I got 22 pool games of 27 right. Missed the 2 tie games, SS Blue, and EC Tigers upsets. Anyone do better out there? I had only 2 of final 4.

I NEVER saw the Cindarella story (Duluth) coming, and I've seen them play many times. They've never performed up to that level before. No doubt the most improved team. Kudos to their Coaches, players, and parents supporting the effort. They are scrappy gamers.

Now onto the S-NIT.

FINAL PREDICTION BANDITS VS 643-BANDITS cHAMPS
GOT THAT RIGHT BUT NOTHING ELSE MUCH EXCEPT KENNESAW VS BANDITS
i was under the impression memphis outlaws were going to be the memphis tigers from previous year.

57-1 in six games??!??!? How long, if they aren't already, until they start playing 11U tournaments?

Kennesaw and boynton have deep pitching lets see what happens today and tomorrow. Umpiring has been suspect so far.



SP lost to Duluth giving up 2 hits in 6 innings, and Duluth was error-less. That's 10YO baseball for you. It's hard to keep these boys up for every game, especially back-to-back. That's what makes what the Bandits do so impressive.

Yup, I don't mind judgement calls being missed, but when routine plays are missed, then there's a problem.

I see the Bandits and Longhorns in the semi in the lower bracket and 643 and Sharon Springs Silver in the upper bracket semi with a 643 vs longhorns final. But I could be biased ;-)

BBALL123 That's what I like to see, putting it all out there. Gonna be fun to see how our guesses pan out. I'm curious to see if any AA teams can beat any AAA teams, and if any AAA teams can take down any of you big boys. Could happen in the pool games, but I dont see it happening in brackets.

We learned from last year and this year we will be throwing some better pitchers in pool games (minimum innings)just to make sure we get a decent seed in the bracket. It's kind of like a timeout in football or basketball you can't take innings home with you.

Don't confuse that statement with throwng a player to much please.
Rocky Posted - 03/05/2009 : 17:39:49
You make a good point about pitching and predictions. I wonder if any coaches might see an easier bracket play by not winning their pool. I would doubt it though, most teams want to win every game they can and the winner of this tournament might not lose a game. You never know though.
Hawkeye Posted - 03/05/2009 : 17:00:54
As everyone knows, I am the prognosticator of the year with my research and algorithms and I am sure you all have been anxiously awaiting my predictions. Please don't shower me with praises as I only accept them from worthy aspirants, but do take note as I am 100% correct, 100% of the time. Place your bets now.

A - Scorpions
B - Wills Park
C - Bandits or Outlaws (they don't play each other)
both should want 1st bad, because huge advantage of 2nd
D - S. Springs Blue
E - 643 or Midway (also don't play each other)
again, both should want 1st badly
F - Kennesaw
G - Tigers

Other notes:
- Winner will be Kennesaw or Bandits (me thinks Kennesaw, but they have to win 7 where everyone else besides Pool G has to win 6)

- Don't be surprised to see S. Springs go very deep. They have a great draw

- Wills Park will pull an upset or two against ECB teams

- S.P. will not beat Tigers (and may not want to) despite what bmoser believes


Hawkeye has spoken!!
baseball99 Posted - 03/05/2009 : 16:29:51
I'll take a stab at this so that Bmoser and Rocky are not feeling all alone, and with some play on names just for fun:

A - Scorpions, DC, Picnic Pests
B - Jackets, Cows w/horns, Birds, Coal Mt
C - Thieves, Black Hat Cowboys, Dawgs, Scrappy Cats
D - Oakland, Devils, Sharon, Dinos
E - Pitcher's BF, Midway, Nissan Trucks, Noise Makers
F - Locomotives, Storm, Wilson, Birds
G - Yesterday's Astros, Sharon, Amazin's, Scrappy Cats


I hope nobody takes this too seriously or is offended by this. Some of those are stricly S.W.A.G.'s as I am not familiar with some of these teams. I don't know how Bmoser makes it to all of these games - cloning ???????
bmoser Posted - 03/05/2009 : 15:49:51
Rocky, at least we had the guts to put it all out there. I feel like
a turkey the day before Thanksgiving. All our fellow posters will be chasing us around with axes just waiting for our picks to be wrong.

WARNING: if you dont post your educated guesses by tomorrow at 6PM, you lose the right to chop our heads off Monday morning. My responses to your critisisms will simply be "gobble, gobble, gobble"

The Coaches who dont throw any of their top 4 pitchers in the pool games could make us both look like clucks!

I like the fact you don't pick all the favorites. I usually take Princeton in my Final Four Bracket and pick alot of underdogs myself. Sounds like Sharon Springs Blue may be the sleeper I have been looking for. I thought they had a pretty good team if they were the South Forsyth Team. Raptors beat Midway then that puts them up there too, those two teams should be pretty evenly matched. Only thing I know for certain is I am never right on my predictions so since I am picking mostly favorites we will probably have some upsets. I wish today was Friday.
Come back and blast me on Monday, I deserve it. Good luck to all the teams and I hope some of them shut me up.

I like how the SP Wildcats did in their last tourney, and I'm thinking the Astros/Tigers might not be tourney sharp yet. I don't always pick the favorite.

I don't see what you see in the Outlaws. All I know about them is what I can find in the virtual World. I go to lots of games, but must admit, none of them were in Memphis.

Sharon Springs Blue was South Forsyth last year. Does that help? They were a top 10 rated 9U team by years end, and they've improved their team.

Raptors- these are not the Georgia Raptors, there are 2 Raptor teams in this age group. These Raptors won the G-Force tourney 2 weekends ago by beating Midway and Parkview back to back.

A's were the Ocee Stars last year. They were re-classified as Majors by USSSA. Lowest power rating in 10U Majors.

Norcross had the 2nd highest scoring team in GGBL as 9's, but lacked pitching depth and their defense was weak. They recruited some help from Duluth.

"Must be the wrong hat"

Pool G-How do you think SP wildcats finish ahead of the last years ECB Astros?

"D" I dont have anything on any of those teams I did pull that one out of my... well hat.

Looking ahead to bracket play if 6-4-3 wins their pool they have to face the Outlaws early if Bandits win their pool. Scorpians get a heck of a bracket if they win their pool, the wont face a top team until game 15 vs longhorns or millcreek or wills park, Bandits and Kennesaw will face off in game 22 and this could very well be a finals match, hate to see them play each other this early, ECB Tigers will probably meet the winner of that game in game 25, unless Pool B, wills or mill creek upsets them. So looking at it in speculation, we get to see bandits vs kennesaw, and the winner play ECB Tigers,
643 or Outlaws take the top bracket. If I am the longhorns I want to finish 3rd in my pool. Looking at it that way I see Bandits, Kennesaw or ECB Tigers in the finals with winner of 6-4-3 vs Memphis Outlaws.

bball fan, If you know someone on the bandits that is throwing 65 mph could you please share it with us so we might pitch him some. I don't think that you should take so serious everything you read in these posts. I can promise you that the bandits do not have anyone throwing close to 65. We plan on coming, having a lot of fun and good luck to you and your team. And before we move up to the 12's I would like to see how we stack up against the many 10U teams that we have all the respect in the world for. You can mark this statement down. There are at least 10 and maybe 15 teams capable of winning this tournament if they play up to their potential and we will not overlook or underestimate any one of them. We play in one of the toughest age groups to be found in this state.
