So how was that Toys for Tots this weekend.

That Toys for Tots Tournament, is that Nations or USSSA?

[quote name="VPATH" post="1141626" timestamp="1323288607"] I agree, all wood. Or, for heaven's sake, USSSA, Nations, Pony, Little League, etc. all need to sit down and come up with 1 set of bat rules. Right now, it's ALL about the $$$$$$. [/quote] That would be a great ideal, but then someone have to say whether or not Ash bats are allowed, vs Maple or Oak or Peacan, Pine or Mesquite.... Or maybe a sythetic wood bat is gonna be available.

Ha. Who would have thought 10 years ago it would this complicated to buy a kids bat. Ugh. Let go to all wooden bats.

Good. Glad we don't have to travel so early in the year.

Baseball is around the corner, when's the first local Tourney all the local teams are gonna try out first. Just seems to cold to play in Dec, Jan.  Wonder how the weather is going to be for that Feb 18th USSSA Tourney at Ford Park.

[/quote] Better check if it's legal in LL cause I'm pretty sure select only allows for a -10 drop. -12 is too light for Nations and USSSA. I think.

[quote name="coachdaddy" post="1128706" timestamp="1322099378"] Well we got it in. It's got great pop, but hit inside the barrel and it stings my son. Hope this one lasts longer than the TPX He used this past year. [/quote] So you got the XL??

We're ready!!!

Look, I'm not one of "those" dads that likes to brag but he used the Rival as his select big barrel and hit one out at those parks in Westlake The Lithium Worth is a great bat but not very durable. It will dent... no doubt.

If #28 for PNG or #10 was my son, I would be furious that the coach would work him Like a government mule and not if but when he gets hurt, you toss him to the curb like an old pair of shoes. I see this all the time in baseball, the same "Dominate" pitcher pitching every game 100 pitches for 6 months a year and at 17 yrs old needing "Tommy" sueguery. All for what..... For the coach to get his "Tropy" that will sit on his mantel and collect dust while a kids body is ruined for thr rest of his life. [/quote] Thats a VERY general comment and most of it is simply not true......the coaches that do what you mentioned are very few, and please do not use such a wide brush to paint all of us coaches the same. There are also BAD parents, but very few, and I don't see coaches using a wide brush to label all parents bad...... I won't even respond to "icancyourmind" as it does not deserve a response [/quote] I just have one question for you to answer. Why did #28 from PNG-W and #10 (the 7 or 6 yr old "Monster") from Nederland carry the ball 9 out of ten times and never very came off the field. His actions are louder than your words. Where as the actual Superbowl winners had a more balance "Team" approach.....  BTW. I'm a coach and a parent of many sports.

[quote name="coachdaddy" post="1117432" timestamp="1321243627"] so why did you choose the xl over the S series? which one does your son have? 1 or 2? [/quote] Actually we bought the Easton Omen XL not the XL.  Sorry but I had to go check the bat.  In feb or march we'll get the Easton Omen XL big barrel for select. What size does he use, I may be willing to sell it since we are not playing little league this year.

[quote name="coachdaddy" post="1116376" timestamp="1321160987"] Any knowledge on the easton S1, S2, XL1, XL2??? [/quote] My son has hit several home runs with that XL bat and one in last years LL All-Stars that went about a mile.

[quote name="icancyourmind" post="1115458" timestamp="1321142817"] The Junior Superbowl was a thriller. Congrats to WOS and hold your heads up PNG W. You guys did an amazing job this season, just keep working for next year. Now to #28, that kid is HEAD, SHOULDERS, AND HIPS above everyone in this league and he proved it again today. He pulled that team nearly single handedly into contention. I have never seen that on this level before. I believe most would agree that this PNG W team is much easier to handle without him there. If he had ANY SORT of COMPLIMENTS OR HElP, WOS would have lost this game. WOS has multiple talented guys at multiple positions and it played to there advantage today. People we may well be looking at the next SETX pro player in the making. Enjoy it!!! [/quote] WOW!!!!!!!!!!!  Unbelievable!!!!!! You spit in the entire teams face of PNG-W, coaches and and players. I didn't see #28 snap the ball to himself, didn't hand the ball to himself, pass the ball to himself. It's a team sport. Hey Dad, if you want to claim your son single hand won a sport, put him in golf or track or singles tennis.... That way its all him and you can say wish the "Team" would have won. This is not the first thread I've read about this kid single handedly wins a game. I've never read anyone other post about WOS #4 bragging about him winning the game or about #9 and #25 of PA or 78 for LC. So if you say that he's the team, then he a lone is to blame for PNG losing the Superbowl. There is NO "I" in Team.

[quote name="bigtexn" post="1103173" timestamp="1320332271"] Where in Orangefield will the practices be? [/quote] At the Game field if the jr football league behind the high school.

The South will practice Nov 7th, 8th & 10th from 6:00 to 7:30 in Orangefield while the North will practice mostly likely in Lumberton at most likely the same times and days. But I can not confirm the North exact schedule.

[quote name="jlh370" post="1086044" timestamp="1318870545"] I have had the opportunity to see these kids play #4 WOS fast and shifty probably MVP of league #25 PA fast close second to #4 #9 PA great qb with speed and a cannon # 78 Defensive MVP hands down # 26 BC plays both ways love this kids intensity # 8 and 9 Lum kids are the studs on this team and it shows     Qb for PN accurate arm   Qb Orangefield kid can flat out play needs more weapons Offensive line edge is hard as you couldn't go wrong with PN, WOS or Ned Defensive Line LCM Future studs # 5 PA junior, #4 WOS, running back PNG Dayshaun #2 PA junior, Edge for MVP PA# 5 and he is only 9 years old [/quote] Agree with all. FYI. QB for OF is a young 10 yr old that Played up to help complete a Sr team for OF.

[quote name="footballking" post="1045145" timestamp="1314742602"] After watching the lcm and wos sr game...which i think had the two best players in the stjfl in it( 4wos and 78 lcm). I dont see anybody stopping #4 from wos. I believe wos wins it all! [/quote] Ha. PA has about 7-8 kids that are bigger than #78 and way faster than #4. Props to PA kids and coaching staff for playing a very respectable game and showing Tons of Class.

We'll save our "scrimmage" for the Superbowl!!

Big Game tomorrow. BC vs Nederland @ 7pm. Should be a good one. Get there early cause it's standing room only.
