The Mountaineer Park Hitmen, rank #1 team in the nation by USASportsrankings.com 18/17
Are coming to Santa Clara for the championship, and you guys better be ready

I really have no idea if you're a good team or not...never heard of you...and its fine with me if you win it, but those sports rankings aren't very meaningful.

You need a better argument.

Who's on your team?

Just
Do your home work, check us out. We played everyone. Who is in our team? A really group of kids from all over the country.

OK, how do I find out about your team? You didn't play in East Cobb or Jupiter that I remember. Where have you played? What have you won?

Kids from "all over the country?" Thats fine, but if true, you're breaking Palomino rules.

Again, I have no stake in who wins it...just wondering.

I find it interesting that Softhands was not on the Florida board talking smack ... guess he/she figures it is okay to rabble rouse in another state.

Hmmm. The #1 team in America...the Hitmen lost their first game to Santa Clara. Didn't see it...friend did. He didn't think either team looked like a potential WS champion. We'll see?!

Rankings are based on how many subscriptions the TEAM members BUY.....

I've seen it twice where a TEAM will go to one of their sponsored tournaments and get all the team members registered (which allows them all a vote) and all of a sudden that team shoots to Number ONE...

(I did it with one of my son's teams.... once I figured it out)

IMHO... Its all a MONEY making scheme.... preying on the dreams and egos of kids and parents....

Yep! I looked at those rankings. There's a team in the top-10 that I DO know and its a joke. The team has lots of parents who would likely look at this stuff and consider it important...so they probably did what you said.

The #1 team in America, the Hitmen, are now 0-2 in the tournament I see.

Interesting.

Santa Clara Red Sox win it over Orange County Renegades. No "ranked" teams in finals.

Just
Congratulations, that happens to the best,
has been a long summer. Mountianeers still a much better team period, and out.

Softhands - I was just having fun with you...maybe a little over the top. Sorry.

In all seriousness, I really didn't care who won. Best of luck down the road...really mean that!

It also illustrates...

what MOST RANKINGS mean....

Not a hill of beans....
