So this is getting interesting. Word in the officiating circle is that the tattle team team ALSO had an illegal sub in the game but it wasnt caught until yesterday, so an official review is in process and will likely take that W away.


There is no such thing as an “officiating circle” - you made that up.

100% not true. The team that discovered the cheating - and I assume we can all agree that cheating is wrong and should be reported - got the win and played again the following night. In that game, neither team cheated - which I assume we can all agree is a good thing.

So they declared the team ineligible and gave the win to the team that lady's kid plays on.

How she knew this I have no clue. But don't be that mom. These kids just want to play baseball.


Karen, sour grapes that your kid is the one called out for getting caught.


A 'Karen' would be the one crying about a roster substitution, not the person getting caught. If youre going to try and use contemporary slang, use it correctly. Or you look like a .... fool. Which we all now see you as.

I don’t think she looks like a fool. You seem mean. Maybe just relax and be nice.


Be nice to people that are too stupid to even insult people correctly? Nah, I'm good.

Travel Ball Coach here. Agree.

This is a troll post.


Dad, here. No one cares that you're a 'travel ball' coach and no one cares that you sat on the bench at Gettysburg for two seasons in the late 90's. HTH.


Started every game in collegiate career and 3X All-Confrence Selection, actually.


You have a 5 inch weewee you say?

Like… for 12 year olds? That’s completely crazy.


It was for 10yos. Anyone who pays that much attention to kids is seriously creepy.

Well folks, as I have noticed with my son playing travel ball for last couple of years.
You'll meet some of the best, nicest people and also some of the worst, craziest people while involved.
Politics and travel team coaches moving players to fully rostered teams to win is fact.
So is having so called adults acting like petulant children as this thread convincing documents.

She then told the coach of her son’s team, who spoke to a tournament official, who then questioned the opposing coach. The opposing coaching at first claimed the player entering the game was indeed the player listed on the roster and wearing the right jersey. However, there were multiple parents who knew both kids and the coach eventually “confessed” that the player who entered the game was not on the roster. The game was then stopped and the cheating team forfeited. Side note - the cheating team was losing 6-2 when the game was called.


So you are changing the facts of the story now. Definitely a troll.


+1 I think this isn't OP. I think this is the guy who fancies himself to be some important official because he had some fat DD play softball when he obviously doesn't even know the game. Five posts earlier he was claiming no such forfeiture wasnt even possible! So he made up a story to make himself seem right.

Sad.


What is wrong with you?


Honestly? A lot.

But, if PP's want to sling some sh*t, I'm not holding back.


A different poster clarified what happened which seems entirely plausible. You responded by saying she probably had a fat daughter. Like… what?
