Sometimes these pictures crack me up. How long did it take to find that. And its a a midget Bahahahahahahahahaaa

Punishers - keep loosing to teams they should beat, is it coaching???
Victory - Falling back to the pack a little?
OCBB - Had a nice cake walk and good punch...to the stache!!!

Why doesn't someone get these ten teams, plus the two firecracker teams, and have a brackey style friendly every sunday until Nationals. Wouldn't this help prepare us all for Nationals?

Come on Wendy - we all need to give OCBB 98 credit. Every team they played qualified for ASA Nationals..... looking back that really was probably one of the top runs at 12U ASA State!

1st round: Over American Athletics 98
2nd round: Over So Cal Athletics 98
3rd round: Over Cal Cruisers
4th round: Over So Cal Choppers 98
5th round: Over Victory USA

Looking back the real cake walk schedule was Victory ............. For once the FC98 crowd can point the finger at Victory...........

WOW a three team rivalry going to Nationals ............ now the fun begins!

Bracky - you were a lot more fun and fair before you became a "cracker"

Brackey's poll has predicted the last few National Champs.

FC 98 vs Victory is like the Lakers vs Celtics

OCBB 98 vs Victory is like the Lakers vs Kings from the Chris Webber days, break out the cow bells, yeah they may have won a Pacific Division title but can they win an NBA title?

Just checked out the Victory site and with all the victories over the years and great players he's coached Campbell can never say he won a 12U State Title. What a failure!

Oooooooh Weeeeee!!! Is that WendyPeffercorn representing the Punishers on that poll!? As I said all along, they're a 9 or 10 at BEST!!! This photo depicts them being WAY TOO LOW on the poll

[TheCloser]

Here's my top 5 for what it's worth from after State:

1. FC 98 - The thing you have to respect about Sean is he consistently trying to make this team better and is always recruiting for the next diamond in the rough. Yes, they lost by 1 run in both the Thanksgiving Day and Mother's Day Tournaments but I can guarantee that if those were double elimination tournaments they would've won them both. It's softball and sometimes things happen but good teams are tough to beat twice.

2. Victory 98 -Up to this point in their softball careers, this group has lived up or exceeded the accomplishments of the Campbell girls that came before them based on the record. In a few years, I'm sure some of these girls will end up on some big time college programs.

3. OCBB 98 - This group of girls is a combination of different girls that have been solid players since the 10U days and competed on a consistent basis with the then So Cal Crunch and Victory so it's no surprise their a good team now.

4. Team Rawlings - Solid team that basically has come out of nowhere this year to be considered one of the best teams from California and really the Nation.

5. Punishers - Lots of talent that can win them some big games. What team is going to show up? Like I said, it's tough to be the top dog because everyone wants to play and beat the best and it's no big deal if you lose because that was the expectation anyway.

I THINK WHAT THE CLOSER IS TRYING TO SAY BY ONLY LISTING HIS TOP 5 IS 6-10 DON'T MATTER AFTER STATES.

Nah, I do have a job that needs to be done from time to time.

Softbal1234, your CA situation/ranking depends on if you pickup that pitcher that we all hear about. What's the word?
