Don't forget 14u. Lmao that was a humdinger get a bye, play a game call yourself champeen

Can you say "dickhead?" That is probably your real name.

Nope - just a guy that actually looked at the results after some broad brush strokes were painted by some earlier poster in regard to how the aces swept all three classes. May change my name to "cutthroughthebshead"

So the complaint with the touornament is who the winners are? I dont see anyone posting about anything other than that. All the teams in Texas were invited to come play and win it. No one was excluded that I ever heard. Maybe if IG wouldve played and won it, it wouldve been a just fine tournament.

No one has an issue with the tournament! No one has an issue with who won the three age groups! The issue is; You have idiots come on heybucket saying how great the tournament was; How great the Aces Express are in all age groups! Sounds to me like the Aces Express are trophy hunters! Finally you bash IG for not coming....Let me tell you something....Aces Express 16U would get their asses stomped by IG 16U! IG 16U's was in a real tournament this past weekend; the AZ Froshow! IG plays the best tournaments in the country! That's a fact! Can't wait to see IG 16U blast AE 16U! Be careful what you wish for!

WOW

IG went 2-3-1 in AZ so I would maybe tone down the chest thumping

It's not about winning or losing in the fall for IG! You play the best competition! It's about getting kids scholarships and nobody does it better! That's what seperates IG from the trophy hunters!

Obviously Impact Gold not about winning and losing in the fall. It is also not really about getting people signed. Most gold programs including AE get their people signed. The difference between Impact Gold and teams like AE is what happens at the end of the year in tournaments that count.

Impact finished 2nd at ASA in 2012, 3rd at ASA in 2011, 4th at ASA in 2010 and 2nd at PGF in 2010. In contrast, AE was tied for 25th at ASA Gold (with several other teams) in 2012. Not a great showing not a bad showing. Clearly not anything to be worthy of mouthing off about on Heybucket. AE says they are the "second best" gold team in Houston. Well there were 3 teams from Houston that finished in the top 10 at ASA Gold in 2012. Therefore, AE is actually the 4th best team. Until AE does something (top 10 finish) in a tournament that matters (ASA or PGF) it is all just a bunch of hot air. The only people who care about AE are AE's parents and their surrogates who whine on Heybucket. No one else cares.

Instead of having their parents whining on Heybucket AE should focus on winning at ASA or PGF. Then maybe teams will come to your tournament next year to play you. After all you will be on the main fields.

Shins might be on to something.

Spaz:

It was a showcase.....I was unaware that W's & L's matter.

That said, showcase or not, it doesn't change the fact IG played some really good teams out there.

That said, where's my koolaid?

I'd bet you also think that playing on the IG 16U team gives your DD a shot at playing on one of the IG 18U teams.

Here are a few 14u facts

Aces did not win a pool game against the 14u opponents

Aces lost two 16u games and ducked out of a late game to go home early

Bombers lost two 16u games

Kaos was 1-2 in 16u Kaos took the 9pm game aces chose not to play

Kaos came back for a 9am against the bombers and won the game. After one game they received a three hour break with four fields open to play the ship. Aces won.

Goodness bert, get your facts straight. According to my sources, aces beat bombers friday night. And none of the 14U teams, including your 14u Kaos team, wona single game in the 16u bracket (anyone can read the brackets that hang on the wall for all to see). So both 14u teams that played in the event lost to the aces.
