    New college rule for obstruction

    Hope everyone is well... Just learned (please note SARCASM) that with every obstruction call comes an official warning to the player that caused the obstruction even if there was no unsportsmanlike conduct during the play...DD's college coach told this last week during a game :rolleyes: Happy...

    Stanford Softball NCAA violations

    NCAA fines, reprimands Stanford for football, softball violations - SFGate From the article: "The NCAA also imposed a one-year “show-cause” penalty against former softball coach John Rittman, meaning that any NCAA school that hires him during that time must conduct compliance education for the...

    Final shameless D3 brag

    DD didn't get as much circle time as she wanted (did finish 4-2) but did get Second Team All-Conference as a DP. :cool:

    End of season stats

    Regular season for DD ended yesterday. So proud DW and I could burst. 4-2 record as a pitcher, .459 BA, 4 HRs (2 GS), 7 doubles, 28 RBIs...now it's on to the conference tournament...:cool:

    Oh yeah!!

    Being able to watch your DD get a complete game 9-3 victory from the circle is great...but seeing her hit her first collegiate home run in the same game...AND IT WAS A GRAND SLAM...IS FREAKING AWESOME!!:cool:

    Thanks Boardmember

    It's an awesome thing to actually see the lights go on in an 8 YO who wants to pitch. My 8U team has 4 or 5 "never pitched before" girls who want to pitch. I remembered something that BM said on this site about teaching a newbie pitching (at least I think it was him...:p). Something to the...

    It Got Better

    10 years of pitching and hitting lessons - $$$$$ 7 years of travel ball all over the country - $$$$$$ Even with the scholarship, tuition-books-meals, etc. - $$$$$$ Watching DD pitch a CG 5-hit shutout after being down for a week with the interplanetary killer virus - PRICELESS!!:cool:

    LLWS on mute

    Had to mute the LWS because if I hear that guy Belisle from Rhode Island talk about the "purity" of Little League one more time, my head may explode.

    DD's farewell to Las Vegas

    DD has been making the showcases trek to Las Vegas for the past couple of years. This past weekend, she found a fitting way to say goodbye to this part of her journey. Two bombs on bracket Saturday...leading to two intentional walks on championship Sunday...so proud...can't wait to see her at...

    Thoroughly unimpressed

    I have no dog in the fight - as soon as ULL was done I became a casual fan - but the umpiring this year is the worst I can recall seeing since I started watching the WCWS. If these are the BEST NCAA umpires...WOW!

    This may be it...

    CIF playoffs start today. DD's team is #6 seed and will play #11 seed in play-in game to try and get to double-elimination rounds. DD has been ready for this season to be over since it started (numerous and previously discussed politics, attitude, senior-itis, coach favoritism, etc., issues)...

    How are college umpires rated?

    Watching the UCLA-Oregon State game, there was a play that the umpire at 2B missed - should have been an obvious out (R1 at 2B headed toward 3B on contact, line drive to F6, caught and thrown to F4 well ahead of the runner diving back). Although the commentators jumped on him and said he was...

    Sorry - HS dad brag post

    DD pitched probably the best game of her life last night. DD's HS team (acknowledging that MaxPreps stats are often padded) is ranked 2155 in the nation. Opponent last night was ranked 79 with three D1 commits (two Big West, one SEC) and a scout from Stanford in the stands. Complete game...
