Dallas Tourney
Again SSUSA has outdone itself with the one size fits ALL awards windbreakers for your wives,if they are of small stature.Sugestion,keep what little you spend for those things and give the winners entry fees back as a prize.

mmm guess they weren't to your liking,as we got any size we asked for in ours.maybe you should of asked for the size you wanted,or maybe talked to the director before coming on here and whining.....

We were the last division to finish and there were still 3 sizes of windbreakers to choose from, keep the windbreaker for yourself and buy your wife something nice!!!
She probably deserves it for putting up with you anyway

thanks for the info guys,We had at least 6 guys who wear a xxl and a large just doesnt measure up.But i guess the person handing out our awards were not telling us the truth about what sizes they had to offer.

tg69,
What I was getting at is , if you start calling people liars, good chance you get what you get !! I have played in more of Keith Parker's tournament than I can count and we "always" got the sizes we ask for..........ALWAYS !

I dont think anywhere in my post was the word liar.You read in it what you want just as I read in your post that you are calling me a liar.Im just telling you up front we asked for XXLs and was told there was none,now youll say there was 3 sizes,maybe they were sm.,,med.,and large.I personally enjoyed Dallas and the tournament but if you arent getting something that you can wear and display out in public and be proud of what good is it just hanging in the closet?Maybe 95% got what fit them but we didnt and I think our sponsor paid the same high entry fee as those other 95%.Now do you want to trade?

#6 are you affiliated with that tourney?If not,why would you think I would want a Tanel tshirt from you?I dont know you whatsoever.Wear that shirt around and tell people some dude from Texas sent me this shirt.Thanks for the offer,but no thanks. Let me suggest what I think should have happened.The director should have told us that they might have been out of those sizes and seen how many we needed and could have sent them at a later date to our coach in one box.Problem solved. PS,Maybe I should have said the whole truth or the rest of the story.Holla,TG69

tg69,

No,
I had nothing to do with that tournament except play in it like you. The only reason I offered a Tanel shirt is I am a part time Tanel rep and was only offering it.
Once again, did you talk to Keith Parker yourself ?

there were two gentleman handing out awards.Had official looking shirts on.Dont know if one of them was Keith but was told thats all they had.So if the last game winners got XXLs you do the math.Thanks for the offer but thats not your responsibility.

I will be glad to send you the XXL tanel black windbreaker for the large you were given, all I need is your name and address and team name so I can verify that you actually won your division. I'm sorry that a momento of your accomplishments is enough for you, but I know that it wont change what we as a team did on the field. If I can help you feel more accomplished by sending you my windbreaker I would be glad to.
Yours truely

Here we have a normal situation. A player is given an item too small. Instead of taking his complaint to Texas Half Century, Keith Parker, he starts this thread. We all jump in because we have no lives of our own. #6 reminds us for the umpteenth time that he's a Tanel Rep. Others say the same ole things. To a post like this not one reply should have been written...not even mine.

#6, A long time ago in a jazz club in Philadelphia I heard a song by Mose Brown that YOU'RE welcome to take as YOUR theme song. Its title is, "My Mind's on Vacation but my Mouth's Working Overtime". That's my point, and that's the last word from me on this subject.

This is a joke right?
Grown men complaining that a pitcher is decieving you with a ball 12 inch delivered underhand at less than 30 mph.

Hell 8 year olds hit a 9 inch ball traveling 40+ mph and you don't see them complaining.

I don't blame you for this being your last word on the subject, since you didn't make any sense anyway............
