fspitchfan I agree and go further that the nightmare continue to chestthump and it is usually from parents who have to promote there kids... I see one that always tries to move his kid to another team in a "package" with the other studs on the team. I guess the grass is always greener? good luck to doom and valley extreme. all else can go home

5Alive was merely giving some insite on strenth of schedule , wins ,loses ,..then came to a conclusion . Its called a scouting report . At least he had the forthwith to spend some time checking out the other teams records and accomplishments . Its true ,..some teams are tougher than others . Maybe you guys should spend more time scouting than attacking individuals .Regardless of who 5Alive is,... Bink44 is the kind of dad that has helped many girls with hitting and the game . Anyone that attacks him ,..doesn't understand the true investment of time and effort he has spent teaching girls . Many times its girls from other teams around ohio. He does it because he loves these kids . Here's an idea ,...leave the girls out of all the grown up ,crybaby drama and focus on investing in the kids . Good luck to ALL ohio teams ,..were in this together .

Could we just enjoy the score reports, and put aside our egos and the reality that at least 98% of all parents, siblings, etc. will from time to time, get a bit overly proud of our kids, and their teammates?
Life is too short as it is. ?Let's enjoy the bright spots.

LMAO!!!! ?Parents generally grow up by the time their girls are playing 16U and this stuff mostly goes away.

BINK44

I was talking to 5alive. Is that one of your aliases? Or are you just super sensitive parent?

By the way I was talking about not putting labels on teams, just let them play ball.
I have never and will never single out any player for criticism.

One more time now, The Doom Got there asa birth at the Cincinnati metro and
also recieved a birth at the regional Qualifier in Chicago with a 2nd place finish. The Doom has not been on here all year talking about our team or saying were the best, because we are not the best and not even close to being the best, at best we are a mid level team compared to the rest of the USA, we do play hard and work hard thats the only thing I will say about our team.
So with that said can all Doom bashers let it go and leave our name off of here and just post scores of all the great Ohio teams playing out here at the highest level of softball.
Good luck girls.

This is terrible to have to muddle thru this "crap" just to see how the Ohio teams are doing...it's shameful. Geesh! I don't care about who is who, I just am looking for scores and updates. Go Ohio!

All the Ohio teams are still alive!!

The Nightmare and the Valley Extreme played on back to back fields and stunned the Southern cal Wicked (Nightmare 4-3) and Cornona Angels 93 (2-0) - all the Buckeyes were hceering for each other - as were the Lasers Orange folks - it was great to see.
Details of the Nightmare game on previous post.
the Valley Extreme had a tremendous pitching performance by Erin Gabriel for 5 innigns and then Jenna Modic to finish it up. The Angels threatened several times but the VXB never broke.
Lindsay Harrison's blast HR to left with Mel West on after a double in the 4th were the winnign runs.

Lasers Orange played tough to win 2 to stay alive, as did Miami Valley Express.

While it's disappointing one of the 2 excellent Ohio teams (Doom and Laser green) need to face off in the morning - both teams have played very well and opned many 'western" and "southern" eyes

Good luck to all the Buckeye teams tommorrow
