I think its more like he thinks he is the expert on softball in middle tn. He knows some stuff sure but hes wrong more than hes right. Doesn't know any more than anyone willing to stand around the park at a tournament or two and just listen to all the rumors gossip and complaining going on. Half truths and inuendo most of it and drawing some maybe right maybe wrong conclusions. Never really figured out the fun of making fun of high school girls on a anon bulletin board but to each his own.

21-B players who are convinced by parents how high school ball is so important and so good and not just practice time between summer seasons.

That's how it was in the good ole days but things have changed. It's not even rec ball level any more it's bad rec ball level. Good players get grumpy because they go backward in school season. People who don't know that haven't experienced good ball yet and htink it's all good. The only reason a lot still play is because there isn't anything else to do. Got to be a record this year for players quitting before the season is over. Got to be a record for players saying they don't want to play and probably wont play next year. Look at signing classes for a lot of colleges this year and see their signees didn't play hschool ball this year. The are starting to pull them off like you ask. Heard a rumor about one alternative might be coming up next year and then they won't have to play any more.

Memphis is their own association that isn't part of Tennessee ASA. Memphis ASA gets one berth to Nationals in all ages. Tennessee ASA gets 4 and it's all separate.

Hope you dont teach science or physics. Might need to brush up on your science and maybe your logic too. How about you tell us how you throw a ball slower from three more feet? Are you suggesting that you slow your arm down because you moved back 3 feet? That's hogwash. You probably throw with more force. Are you suggesting that the distance all 3 feet of it makes the ball slow down more? Surely not. A thrown ball will slow down a little every 10 feet or so but not anything like 5 mph for 3 feet. Cause ITS ONLY THREE FEET!

It's only 3 feet. THREE FEET. 36 inches. And it's not TSSAA. It's the FED that changed the rule. Every state in the country will move to 43 feet no later than spring 2011. If a pitcher can't throw THREE FEET further, then it might be time to learn a new position. Did I say it was ONLY THREE FEET?

A "hit and run" is a play with the batter swinging. correct term is "run and hit" because the runner is stealing. cant do a straight steal home because the runner cant leave until the ball is release by the pitcher so no way to get there before ball unless the pitcher throws slower than 3 mph. on a "suicide squeeze" the runner is moving to steal but the batter has to bunt the ball orelse the runner is way out. Expecting batters to bunt and make contact is way different that expecting them to hit on a swing and make contact. college coaches squeeze but they dont hit and run / run and hit from 3rd. coach might tell her to take off on contact but not to steal and pray the batter makes contact which is what happens on a suicide squeeze.

A hit and run from 3rd base? Coach might have told her to run on contact no matter where it was hit, but a hit and run is a steal play with the batter swinging. If there was a hit and run on, it might be the first time in the history of softball that play was called with a runner on 3rd.

Alot of knock down but not much drag out either game. 9-0 and 16-2. To much pitching. To much hitting top to bottom. Middle of the order was nasty. Not much drop off at the bottom. They are better than I thought they were and they are a lot better than they were the first week in hendersonville even though they were good then. No 10u. No 12u. 11 in 14u. 7 in 16u. 4 in 18u. ASA is broke.

Dont disagree with any of that but still missing the point. She bashes nashvilles participation and the whole story that they only play in nashville and wont travel but she doesnt have any chatt teams in her chatt qualifier. Whree is all the powerful chattanooga support for asa. More nashville teams by far in a chatt qualifier than chatt teams. More knoxville teams. They are traveling but chatt teams arent even qualifying at home. I dont see anything improving. Same ole same ole. Yeah they have more registrations in chatt but it is mainly rec league registrations. Not so in travel. Considering the crap in mid tn asa the last 10 years it is amazing that any mid tn teams still participate. Maybe elite teams do asa but more and more elite teams are going the showcase route in tn and avoiding asa. Way better competition than 2, 2, 5, or 8 team tn asa qualifiers. The nasvhille market is usfa because tn asa keeps screwing it up over and over. Crook has taken advantage of their incompetence. They cant or wont buy in because it is so shoddily run and being bashed by the leaders. ASA used to be top dog in tn even way more than ga is now. Those days are long gone and until national changes their policies and tn asa cleans house and revamps the glory days wont ever be back.

Yet every body keeps missing the point. Every body who has ever been to a asa national knows that the other world series dont hold a candle in competition to that. Thats not the point. The point is that one asa director comes on this board and complains about nashville getting a national qualifier because she says they don't deserve it because nashville doesn't support asa and chattanooga is all that there is supporting asa. Nashville put on the qualifier with a ton of teams and most were middle tn teams that she says doesnt support asa just because they dont travel every week to chattanooga. Not many chattanooga teams made the trip up to nashville. Now she has a qualifier in chattanooga and nobody shows up. 2 12u teams 2 10u teams who are both knoxville 5 18u teams 2 nashville, 1 knoxville, 2 chattanooga and one with a berth 8 16u teams - 4 nashville, 3 knoxville and only 1 chattanooga 12u only has 12 with even split with nashville, knoxville, and chattanooga Add in the 2 teams who have already qualified just so we dont have to hear that argument and pretend they are there both nashville and knoxville have alot more teams than chattanooga playing in a chattanooga qualifier. Chatt might be registering a lot of rec teams so she can talk about how much they support asa there but they arent supporting travel asa anywhere near the level nashville is. All the rec leagues in mid tn dropped asa several years ago under the incompetent leadership of a couple of lame asa directors. They are gone but asa isnt going to get those rec leagues back no matter who is in charge. Tn asa is broken. Its been broken badly for years. They promise they are going to fix it but they dont listen. They dont learn. They dont change. ASA national level is different but they dont listen much either. They have the right connections so they stay on top for now anyway. It is catching up on them but they dont see it coming. In states like tn all this stupid stuff like mandatory bollinger insurance through them at rediculously high prices and id cards and really lame coaching certification, what a joke that is, just to step on the field is going to nothing but eliminate a lot more teams playing asa in tn. Tn asa is still living in 1985 and dont think they need to do anything to stay on top. Crook is kicking butt and taking asa names and its going to keep going until tn asa fixes it all. I think its too late but maybe not. Getting rid of the whole bunch and starting over is a good idea. Hanging on to the glory days and bashing other asa distrcits isnt the way to do it.

All thats fine but its not the point. Shes been bashing Nashville for their lack of support all year but if it wasn't for Nashville and Knoxville there wouldn't be any teams. 2 teams in 2 age groups? Thats a joke. There are only 2 teams in every age division who have qualified and some of them are playing this weekend. Not much of a argument. predators

Nashville - 4 teams Knoxville - 3 teams Chattanooga - 1 team Who is supporting ASA now? 8 teams. Didn't Hendersonville have 18 in 16u? Something is wrong in paradise. 2 12U 2 10U both Knoxville 5 18U - 2 Nashville, 1 Knoxville, 1 Chatt without a berth 14U is "biggest" with a underwhelming 12 teams if they all show. Knoxville more than Chatt "area" teams. Keep on telling us how Chattanooga carries ASA and how bad the midstate stinks in their support. Keep tellng us that ASA is so much better and is the all important governing body of softball from a 20 year old ole boy system resolution with no meaning. All those alphabets with "pseudo world series" as you keep insisting have run off an left ASA in the dust in Tn but ASA won't listen. 29 teams in a national qualifier for all age divisions. That's embarrassing. There are that many in the USFA State in 14u and 16u alone to qualify for world. They have something like 103 teams. Something is real wrong in paradise or am I repeating myself.

Wasn't the 18 Gold Nighthawks. They were put out in the first round after a losing record in pool play. It was the 16U team.

How is that fair? If you are going to 4 teams, it should be the best 4 teams, no matter where they come from. If the best 4 teams are from Nashville, then a Jackson team that is the 5th best team shouldn't go ahead of them - or vice versa.

Cause that would have required a little class and a big ole dose of reality. Id say more but that would make me jsut as classless

And petty narcissistic jealousy rears its ugly head in a ugly way. Time for a reality check. Enjoy the scholly for books only.

m-a-y-b-e i-f I t-y-p-e r-e-a-l s-l-o-w it might sink in your thick skull. How can one person always be sooooo wrong about everything. Friday nite I was sitting here and in came a email from a buddy with a link on it. Email said he just got off the phone with some body who told him about it. Clicked on the link. Watched the video. 32 views by people then. Posted the link on here. Yea go look at post 1 like you said. It says Then there is a quote. If you werent so lazy you can see that it is EXACTLY what is typed in on the you tube page. Look at the top right corner under coachfryermustgo subscribe. Word for word. Yea phatgas I am absolutely sure that I copied it exactly what was on you tube nothing more nothing less. There isnt even any commentary by me no opinions no agreeing no anything. I COPIED IT STRAIGHT FROM YOU TUBE WITH A LINK. Guess what phatgas today a southwest plane caught fire in Houston Plane Catches Fire I wasnt there I didnt take the video. I didnt write the commentary. I dont have a first hand knowledge. It doesnt matter. ITS A LINK. Nothing in post 1 or 2 or 3 says any different. Even on top of that post 3 is to answer post 2 and said EXACTLY that all I did was link it and pass on some news. Ive even answered all this right to you. See post 8. I said it before but you didnt pay any attention. Stupid thing is that the only thing you got from post 8 is some stupid assumption you made that is WRONG. You know what they say about assumptions. Well maybe not. For some reason you made your assumption because I knew nicknames of kids. If you werent so lazy or dense you would go look at MJ roster and see that they arent nicknames they are real names. I should have looked my self because I didnt know how to spell them right. brit, chelsea, and kia should be Britt, Chelsea, and Caya. MJ roster Talk about some super secret nicknames huh. Do you feel like a fool yet? Probably not because you still dont get it. ITS A LINK. I COPIED AND PASTED. THOSE NAMES ARENT NICKNAMES. DO YOU EVER GET ANYTHING RIGHT. 553 views now.

Most of you must not be too familiar with PHargis. Hes wrong all the time. Writes about things he doesnt know anything about. But none of that stops him from posting 10 times a day. When hes confronted with facts he changes the subject and never answers direct questions and comes back with irrelevant things like you never gave him a fact or asked a direct question in the first place even if you ask it 100 times. You arent going to get anywhere with him. Mt juliet high school is a public school it isnt a private or christian school.

Congratulations to these young women Just for information purpose and definitely not to take away from there accomplishments because they still signed The only colleges who are part of National Letter of Intent are ncaa division 1 and most ncaa division 2. community colleges and naia dont. They can sign some papers the school gives them but it isnt national letter of intent. Doesnt really matter but in case people wanted to learn some thing about the way it works Congratulations

ok worden. yes I did post this but I wasnt really going to do much besides post this after I heard about it being on you tube. But your posts just make me crazy. Your arguing things that dont matter. It doesnt matter if he does it one time or a million times the rule is violated. He is going to sit still thats the rule and if he doesnt he broke the rule. He cant do it from the stands its the rule. But he isnt in the stands. There arent any stands on that side of the court. He is in a chair behind the bench the girls are turning around to listen to him. He is running the entire half time. He put in substitutes. When is the last time youve seen a parent put in substitutes from the bleachers. Never. Then he does the post game while your boy curt is doing his job and picking up the balls. That doesnt qualify as spin even. It passed spin in about the 2nd sentence. sad coaches cheat. even sadder people defend cheating. most sad with all that they can't get more than a game out of district when there is a state championship team sitting in the bleachers every year or playing for some body else.

Some questions: 1. Is that high school players or are they 8th graders? high school players - brit, chelsea, kia, and others 2. What makes a copy of an unsigned movie on another site valid and did JoeyT do something to the information? what does "do something to the information" mean. IT IS A LINK TO YOU TUBE. d-e-n-s-e. yea I hacked you tube and altered the video and description 3. Are all of these players MJ players or are they from different schools? MJ 4.Was anyone talked to who made the movie? irrelevant 5. Why did joeyt put it on this site instead of sending it to the TSSAa himself and let the senario play out there? what is Joeyt's motivation? irrelevant. I didn't post it on you tube I COPIED the information. Ever here of drudge report. Its the internet phatgas 6. What school does JoeyT support? irrelevant but I support the girls and rule keepers not a team

Well well worden. Did you even read the post. there is a link to a video on you tube. the quote in the post was copied directly off the you tube site as the description for the video. Quote from you tube poster not me. I just linked it and copied it. did you even watch the video. some body caught him clearly coaching in a AAU tournament on video. lot of ignorance but not in the post. it was just a reporting of another post.

New You Tube posted of one of those coaches. He made some body mad. Told you you werent telling everything you knew about that coach mr dore

Ouch Fryer made somebody mad. They've posted a video on You Tube claiming TSSAA violations. He is even making substitutions from behind the bench. the description posted on the video page is Did I say ouch
