| April 1, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | 2011 SSHOF selections To all of you that are in the Senior Softball Hall of Fame, Ray Wimbaugh has been nominated for the Class of 2011 HOF. Ray has proven himself as a class guy on and off the field. Most will know him as the crafty pitcher and tough batter for Turn Two, a 60 Major plus team from Virginia. He is most deserving of your vote. Good luck Ray! |
| April 3, 2011 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Bruce, you, as usual are correct. Ray-Ray is most deserving of induction. He will receive my vote. |
| April 3, 2011 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Bruce, I haven't seen any information about the Class of 2011. Where can I see the list of nominees? Thanks, |
| April 3, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | LL, I got this unofficially from someone in the SPA organization. I was told there would be 32 nominees for 2011. |
| April 3, 2011 sliplayer Men's 60 70 posts | Ray-Ray deserves to be in the HOF and so does Bruce. Both of you guys have my vote this year. I believe Rick Perez out of Las Vegas is up for nomination as well. SLi |
| April 4, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Rick Perez is indeed deserving! I believe my time will come later. Thanks, though. |
| April 7, 2011 canIjack Men's 60 322 posts | Yea Rick Perez definitely should go into the Senior Softball Hall of Fame, plus a few more of those Las Vegas Stars. Man,that was an awesome M+ Team. He also picked up a few more World Chanps Rings with the Marvicks in 2006 just before he retired. Good Luck Rick,you are deserving like Bruce said. Kennard |
| April 7, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | I told Steve Imay a story about our 50 major plus team, Old South/Miken. It was 2004 or 2005. We had dominated all the 50 teams in the southeast and were excited about going the the SPA Nationals in Plano. I forget how it played out but we won our first game and had to play the Las Vegas Stars that night. We were thinking who are these guys??? Long story short, they demolished us. I know Steve played for them, maybe Hank. It sounds like Rick also played for them. They were a GREAT team!! |
| April 8, 2011 sjuhoops 145 posts | Hey Bruce. I was not with them for that tourney but they did ask me to play in two other tourneys as they were a little short. They were an awesome team. They would have given our Dan Smith a run for our money(haha). Rick and Steve both played with them. Hope the HOF calls you soon as you surely deserve it. Good luck and hope to see you on the road this year. Hank |
| April 11, 2011 sliplayer Men's 60 70 posts | Bruce and Kennard Thanks for mentioning the LV Star’s team it brings back many positive memories and reminds me why we all play this great game- competition and people. I believe we all have teams that are special to us (could be a new thread). It’s great to remember the players, competitors and the games that we played against teams you weren’t supposed to beat but did! Sorry didn’t mean to steal this important thread…. SLi |
| April 11, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Steve, don't look at it as stolen or hijacked! It's great to read you comments. |
| April 11, 2011 Funk 66 posts | It is amazing to me that Rick Perez is not already in the Hall of Fame...Rick is the best overall softball player I have ever played with or against...A 5 tool player that is also a incredible leader ! George Robinson... |
| April 11, 2011 twins25 20 posts | Maybe Rick Perez is not already in the HOF because he is not yet 60 and has not played the required 10 years of Senior Ball? As far as best overall player he is certainly in the conversation with the likes of Ron Parnell as well as only a very select few. |
| April 12, 2011 canIjack Men's 60 322 posts | Okay, let hear about some of the other guys on the list. Anymore names that you can give us BruceinGa. And by the way congrates to You and All the Guy and Gals that are on the list. |
| April 12, 2011 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | It looks as if 2012 may be my year for the Senior Softball HOF. I wasn't told names for 2011, just that there are 32 that submitted their credentials. |
| April 13, 2011 sliplayer Men's 60 70 posts | Roland Belitz from MTC has applied and deserves the right to be in the HOF. 32 names are a lot of names anybody have any idea how many will be inducted? |
| April 13, 2011 sliplayer Men's 60 70 posts | I should have stated the honor of being in the HOF not the right. SLi |
| April 13, 2011 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Steve, If I recall correctly - and that's a stretch - 8 from the list of nominees were inducted into the SSHOF. |
| April 13, 2011 canIjack Men's 60 322 posts | Roland Belitz, ex Seacrest Maverick, ex GSF, and now a MTC player. I'm rooting for yea Roland, even after you moved up North. |
| April 14, 2011 goforit 97 posts | Rick Perez and Roland Belitz are great softball players, but they like Steve Imlay (inducted last year) are also top notch people. I'm looking forward to hearing they both were accepted into the HOF. John Giesler Master Collision |
| April 14, 2011 LChell 2 posts | Have played next to Roland in the outfield on GSF and MTC-60s - great outfielder and hitter. He deserves to be inducted! Lefty Chell |
