| April 25, 2014 d45 160 posts | Southwest Nationls I would like to congratulate Git R Done men's 65 team. It was the typical Scrap Iron Git R Done battle in the Southwest Nationals. We had to play them twice to win the championship and we did. They did the same thing to us in 2013, almost a year to the day from this year's tournament. That is really not what I want to emphasize. I want to say what a pleasure to play Git R Done because everyone on their team is a gentleman. They exemplify what true sportsmanship is all about. Win or lose, they congratulate each of our players in a manner that you know is genuine. I hope that our Scrap Iron Classics team makes them feel the same way. It is a tribute to Jerry, their coach who sets the culture for their team. I know we will have more epic contests down the road, but it is always a pleasure playing your team, win or lose. Thank you Git R Done for setting the model for all Senior softball players. DuWayne Pillard Manager for Scrap Iron Classics |

| April 27, 2014 IRISHJER Men's 65 2 posts | At the RISK of making this sound like a MUTUAL ADMIRATION Society, which is not my intent, The GIT R DONE 65's feel a great Friendship & camaraderie with SCRAP IRON CLASSICS. I have heard comments from folks observing our games & ALL our players actions, that are confused by our FRIENDSHIP(S) & the COMPETITIVE nature with which we play one another. Thanks DuWayne for giving me credit, but I just got very LUCKY & corralled a GREAT group of guys, just like you have. I believe both teams are happy for the others success even though one may be on the losing end of the battle. I know each of my teammates look forward to future battles. I can say that never in all my years playing ball have I ever enjoyed looking forward to playing a team as much as SCRAP IRON CLASSICS You just need to 'set' COWBOY & GATOR more often. Tell Randy we wish him luck with his pending surgery. Jerry McGee Git R Done 65's |
| April 28, 2014 d45 160 posts | Hi Jerry, you are so true in the assessment of both teams. It is a pleasure mananging the Classics. I give a great deal of credit to four other ass't coaches who do an excellent job as well. We are difinitley going to miss Ranison. He hadn't picked up a bat in a month or played ball. He came to this tournament just having eye surgery, still has one to go, plus he is having rotator cuff surgery today(4-28) He is definitely a warrior!! I will give him your well wishes from Git R Done. Give all the men on Git R Done my best, and you you as well Jerry. DuWayne |
