Guest Guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Heard the two Rocket teams lost bigtime in Philly. That's true.. Older kids lost by twenty first game to a Scranton team and then by a couple I believe to the same team again. Lindseys 15U team did very well in New Jersey, lost by two in the championship, probably should've won, heard it was some ugly ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Thanks Tony, You're still a jerk. Who's cares if it's TL anyways, which it is 99.9% most likely isn't, he's proven you morons wrong several times. And his team didn't even play in Sidney, idiot. They played In New Jersey.

Rockets 15U did not lose to any team by 20. Won in the semis over an undefeated Philly team that beat everyone in their division by 15. Lost in the championship game by 1 to a very good team that plays AAU basketball through July and has crushed TL team many times in the past and has won TL's tourney the past 2 years. Not bad for a Rocket's team that is playing one month of basketball for fun to get their baseball season. Rockets 13U was in the championship as well in the Philly tourney, do not know how they fared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 There is a team called the Coker Phenoms entered in a couple of Tony's tournaments age brackets. Read this story at this link: ouraaustory.blogspot.com/ They had a 13U team in Cortland and had a couple players who looked pretty old and what appears to be the coach in this story was coaching there. I don't see anything on the AAU site that would link you to banned coaches and players so I guess they are just another organization looking for money and only enforce their rules when confronted.

TL's tournament has 140+ teams in it. I don't think 4 teams is going to make a huge difference in the amount they make. And moron, know they rules, you could be 16 and in 8th grade playing on the 8th grade team. It goes by grade not age anymore. Know what you're talkin about.

I may be wrong but I think the previous poster was referring to the organization trying to make money, not this particular tournament. Also before you go and call people morons you should know the rules. While AAU is by grade now their is an age cap. This is copied from the official AAU website under the link for "eligiblity" 8TH GRADE DIVISION An athlete must be in the 8th grade as of October 1, 2010 and can be no older than 15 on August 31, 2011. For an athlete that is in the 9th grade as of October 1, 2010 wanting to petition to play down, they can be no older than 14 on August 31, 2011. So according to this if you are 16 now then you cannot play 8th grade AAU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what the mans short, I bet you have friends that are short but you wouldn't make fun of them huh? Come on let's talk basketball now. I believe the other poster was exaggerating when he said 16, but I could be wrong... Those kids in the article were barely over the age limit, and we don't really know how many age exceptions they had.. Calm down... TL is having a big tournament this weekend. Should have some good competition, especially for other crap teams around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Proven People Wrong Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Each Rocket team made it to the championship and each one lost by 1 point. The older Rocket team actually played a 10th grade team in the finals. Rockets are done for the year. Speaking of bad news traveling fast, 9th grade red rockets played the 9TH GRADE Backcourt hoops team, lost by seventeen, then played in a crappy 2-3 zone the secod game and still lost by one.

Again, Anti Rocket fan, if you really knew what you were talking about, the 15U Rockets played zone in the first game and man to man in the finals. "Wow, how does bad news travel so fast and so wrong. Rockets 15U did not lose to any team by 20. Won in the semis over an undefeated Philly team that beat everyone in their division by 15.

Actually Rockets did not chose to play up, they were selected to play up because of their extremely great success and 1st place finishes in the back court hoops tourneys. Stop trashing any AAU team, second stringer player or parent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also when you enter these tournaments you can choose A B or C. Go to Backcourt Hoops site and check the registration site. Rockets always enter as A and when Backcourt Hoops doesn't have enough A team requests they push the teams requesting A up to the next age group. I see some teams that are A teams in Tony's tournament playing down. Do you really think there is some ranking system that the tournament directors look at when putting the schedule together. Also look at the Endwell teams (Flyers)entered for this weekend. Every Flyer team is entered in the lowest division for their age group. They requested that. If one of the Flyers teams wins their division someone on here will say they beat the best in the world as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are in that division as opposed to playing real AAU teams that are composed of allstars from several schools. Get an effin clue before you post.

They didn't have a strong division, almost never do because of the smaller tournaments they play in. On the other hand Rage lost in the championship by 2 in new jersey, a much better accomplishment. Knowing the gallaghers they'll probably play with the flyers team this weekend cause that's just how they are, bums who think they own everything. Nice people just clueless when it comes to basketball. It would suck to be those other boys that have put hard work in these past weeks just to know the g-show was coming to take their playing time.

The Cortland tournament had a 120 teams or so and was not small. The only one bigger so far is Tony's this weekend. You damn the Gallaghers because they have their kids play "A" division basketball to get better. The other Endwell kids could do the same. In fact the 2 9th graders that play for Rage do. Somebody said the Flyers are a school team so I would say the Gallaghers are entitled to play for them. If the other parents don't like it then they should get their sons better instruction and on stronger teams. The Endwell players playing Rage and Rockets are superior to the rest from playing the best and a lot of hard work. School ball and entering AAU tournaments in the weakest divisions is not going to make great players just recreational ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

School ball and entering AAU tournaments in the weakest divisions is not going to make great players just recreational ones. I see your point and I think it's and excellent one. The four players that don't play flyers from M-E are arguably the best 9th and 8th graders( two gallaghers and siniki and wisnewski) around except for Krowiak, and I'm probably missing one or two other players.. However i can see how parents would be aggravated about the gallagher boys playing with the Flyers. If they want to play another tournament they should've played on a team originally scheduled to play more, I just don't think it's right to hop from one team to another and hog playing time cause we all know Ocker doesn't have the balls to say no...( remind you of connollys maybe? Just maybe?)... But on the other hand the Gallagher boys are both great, nice kids and like siniki and wisnewski they put in lots of effort at least in season. I believe Siniki and wisnewski both play and go to a lot more off season camps than the gallaghers.. Just what I've heard.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
