@CFBKings The referees must have come from Tulsa National Little League

[Brian Nilson @BrianNilson003]

@NatalieWoody @SAXETU @Maren_Angus There is a general consensus that Regulation IX is poorly written, confusing and vague. As a result, leagues have been finding ways to play within the vague rules, not skirting them, in order to remain eligible.

[Brian Nilson @BrianNilson003]

@NatalieWoody @SAXETU @Maren_Angus This is irrelevant to the Boerne team playing in “non-Little League” special games. This form is for Leagues (not teams) that want to host special games within their league evidenced by the information being requested in the form. Teams wouldn’t know this information.

[Brian Nilson @BrianNilson003]

@NatalieWoody @SAXETU @Maren_Angus The LLU article that you shared did however refer to regulation IX for understanding.

[Brian Nilson @BrianNilson003]

@NatalieWoody @SAXETU @Maren_Angus Unfortunately, from time to time, the website has been known to contain conflicting information to the rule book. The rule book is ultimately the source of truth.

[Brian Nilson @BrianNilson003]

@SAXETU @NatalieWoody @Maren_Angus Regulation IX(c) allows tournament teams to play in "non-Little League special games". No waiver needed, no appliction needed just "approval" from the Charter Committee, Regional Director and District Administrator. The rule does not specify what "approval" means nor a process.

@TexasSoftball @atwood_reese We may as well just get rid of umpires on the field at this point in time and let someone watching video make all of the calls.

@espn @MCWS What is a "Grande league moustache" and why is it relevant to the college baseball world series?

[Brian Nilson @BrianNilson003]

Also, sending commentators to a rules clinic would benefit their commentary.

[Brian Nilson @BrianNilson003]

@espn #WCWS #MCWS Unfortunately I had to turn off the broadcasts of college baseball and softball. How about suggesting that the commentators start calling games in an unbiased fashion?

@taylorswift13 For all of us who have had our works stolen, robbed, reworked, or rebranded by venture capital firms, I salute you for being able to reclaim your work. I wish the rest of us had your resources to do the same with our creations.

@WhiteHouse Unfortunately, the Sith have Red light sabers... Looks like Trump is either a Sith, or AI generated the wrong light saber color

@GovKathyHochul I was fired by Amazon for the same reason even tho I was hired as a full time remote employee. Will you offer me a job too even tho it wasn't Trump and Elon that fired me?

@pattonoswalt Anne Frank was persecuted by the Germans during the genocide against Jews. Are you suggesting we are all like Anne Frank being persecuted by our governors?

@JayInslee please stop fear mongering and allow our daily lives to proceed. Don't cancel events that we have all payed good money for. Are you going to reimburse is out of your own pocket?!?!
