Shot of DD3 sliding back to third on a pick off attempt (unsuccessful, believe it or not) that was actually shot by a professional photographer at 10U Nationals in Basehor, KS several years ago.

This is really tesing my memory to get the years and ages right on these old pics! I hope I can get this good at shooting pics one of these days!

That is great! And the 3rd baseman is spot on, too. Look at the bare hand.

Yeah! Looking back, it is amazing how good these young children were at that age. We sure didn't play that level of softball when I was a kid!

I found one of DD2 pitching when she was 10. Again, at the same tournament, same photographer took the pic. Both feet "might" not be on the ground, though.

Future OU Sooner at 9 (?) years old.

Why waste all that talent as a Schooner...

Oh, good question! We thought about trying to get her on as a football player at Texas Tech...............

TT? Who gives a rat's a$$ about TT? I thought we were talkin' softball?

I know it's probably tough to see all those College WS teams in your own back yard...and never good enough to get an invite!

In reading through your past posts, my first inclination was to believe you were not actually from this planet, but since I see Texans apologizing for you and your words, I guess you are. So, my only guess at this point is that you have no formal education.

Let me refresh your memory or point out to you the most common definition of "never" from Merriam-Webster online:

1. Not ever: at no time: i.e., I never met her.
2. Not in any degree: not under any condition: i.e., never the wiser for his experience. (Looks like Merriam-Webster read your posts too!)

Kind of hard to win it if you're not in it.

See ya, Joe. I've no more time to waste with you.

Hey now neighbor...no need to get your panties in a wad!

I'm just reminding you that no matter hard you try, we must not forget we're talkin' Oklahoma here... you know the land of Bozo Barry (Switzer), Indian casinos and a severe shortage of dentists....

I'll be watching OU with great interest this year. Their acquisitions have been ranked #1 by ESPN in large measure because of Ricketts & Gascoigne (both of whom I've called for) and some others. Both of those pitchers are stud lefties. You have a lot to proud of and I have no doubt they will be in the show this year. Ricketts can strike fear into the heart of players and even some umpires. She definitely can bring it.
