| just to let you guys know that the weather down here is beautiful. i had a talk with kirby murphy today (who is down here for the B worlds) and he has informed me that Ryman creeps him out (i think ryman has a man crush on him) but anyways trust was knocked into the losers bracket tonight (which surprised me) and my team (the worm burners) are still in the winners bracket. obviously i wont be around this weekend for the playoffs and want to wish the best of luck to the teams that are playing... ROCKSTAR OUT!!!!!

| I head the Osceola complex fucked up and got way behind so they had to go to a 45 minute time limit while the other fields are playing regular games.

| yes ryno it was unbelievable...this is how we lost our first game.
we had the 740 game and they were a game behind at osceola.
disney was right on schedule with the last games being played at 1000.
they put a 45 minute time limit on all games at osceola and still couldn't catch up so they moved the 850 (game after us) and 1000 games to disney.
they DIDN'T take the time limit off for the 740 games. so it was a great back and forth game, we were the visitors.
we went up 12-11, top 5, and while hitting the 45 minutes hit. that means they won't start another inning. so they got to hit and scored two which ended it. meanwhile, there wasn't a game after us.
northeast auto - another ri team, we heard lost the exact same way, they also had a 740 at osceola

| We all played a great tourney. We left everything on the field, and playing 4 games in a row in 95 degree weather took its toll. 4-2 is great. Congrats to all the guys, thanks for inviting me to play

| just wanted to check in and say that i never in my life had more fun playing softball and had a better time with some awesome friends. that experience was one that will last a lifetime for me and will never forget as long as i live the memories and laughs we had on that trip. thanks for everyone showing up to play and what a tourny we had and we did it with heart and pride and played some fucking awesome softball and like ranney said we left it all on the field. from that sick ass water slide park to 18 holes at orange lake to playing at disney with the stadium as our back drop, it was fucking unbeleivable and i wouldnt want to be anywhere else with any other team. to my team mates, you guys rock, DAD OUT!

| I have been down that way to play a couple of times. It's always fun becuas there is plenty to do. You guys had a good run and did Coventry proud. I have been on another site reading about this pink Messengers team that were apparently a bunch of dicks and the pitcher got bitch slapped in the middle of the field. You guys have any run ins with them?

| no but we were playing on the field next to them when the run-in happened.
apparently the pitcher was a dick on thursday and friday against everyone. several of those teams were waiting when pink had to play a game. so there were about 4 teams watching them play and every pitch was oooooooooooo or boooooooo against pink.
then something went down while we were up 3 in the bottom of the 7th. made it real hard to focus. it happened near pinks dugout around first base. don't know what it was but it took about 2 minutes before every team that was watching was sprinting over to get into it.
don't know what happened b/c we were trying to win, which we did by 1, and there were so many people we couldn't see. but we heard they let both teams stay in it which is ridiculous.

| Apparently he fielded a ball up the middle and rolled it to first and that set it off.
Northeastsoftball.net. It's mostly NY and CT guys and a bunch of them were on there and were talking about it.
