers

[/quote] we divided them up by positions so there would be equal amounts of pitchers catchers infields and outfielders on each team some teams may have a bunch from one or two schools and some schools may have kids on different teams

[quote name="athlete" post="1017593" timestamp="1307715650"] What time dor the players need to be there and what time do the games start? [/quote] The games are Monday and Tuesday at Lamar. The early games start at 5:30 CST with the late game shortly after the end of the 1st game ( 7:30 - 8:00ish). Players need to report an hour before their game time. Monday is 1,2,3A underclass Red vs 1,2,3A underclass Blue followed by 4,5A underclass Red vs 4,5A underclass Blue. Tuesday will pit 1,2,3A seniors Red vs 1,2,3A seniors Blue followed by 4,5A seniors Red vs 4,5A seniors Blue. With maybe a few exceptions. I can tell you we moved Kyle Markum from the 1,2,3A game to the 4,5A game because we needed another catcher. There will be rosters at the games. The teams change almost dailey. I had 2 call me today just returning my calls from last week wanting to play and another called having to scratch out due to back problems. I can tell you as of now I have 22 players on the 4,5A underclass Red team and 12 on the 4,5A senior Red team. The games with 20 plus per team will play 9 innings so all get a chance to participate.

I don't want to take away a long touchdown run from a kid because 50 yds back one of his teammates was acting up. The 15 yarder on the kickoff was usually enough to get the coach to blow his stack.

[/quote] Glad your not bitter or making excuses .....great job Dogs [/quote] So was it okay for the purple player to chew out the umpire(s) all the way into the outfield after a 3rd out strikeout?  Or to throw his bat? Or his helmet?  How about throwing his helmet across the field at the end of the game?  Guess you missed all of that.  Or was it okay because you thought those were bad calls?  Trev argued with the ump only after he was rung up for a 4th straight time - all on questionable called third strikes.  You've known him for a longtime and you know he doesn't typically argue calls or lose his cool. The truth is, it was a hard fought rivalry game with some very questionable calls.  That makes for lots of emotion.  Sure, Trev shouldn't have lost his cool, but it is really easy to understand why he did.  Lots of us fans did too.  We (on both sides) said lots of things that would have gotten us tossed if we were on the field.  We really ought not to be overly critical of either player.  Neither one did anything that crazy and neither one did something stupid and hurt themselves. I guess what I am trying to say is that you need to be careful where you throw your stones.
