Do some forum members live nearby the Shawn T. Mansfield? Aruba have his national team playing. Nikko, is your son following the games? If you live nearby put your arubian t-shirt and go see the games.

*Arubalisa* · 08-19-2010, 01:21 PM

Does anyone (Bully

) know how far they have gone?
My brother is hoping for Aruba vs. Toms River in the World Series

I tried looking online last night, but it is way too confusing with all the divisions.

nikko · 08-19-2010, 04:10 PM

lisa...thats the young kids by me in williamsport. i think puerto rico knocked aruba out for that awhile ago. we are rooting for the toms river kids! the one bully is talking about is the senior league...i think 14-16 yr olds. we have been following along with that also....another team from nj is in it...vineland i believe. my son says it just scarey that as a mom and a girl i know this much about baseball.....i think he is right!! lol

Too bad they aren't in Williamsport, I grew up there and still only live a couple hours away. Dad worked at Little League for close to a decade and his girlfriend works there now. I flew in there earlier today with a plane load of kids, parents and grandparents. It's a fun time of year to go back home, very little to do the rest of the year though.

Hopefully the Toms River team and parents are better than when I remember them being there. They caused a ton of problems and were extremely abusive. Obviously not all of them, but enough of them to make a lasting impression on a lot of people.

chadd---i knew those kids and parents....we lived in toms river then.....them being a problematic and abusive is an understatement! lol they all thought they were stars! this group comes from the "national" league.....whole different world down there. lol
