Shameless plug; have they even played a game yet or should we just give them the trophy and save the trip to Panama City?

Was this the same Thunder team that was playing USFA "A" State in Beaumont??? If so, they will be a middle of the road team, even in PC. Average at best.....have some quality pieces, but lack depth at pitching. JMHO

Why would that be funny? Move up to A, run rule teams there, and then maybe we'll laugh with you. Run ruling B/all-star teams is really nothing to brag about. I wonder what the Texas Thunder bracket play record is against A teams? Anyone know?

Who cares what they did in a pool game? Teams usually do not have their players in their main position, or they give their non-ace pitcher some work because it means nothing.

And I agree with the previous post, play up and see if you still can run-rule the stronger teams.

The Texas Thunder(Nederland) playing in A beat the Crush. Crush did not play B. The Texas Thunder( Houston) playing B has only played a handful of tournaments before going to USFA and while they did well they ended up 7th. Does that make a strong statement for how well they will do in Florida? I would say the jury is out on that. I do wish them the best of luck though.
