i'll tell you what there is not a bad team in the league. Not to mention that gardner has defeated the bombers twice and beat cv/hillsboro. Mpcg has given scares to the likes of hatton, cv, and hope. THis is one time that you can say that from top to bottom this is the best league in the state.

I'll say it has been that way for the last 3-4 years. Prior to this season, i played two years on the bombers and all the teams in our section were pretty good. The thing was, our coaches kept talking about how they were better in previous years, and that they had actually lost talent over the summers.
I never blame myself when I'm not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn't my fault that I'm not hitting, how can I get mad at myself?
