Dallas Tigers 10U on TV

I caught the game, great plays defensivly for both teams. Dallas Tigers head coach was interviewed for about 1 1/2 innings in the matchup to see who they were going to play, he gave great mention to the select programs from the Texas area and the tremendous dedication from not only the coaches but the parents to the select programs. Hat's off to Linty Ingram and the Dallas Tigers 10U team.

Did anyone see the DBAT Mustangs on webcast during the connie mack world series, and get runner-up? They interviewed Sam Carpenter every night for 8 days. Come on guys

Give it a rest, newguy. A local team of 10 year olds were on TV nationwide at least twice (that I saw). Give them a moment in the sun. One thread with 3 posts is about 1/100th of the play the Connie Mack boys got. Come on guys, yourself.

Awesome that these guys got their moment in the sun. Congratulations to the 10U Tigers, their coaches, and families!

When did this turn into the elementary school baseball web?

Lol...I guess someone hit a nerve. I am guessing New Scout plays for DBAT, surely no one believes he is a scout.

Anyways just giving some props to the youngsters. I would have done the same for the DBAT 10 year olds had I seen them.

I just do not understand why parents and kids of these two GREAT organizations cannot get along and be happy for one another. Am I missing something somewhere?

txbball14 - Going back in time from following him from previous years, I do believe Newscout is a scout from the Houston area. Maybe not the most diplomatic of posters since he doesn't have a dog in the fight but a scout none-the-less.

P.S. I did not interpret his comment as a dig at the Tigers, rather to the concept of televising 10U baseball...but who knows, I could be wrong.

You may be right, I may have just taken the comment the wrong way.

My apologies for over-reacting.

I thought it was a dig at a 10 year old team, but reading back it was more a shot at the post in general.

txbball14 - no apologies needed...I had the same reaction to him that you did in 2007 when he first posted but after following him for a few years I do not believe he has a bias in the DFW area.

Cheapseat,

R U an FBI agent???

I was not taking anything away from the 10U players. I think it is great. But I do think Out in LF has an agenda.

I have no dog in the fight. Haven't for 11 years...

TXbball14: U R wrong I dont play for anyone. The only place you will see me is maybe one sunday at Craig Ranch this month. This will be the only reason I will be in dallas.

Okay, okay, so maybe "following him from previous years" was a poor choice of words on my part.....
wouldn't be the first time.

Boy, I didn't think my comments would stir up such a fire....LOL. Sorry Newscout, no agend but its great that you are trying to read to much between the lines. Just take the comment for what its worth.

Did anyone happen to catch yesterday's Sesame Street episode?

They interviewed Big Bird and Snufflelufagus.

Hopefully they let us know when try outs are. They seem like two stand up individuals and I'd love for my son to have a chance to play for them.
