End of an awesome ride as a softball dad
Last year was both DD's last season. D3 and Varsity. DD1 just left the house to drive up to Dallas to attend the last games for the Seniors. She asked me to go too. Nah! You on your own. I still watch the team online, with much less stress. Much more time to work on my golf game!!!- Orange Socks

Drop Dead question
After the first pitch, runner should have gotten in a pickle between home and 3rd. Put pressure on the defense to execute. If she gets out then it's still a tie. If she scores, then you Win. But yeah, drop dead should be used for games that don't count. Showcases or pool games.- Orange Socks

Just met my neighbor...
That was my excuse to not spend any money right now. As I think about it...Softball is still costing me money. That stupid ESPN+ app! And we've taken a couple road trips up to DD's former school to watch softball. One day it will all seem like a dream. While I'm at it. I had a huge expense...- Orange Socks

Just met my neighbor...
And found out she used to play softball for OU back in the early 2000's! She plays golf and now I am going to connect my DD with her so she can play in a weekday ladies league. It all started when I found a note in my mailbox asking to discuss plans for our shared dilapidated fence, which is...- Orange Socks

Just a rant
I believe all kids should cycle through all sports when they are younger. Soccer, basketball, softball, swimming, dance, gymnastics, etc. Saw lots of good athletic kids that were better, stronger, faster than my DD. Once DD started playing Summer All stars(10u-14U) she started passing those...- Orange Socks

Extra Inning Team Rankings
IMO, the best rankings that we have access to is US Club Rankings. Points are based on finishes in qualifying tourneys. Is it perfect? No game changer stats or coach submissions.- Orange Socks
