  1. IMHO, Tennessee has too many state champions in all sports. Football is the worst. The privates have a state champion in a division that only has 11 teams in it. Baseball doesn't need 4 public school divisions.
  2. I have a question for you. If there is a dispute on how many pitches were previously thrown and how much rest a kid has had, who do the coaches take the dispute to? The umpire? How is the umpire going to know if the pitch charts are correct or not? The umpire is being asked to rule on something they have no knowledge of. This is going to be a mess.
  3. From Chattanooga Times Free Press, http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/sports/preps/story/2016/sep/01/new-regulations-meant-keep-prep-pitchers-heal/384431/.
  4. Question, do you count warm-up pitches in the total? I mean if a kid warms up for 15 minutes and throws 40-50 warm-ups....just saying. And as far as number of batters faced, that's kind of iffy, sometimes a pitcher throws 1 pitch sometimes 10. I guess you could average. Like I said, this is going to be a mess, all in the name of "appearing" to be concerned with kid's health.
  5. There are no protests in Tennessee HS baseball games. cbq, you said it is simple then described something that is anything but simple.
  6. Here you go http://www.chattanoogan.com/2016/7/15/328097/McCallie-Hires-Tim-Costo-as-Head.aspx.
  7. I predict this is going to be a mess. Like others have said, who's going to keep the pitch count? Either coaching staff has a vested interest in "fudging" their counts. Base umpire? No way. Maybe, a third official to keep pitch counts and count coach's warnings.
  8. Only one in probably a million have a chance to make millions of dollars. So, what difference does it make if some kid throws on 1 or 2 days rest?
  9. Farragut 13-0 over Morristown East.
  10. I don't know if he was, but I was at Siegel Monday. Good game, Siegel is good.
  11. What is TSSAA's rule? That one team gets all revenue for consecutive years if a game is moved due to one site being unplayable? There is no such rule. I think the word you're looking for is GREED.
  12. That is completely untrue. Hixson offered to move the game to Hixson on Friday, but Marion Co. wanted the complete gate and complete concessions if it was moved. And, they wanted all of both next year at their place, too. Get your facts straight.
  13. Ya'll have the absolute, strangest posters on this thread. Half of the posters talk about themselves in the third person. WEIRD.
  14. I'd be willing to wager that all of the top teams in EVERY classification have played over 30 games already. Find something else to get onto Farragut about. RANK SCHOOL 5/3/15 W L CLASS 1 Farragut 31 5 AAA 2 Christian Brothers 28 8 D2AA 3 Sevier County 32 5 AAA 4 Clarksville 27 8 AAA 5 CAK 28 5 AA 6 Bartlett 24 6 AAA 7 Knox Webb 20 3 D2A 8 Houston 25 6 AAA 9 Arlington 27 3 AAA 10 CCS 25 2 AA This is the latest All Class ranking from TBCA.org.
  15. There is a particular decorum to be observed prior, during and after the playing of the National Anthem. The practice of the "stand-off" after the Anthem is disrespectful and should be dealt with as such. If you don't understand, talk to a veteran.
  16. FYI, I saw Lindner play at Hixson this year when Hixson beat them 39-34.
  17. Funk from Central was the best running back we saw all year. And I saw both. Central 21-14.
  18. http://www.dnj.com/article/20140527/SPORTS08/305270060/1006/rss02. This is kind of a shocker.
  19. I might make it to the Reservation, but it looks like AA and AAA for me. Boyd is in our Region. I'll know about 1:00 CST tomorrow!
  20. I doubt I get to Riverdale, isn't A there? There is a team from my area that made it in A, so I may not work A. I wouldn't be surprised if we have this one Monday, but they told us the field was covered and we are playing. Take care my friend.
  21. I bet they wait. Our crew still has a AA Sectional to work and it's pouring. Probably should have played yesterday like it was scheduled.
  22. Plus, what advantage is gained?
