I would not expect you to understand this, being that your only experience is northeast softball.
All of the teams on the best fields could beat "any sucky startup team". So could most teams on the satellite fields. Doesn't mean they aren't a middle of the road team getting field preference over better teams with more recruitable talent. Or again, not even playing at age group. There are a number of 14U teams that I would have no problem having playing up in this showcase. These were not them.
The post is not about calling teams sucky and saying that your BB team can whip on any team that was not at your field. I think you might be the newbie.
The original post was about a guy complaining the his location had no field maintenance and no snack bar, & he was pissed that he paid for that service. I guess he is undeserving of those services cause your team is better then his.
Then his post was jacked & turned into if you do your work colleges will come find you and see you play. Then it turned into Anti trust issues.....
Now to your point that all the teams not at your site suck I can think of a handful of teams that were not at Harvard that could beat any of those 16u teams on any given Sunday. Note the word could.
