| April 14, 2018 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tournament Results Gotcha missouridave, you are correct. I was just looking at the results rather than copy of bracket with scores. |
| April 14, 2018 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tournament Results stick, they have been posted for some time. Go to tournaments, scroll down to bottom, 2017 Archives, then whatever age group you wish to open. |
| April 9, 2018 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Scrap Iron loss of a great player and person I 2nd our brother Fabe from the islands. Surf, I'm another who fought through that demon(Cancer Free for 9 years), and am currently in the Scrap Iron family. Hang in there bud and continue to battle. It's like a test, work hard and beat it. Prayers to Skips family and to also to you Surf. |
| March 9, 2018 curveball | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: MITTS txassnighttrain, point well taken. (I book rooms in both early in the year! LOL) Thought logic would prevail; hard to figure why a stop or an outfielder would consider a mitt over a glove! I'd have to go back to earlier posts, but thought the talk before the rules committee vote was for allowing the pitcher to wear a mitt, just didn't recall it including ALL defensive players. |
| March 7, 2018 curveball | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Field Assignments Changed for 70's and others nofear You are correct but you only read part of the post, it said TENTATIVE. Please note that TENTATIVE means they are NOT FINAL and are SUBJECT TO CHANGE If read entirely, you should have no gripe. I'm sure you'll end up with better game situations in St. George than you would have gotten in Mesquite (scheduled at night or on the baseball fields). You know all the fields are nicer for sure. |
| Feb. 26, 2018 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Ratings Ratings system alive and well, we were moved to 75 M+ today, a correct discretionary decision. Thumbs up to those that rated. System worked in our case. |
| Feb. 24, 2018 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: St. George Lack Of Hotel Discounts - Spring Worlds. Tomar, that's the same problem we have when we venture into California. Prices of everything involved with travel to that state are off the chart. Motels sky high, fuel prices perhaps highest in the nation. Where the tournaments are located in CA, we don't have an option for inexpensive rooms like the Mesquite option is for you. I'd gladly take a beautiful 30 min.drive like the Mesquite/St. George drive for rooms in CA at Mesquite prices! |
| Feb. 22, 2018 curveball | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: MITTS Interesting K Man, thanks for the update. |
| Feb. 22, 2018 curveball | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: MITTS nighttrain I was under the ASSumption the mitt rule was added for the pitcher. Mt thinking the 1st baseman, catcher, and the pitcher can now wear mitts. |
| Feb. 12, 2018 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: TOC UPDATES for Loyce Harps Complex Any 75 results? |
| Feb. 8, 2018 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Vegas tournament 2/17-2/19 Yes, three day tournament. Monday is a legal holiday, tournament games will be scheduled on that Monday. |
| Jan. 25, 2018 curveball | Topic: Bats Discussion: What Became of 30+ Ounce Bats? Nancy, Ray did get to play a little in the Senior circuit. I played on a Monday night senior league with him, and he did play a few tourneys with s team out of the NW. He was quite a character, and developed into a very good hitter. |
| Jan. 22, 2018 curveball | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Winter Classic in Bullhead I agree with bruiser, very good experience. Didn't have the problems Diesel had. Will be back for sure next year. Las Vegas Stars(65) beat Cut Loose 65's(CA) in the 65/70 Gold division. Stark Street Dough Boys won the 70 Silver Division. |
| Jan. 1, 2018 curveball | Topic: Teams looking for players Discussion: Over the Edge AAA Team Prayers to my pal Rick and his bride Carolyn. You will both be in my heart and prayers till you beat this demon. Look forward to seeing you on the softball trail after recovery. |
| Dec. 19, 2017 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Defense I'll take my chances every game with a defense that gives only 3 outs per inning. |
| Dec. 14, 2017 curveball | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Results gray, I think SSUSA has addressed this during the World Huntsman games. The glitch comes with the number of teams in each division. The current program like the Huntsman Games uses so far is unable to work for the larger number of teams. ISSA has the "luxury" of having a tournament total of 173 teams (which is smaller than several different age groups in the Vegas Tourney) which will work with the current programming. The ISSA tourney in Palm Springs had 10 teams, you can report those scores from memory! Huntsman had over 350, but format was broken down into a lot smaller individual groups that were able to be programmed, thus able to report. As was told to us earlier, they are trying to figure it out. After reading this website for many years, same 3 bitches keep coming up: balls, ball/strike count, and results. Looks as though Sacramento took care of the balls, is working on the ball/strike count with current survey, and I'm sure they will figure out the results in the near future. |
| Dec. 14, 2017 curveball | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 5 games There is no great reason for 4 seeding games, 5 game format is ample for the $$$. Duke, not sure the older age divisions (at least 65 and 70) had any say so in the "so many games in a day." Maybe that came from the oldest divisions, like the 75's and up. Never heard any growls from the 70's and younger on the 3 days tourneys, but did hear quite a few growls on the 4 day schedule. Too long, too expensive. From the SSUSA side, if it makes it easier to schedule with fewer games per day, understand. |
| Dec. 12, 2017 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Steve McKinlay Benji I'm with you. r4, looks to me like a complete turn around in economy and unemployment, even before the implementing of a new tax plan. I would say the republicans are doing quite well in comparison to the liberal (socialist) bunch that we got stuck with for 8 years. |
| Dec. 11, 2017 curveball | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 2017 TOC team roster How many qualifiers did each of the 6 play in? |
| Dec. 6, 2017 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: SSUSA Convention Minutes Thank you. 214 teams at SW Worlds in Vegas and 613 teams at the World Masters same location, The Rock in play for both. Like The Rock or not, those 2 tournaments aren't broken, there is no need to fix! |
