| well here is my 2 cents or 10k opinion, take it for what its worth it wont change my sponsorship for 08. first off every time i go out and watch you lads play i need a scorecard with mugshots to know who is who. i noticed that your team is getting better and be that as it may, if your end goal is to win usssa worlds, then you need to play at the d level as sb did this past season, however play up in every tourney only play tournies that mean something, which means you decide that CVD, WINNEMUCCA,and all the drunkfests get past on for usssa and nsa d and c nit's. this season bullys will be playing alot of upper b and even concord major in the hopes to be ready at the worlds. you have a lot of heart and you all play well as a team,and you live and breathe softball 1-14, however to win at usssa and you can tell me to fuck off anytime, 1-10 need to hit 625- 700. you can have only 1 easy out in the lineup and he better pitch like tim g, or field like shane, and as we learned in nsa you cant give teams 4-5 outs an inning. talking to hawk at the game he does what i do a lot, sit myself to run the team, you would be better off finding someone who can run the team, travel and not care about playing, because the last time i played with jd he should have been the leadoff hitter and he hit 683.2 for the season, might be worth a free ride if he knows the game. chad impressed me with his non dbo hitting, ozzie is pretty good, the kid with the dirty hat is a player, the green brother is a stud and jd is the sexiest softball 24/25 on the planet, follet needs a haircut and kid stop acting so nonchalant and throw the fucking ball to 1st base on an OUT, LEST I START CALLING YOU RAY RAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good luck in vegas and see you all soon

| Paul, I appreciate the fact that you give a fuck enough to post what you feel about our team. I hope everybody reads this and takes something from it. We have a lot of options to explore in the coming months, and your input will go a long way to figure out just who and what we want to be.

| Definitely agree with Paul,constructive criticism will always be a plus from someone outside lookiing in.
As for the scheduling, I think I have made my opinion pretty clear to the 3 Kings that run this ship, NIT's, and qualifiers are what we should shoot for next year, it will only prepare us better for whatever nationals/worlds we shoot for. I know those meaningless tournaments are fun and still can be played by a put together team, but the big tournaments are what we should be striving for.
This is only my opinion so take it for what its worth, I enjoy playing with all you guys, win or lose I know we always have a great time.
I know I dont have much time left playing at this level much longer now that Im pushing that 40 mark, and my little ones are getting older and soon be doing their own sports (hopefully), I just want us as a team to do what is takes to make a hard charge at any nationals or world title, what ever level we decide to play at.
P.S. Im not saying to give up Winnemucca either, I know we all enjoy that tourney!!!

| We have to be patient about getting the '08 schedule done, because NSA & ASA release their schedules late. USSSA will be easy. Count on Phoenix, Everett, & Tacoma, as well as possible LV, Utah, Oregon and a grip of NorCal (Unfortunately). We will be at the Summer Slam in Red Bluff instead of CVD's, but Winnemucca is the reason God put me on this Earth. Hopefully with the new complex we will have some tournaments of importance around here once again.

| I may have gone too far with the Mucc analogy! Luckily, we have already got rid of our bad, so onward and upward the rest of '07 and '08!

| Looking back at this year, and the progress we have made from the begining to the upcoming end, Is pretty phenominal. In the begining of the year we couldn't win to save our own ass's. we made a few changes, and we are finishing the year on a great note. With some guys leaving and replacing them with qaulity guys, is very exciting for next year. I totally agree with Paul, and thanks for everything you have done for our team, with out you, it would make it very hard to play our schedule. Todd, Hawk, Kid, Wiz, Chad and I have had numerous talks about chacing quality tourny's instead of the meaning less drunkin stupers,(which I didn't participate in). All in all I think we are headed in the right direction. So on that note, lets put an ass whoopin on flowing tide and go to Bully's for a few or alot of drinks!

| Since Boneyard Blast our team has been on a serious roll. The most important thing is that we come to play. We've been winning at an .800 clip since then and even the games we lose we battle til the end. Thats the main thing I care about. If we show up to play and focus we are unstoppable. I am definately in the play the tournaments that matter boat. Nit's, qualifiers etc, whatever it takes to get us prepared for the end of the year world tournies. Personally I think the only "fun" so to speak tourney we should play is Winnemucca. Other than that we should play as much utrip as possible. The Nit's are usually pretty spread out, so we can put a nice schedule together to keep us sharp. I honestly knew that eventually we would start playing up to our potential so now we need to build on this great second half. And Paul, when we play against smoke I cannot be held accountable for my actions. Iv'e been playing hurt and they bring out the punk in me. Sorry!

| One thing I forgot, I look at the whole season as a measure of how our team has done. I like to play the better teams in different states and measure us against them. I don't base everything on how we do at worlds. I just want to compete and compete favorably against the nations best, and then if we win these Nits or place in world or who knows, Win World, then great, but I expect our team to show up to compete. Thats it!!!
