Not the same team. I think the rest of your analysis is equally flawed.

I just wish the folks here at HeyBucket can moderate a debate like adults with no name-calling.
Each side should present their side of the issue and then have a rebuttal while still challenging the other side's points.
Should this have its own thread: PGF vs. ASA vs. TCS ???
Compare the stats over the years to see what the facts bear out?
Also, don't forget the "Travel Factor". Southern California teams do not really have to "Travel" like other teams do --- so does that make a difference where ASA and TCS are held?
Should we compare PGF to the Colorado Sparkler-type tournaments?
We can really make this an excellent debate topic so ALL HeyBucket perusers will benefit from the discussion.

If your tournament did not include SoCal A's, you were not in the one that counts.
If I was truly caring I would start with the order of finish from Independence Day tournament, http://www.bouldersoftball.org/2014_Documents/2014_Boulder_Bracket.xls That is most relevant close to finals tournament to be held. Top 16 from that tournament:
CA Corona Angels - Marty
MO Originals Gold
CA Batbusters
CA Sorcerers
AL Birmingham T-Bolts
CA Explosion
GA E. Cobb Bullets
MO St. Louis Chaos
IL Chill Gold
CA SoCal Choppers
CA Irvine Sting
KS Wich Mustangs
CA Grapettes
IL Beverly Bandits
CA Lady Magic
MI Finesse
Unfortunately for Battle. Those teams only really put their best teams on the field for Independence Day, PGF Finals and a few select friendlies they play leading up to those tournaments.

Maybe Kumbayabucket would more suit your gentle nature.
