Getting Down!

[SamNVa]

Dakota,

I certainly did not intend to demean ASA softball by comparing it to LL baseball. My intent was to indicate the wide spread influence that ASA has on softball. If you ask almost anyone on the street who sanctions youth baseball the answer will be Little League, even though there are many other programs like Dixie, Pony, and Babe Ruth for example. I wanted to give Chuck a familiar reference to indicate that ASA was the softball equivalent of LL baseball in terms of number of teams, national influence, etc. not in terms of play.

I call HS, ASA, LL, and BR softball in my area. The ASA teams are by far the best teams as you stated.
