Ha ha. Good one. All I will say is that there are many highly regarded teams about which you hear none of this nonsense. And I have given up golf.

Porcupine,

You’re really sxxxx! Don’t confuse things….I agree w/some of the stuff you posted, but dropping out of “High School” and getting “Pregnant” has nothing to do with a softball coach. You really need to be on the website taking Parenting Classes, not gossiping.

Yes, but have you given up abandoning your team at Nationals after telling those girls that none of them deserve to be FIRECRACKERS. Talk about parents not being in their right minds when choosing a coach .... and have you given up kicking folding chairs and such when your daughter is not pitching up to your high standards???

[Abagado]

Not that I am really a lawyer or anything. But, you all do realize that your identities may be revealed when the records of hey bucket are subpeoned to summon you as witnesses in court based on what you posted here. Just my .02. That will be $350 please.

Thats spelled "Abogado" newbie and that will be -$150.02.......

Ok. As long as you don't sue me for melpractice, I agree.

This thread indicates that we are all losing sight of what we are trying to do as coaches, and that is to teach the girls to the best of our abilities how to play the game of softball.

For the record, I am not porcupine!!

Both Amie & Kenny have done a great job with their teams and will continue to instruct their players to be the best they can be.

In the 10's my daughter played for Amie and we decided to move on. By know means did that mean we were never appreciative of the effort and commitment that Amie & her staff provided my daughter. Through that experience, I know what kind of commitment and passion Amie has for her girls.

Both the Rebel & Angel organizations are fine organizations and I know both will continue to stay on the course of excellence through the leadership of coaches like Amie & Kenny.

Let's remember, both of these coaches are just trying to help these girls and their commitment should be commended.

New Username only 4 post huh? That was quick, didn't expect you to respond so quickly. Tell us about the certain player you left at Nationals who you were personally responsible for and left her to come back with other parents because you were mad at your team last year at Nationals? See what happens when you throw a couple darts ten come right back at you!!

I have posted on this subject already a couple of times and it is unfortunate that I still think that the parents of the Rebels don't understand that this sport is for their daughters to play and not for them to live through their daughters.

Everytime my daughters team has had the Rebels on the ropes they become obnxious and try to intimidate the opposing team with there chants and yelling Rebels to the girls when they come off the field (opposing team).

If this is what they have to do to win a close game for their team, I don't consider it a true win in my book. Distraction, Intimidation and being obnxious has nothing to do with Talent, Ability and Perserverance.

And one more thing! Is there any consequences for these teams actions like suspensions from tournaments or anything? Or is this behavior going to be able to just be blown off until it happens again (which it will until there are sanctions).

This is not the Rebels this is personal. The Rebels weren't at Nationals...............Try again
New Username only 7 post (Kekambus). Did I get under someone's skin?

Okay we are on the final stretch.
I have heard from a reliable source that both teams involved in the Surf City Tourney scuffle have been suspended from any Surf City Tourney for one year. Not just the teams but the coaching staff as well. The suspension will follow the coaches for 12 months no matter where they are coaching. Surf City Tourneys are not taking any sides and feel that both teams are at fault. Everyone should learn from this and move forward in a positive direction. With that being said please lets move on and make your next post something constructive,
Thanks and have a great fastpitch week
