Thank you very much for the kind words. They are very much appreciated and I do mean what I said about the class of your team. They were great!!

The kids have all decided that "LITTLE LEAGUE" isn't worth it if this is the way they want to run it. Cal Ripken OR travel ball sounds good to me!! I know mine has said that he will NOT play again next year and will do travel ball and high school ball. London can have the tournament and run it however they see fit as that is what they do anyway. I can tell you SEVERAL rules that were broken that would have sent you home in our district. We have to be straight up or we are sent home PERIOD! Our boys worked their butts off only to be done like this..... I hope tonight when the "TOURNAMENT director" (if thats what you wanna call him) AND those 3 other PEOPLE that were on the field have nightmares for weeks to come over doing these kids that way. It was pitful!!! I know all ours wanted to do was to play ball. Our league has spent over $5000.00 on motels due to their "cancellations". London/Laurel has gotten their last dime from us "Belfry folk".......

I know you are upset. BUT, Little League has nothing to do with it. Little League has been around for so long and has benefited so, so, so many kids. We were there last year and yes I will have to agree with you on the Tourney ppl there. Terrible, and they have no clue. One play last year cost us our shot. To beat all when my pitcher got on the mound he was handed a "Babe Ruth" baseball. I wasn't there this year. BUT, please, please, please, Don't blame Little League for something that some so called ignorant people do. Little league is the greatest organization that there is. If you don't think so, please tell me honestly that you don't sit, glued to the tube when it it aired on ESPN. I look foward to it every year, as well as so many ppl I know. I just hope that before I die. I get too see someone from this area or even better, this District in Wiliamsport.
