12U Preseason Fan Rankings

So, you gonna put Stone in the poll?

[2face]

Never a dull moment on the Bucket. It is good to see a team defend their ASS__tant coach (LOWE). I guess the truth hurts. I mean most of the people that know Lowe and been on the team will tell you he coaches for DD to get her time on the mound. I will agree Stone does not play Daddy ball with his daughter but he has been blinded by the daddy in the dug out. From what I know those girls that left the team after the 2011 summer have done pretty well on their own. None of them have dads coaching their teams! Each of them have the talents to make some pretty good teams. I guess daddy has to do what he can to get playing time. To bad Stone cant see through the cloud of smoke that Dave Lowe is blowing in his face. What's worse is that a person who uses there position as coach to benefit there child is REPRESENTING KELLY JACKSON AND MIZUNO SOFTBALL!!!!'

Poll, stone?

[knee saver]

Really at the end of the day Stone or Garcia will have to move on from All American. We all know that at U14 you have to be with a better organization. The only organization that really makes any waves and help girls get into good schools around here is the Lady Magic. Heat ,Breeze and RR anyone else may get a few girls signed but thats Magics goal.Everyone else just wants to say they made it to nationals to get more players and teams. That's why you'll see organizations have 3\4 teams in one age group. Magic sticks to 1 team per age. By the way did anyone catch the Heat and Extreme game? From what I hear Extreme only won by one run. I could be wrong but that's what I was told. For a team so strong in the fall looks like without the two ladies they may struggle. As far as Stone being better in the spring or fall?Stone had never caught may radar until this fall. I always assumed the girls that didn't make Garcia went there. However after talking to a few parents I have learned different. So if the Extreme parents aren't happy onlooker thinks Stone needs a few studs to replace the few he had in the spring. I dont think Stone ever had any studs then or now. I do think this past fall you could see a team really working hard. Either way my hats off to the Heat so much improvement . Now let's see how all these teams play when they see RR and Garcia.

I Love when we get to hear unbiased opinions and facts from someone who clearly has an objective!!!!

Thanks for the help Looker...

"LOL, no, my daughter has NEVER played for a KJ/Mizuno team. Simple as that. I am trying to shed an unbiased opinion on Ray Stone's team as several of you are wearing fall glasses."

"Why was Stone a top 3 team BEFORE HIS TEAM SPLIT?????? cmon, get with the facts folks."

So if I get this right a team Split is when 2 girls age up because they were 98s, another One was a 00 with a pain in the ass for a dad (Not asked back) and your P you speak of tried out and made Team CA. If not mistaken there was like 100 kids who tried out for that team. I would have to say that means one or two from almost ever team in the area went after that chance.

"I really encourage you to check all your facts before throwing up stupid arguments."

"Tha stud CF Stone still hasnt replaced that I mentioned earlier? No.....I can name the whole team....know them all, all too well...I am definitely not one of them. You would not find me on a team with LOWE. Yer reachin to be honest. Again, an unbiased opinion of ray's team....they are pretty good, hes a good game manager, his asst is a putz. Next?"

Is this the same Stud who has been on 3 or 4 teams in the last 2 years??? Normally means DAD is a pain in the ass and is not asked back. When you can make a patch work quilt out of your DD's old jerseys by the time she hits 14s Its time to look in the mirror DAD.

If you can name the whole team and know them all, all too well and have such strong opinions of this asst coach you were on the team at some point. Nothing better then listening to ex parents with a pretty clear agenda...

But hey thanks for the unbiased opinion

Looks like Stone had more leave then you first posted. I don't know how many he had or who they even are. So yes far from butt hurt.

You stated in your earlier post the 2 98's leaving and the pitcher who went to Team Ca. I was simply looking at the other 2 I know. Based on that I would not call it a split!!!!

Did you say one of them moved?? As in moved out of the area??? How would that have anything to do with the coach. As for The Stud CF and The Hitter, Good players yes, butt hell the only reason I even know anything about this team or these 2 players is all the crap their dad's talked at every tournament around... Probably a reason they have a suitcase full of uni's and you see them at every 12u tryout in Nor Cal.

I am not sure how you would even say top 3 in Spring?? This team was not even on my radar until I started hearing about the 2 dads who had their kids working out with other teams while still playing for Stone. I sure hope these guys are not your source of info as you state you know all those who matter. Normally the people who run their mouth about team business are far from those who matter.

Doing the math based on what you have posted...

2 aged up, 1 Team CA, 2 not asked back do to parents, 1 moved out of the area. 6 players gone because of nothing that has anything to do with this guy. I include the one who went to Team Ca simply beacuse of the attraction that Joke turned out to be.

All I am saying is when you are as close to a team as you sound and have as much hatred towards someone as you clearly do with this asst. coach your opinion is far from unBiased.

C'mon Dude just my opinion don't go gettin all butt hurt yourself.

[luvhaters]

Actually I happen to know first hand that the two players you are talking about that were supposedly "not asked back" left on their own accord, just as Mizunogirl/softballgirly (who is obviously the head coach or asst himself) stated earlier. Get your facts straight peeps, unless you were actually there when certain players left, all this adds up to is heresay and a bunch of daddy's acting like little bitches in a cat fight...JMO
