theoneandonly Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Great job to all the kids in the tourney. A "special good job" to that SETX team that brought home the Championship rings!!!! A team that is truely loaded with talented individuals that you will hear about plenty more in the future. 8)
MJB Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Great Job Guys!! They had a good team and a recent acquisition of 2 more playmakers only added fuel to the fire. There is a lot of talent and a whole lot of hustle on this team that we will all be reading about in the future.
knucklehead Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Also, Congrats to the Texas Sting, a Beaumont area team, for winning the Nations St. Patrick Day Showdown hosted at Ford Park this past weekend. Tourney CHAMPIONS for 12U. Great Job Ruben!!!

Maybe now he can get out of the kiddie pool and come up and play with the big boys ;)

getripped Posted March 20, 2012 Report Posted March 20, 2012 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.

Second I think it's ridiculous that if a team or the majority of it's players have been playing select tourneys for 3 years that they should be allowed to play at the bottom level of any organization, whether they're "league" players are not. Lastly you act like "league players" aren't good players, I happen to know many of his players and they make "Allstars" every year, they have plenty of experience to be playing up. I didn't take anything away from his players for winning by my comment, I just challenged him to step up a level..what's wrong with that? SMH

2 Sons Playing Posted March 20, 2012 Report Posted March 20, 2012 :o Wow really? Since my 1st comment has been taking so out of context (which was a just a joke) let me just say..Congrats to Ruben and the Texas Sting for their tournament win.No wonder our society is so screwed up..have a nice day
knucklehead Posted March 20, 2012 Report Posted March 20, 2012 LOL, but it sure sounded like an intentional slam. Tell you what, since you guys claim to have just acquired two more playmakers and are loaded with talent, why dont you enter a 12 u kiddie pool tournament and take a stab at it. SAC

SAC[/quote]First of all I didn't claim any such thing.As for entering a 12u tourney, I have a 10yr old and a 8yr old which one would you like to try and beat up on? I do have to warn you though, the 8yr old just started pitching and has been lights out from 40' mound. ;)As for the slight slam, I was just going by the tourney results and stats posted. Seems like they had a pretty dominating tourney to me and are ready to move up a class. It was said in a jokingly manner and wasn't meant to disrespect any "select" teams. So I apologize if that's how it looked.
knucklehead Posted March 20, 2012 Report Posted March 20, 2012 Nations will take care of their status but let them get one under their belt and taste the victory before you throw them under the bus. You were obviously proud enough of your tournament victory to start in on a thread about it. Are yall that hard up for the world to know that your team won a tournament ;)

This is a thread simply congradulating a team on their win. That team was the 11u Vipers.

diego cruz Posted March 25, 2012 Report Posted March 25, 2012 the system in both nations & u-trip is inconsistant.some teams get moved up very quickly after 1 or 2 tourney wins & some teams win 4 or 5 tourneys & stay in the same division.some coaches sign up in the correct division to challenge their kids to make them better players for the future,but alot of coaches sign up a level lower than they should to get more wins for themselves,then brag about how good they are.this is called sandbagging & the sandbaggers are the ones bragging about how good their are.

I promoted the Texas Sting on your thread because you look foolish when you have to self promote a tournament victory on the forum. I mean, was this like a World Series or State Championship or something? Step it up a notch and play a tourney in Beaumont and see how you do in the 12U select " kiddie pool" Oh, I forgot , you guys got kicked out of Nations! Okay, then play a 12 AA with 20 teams and lets see how it goes! You win that one and I will post your victory on the forum for ya! ;)

theoneandonly Posted March 29, 2012 Author Report Posted March 29, 2012 Ok...so WHEN did telling a bunch of kids "good job" become such a bad thing? Does it really take YOU a World Series win before YOU can begin to tell a team of kids congratulations? I just dont understand why someone (other than a kid) would jump at the opportunity to pounce on someone for doing so. I had no intention of self promoting anything, as you have stated. If you have a problem with someone, take it up with them IN PERSON & stop making yourself look "foolish" by attacking people on a message board post. The post was only meant to give a group of boys an attaboy! That's it. ::)

So when they (usssa/vipers) do something good, knucklehead and rounder17 or gonna come on here and bash them. Just go read over other post on different threads and you will see. Those two coach for Morgan and are Morgan followers. If you go back year after year coaches and parents have came on here and congratulated their team for winning a tournament. NO different here. Dont give me some lame excuse about it was towards 2sonsplaying and his comment. Grow up! Whats funny to me if you look at most of the threads that have been started here lately have been to bash usssa, Gladiators Program vs USSSA, USSSA weekend schedule, Usssa special. So when yall seen this thread yall couldnt wait to start bashing. Me and EVERYONE else see it, its the same ones doing it over and over. We even have caught on to yalls fake names yall come here with. Also yall call out people that yall know on here but have yet to say who you are. Well let me inform you of something we know who you are we just don't care to call you out. If you want to sit behind a screen name and bash a 11 year old team and their coaches go right ahead.
tc hawk Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 And, if you have any question about usssa, (as you seem to do) call you local director. If not, stop asking questions about them.
