Oct. 15, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Bats Discussion: Take responsibilty Silk, makes no difference where the bat was purchased. NO WARRANTY is all over the Ultra II. I'm having a hard time understanding what some of you don't understand. Warranties come with higher pricing. If you want warranties, they can give them to us at a price. Bats will become 400.00 and you will get a one time replacement. That way they can still make the same margins. The old saying is simple, can you read the fine print? It's right there in black & white!
Oct. 15, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: AAA Home Runs As long as homeruns are a major part of the criteria to place teams into or limit divisions because of the numbers of homeruns hit, this is always going to be a problem. Years ago, when we were all younger, the associations had directors at every tourney played. This changed when complexes starting going up & more tourneys were being held and directors were not at these parks watching the games. It became a money grab for the complexes and it made the directors jobs easier because they did not have to be at the park, because the complexes were running the tourney themselves. Directors could see who were the teams playing above, below or in the correct divisions and rectify that during or most likely after that tourney was completed. The only thing most of these associations know about your team or teams now, have they have paid the money. JMO
Oct. 15, 2012 Pricer	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Bat issue Nope, I do not work for any bat company. I have been involved in the retail sporting goods for a good length of time. I have listened, overheard and had to referee this type of debates with customers for years. My recommendation to these folks then is the same then as it is today. STOP buying them or stop complaining when they don't last as long as you feel they should. Do you or anyone for that matter go and offer the manufactures any more money when the equipment exceeds the average expectations? To see or hear of anyone who knows what a warranty is before buying a bat and then complain that it did not last as long as THEY FEEL IT SHOULD HAVE, is mind boggling. There is a reason they do not warranty these bats, plain and simple. For the free one you won, please get over it. No outlay of money and you want a replacement? Look back at what your stating or asking on here, knowing you SHOULD NOT RECEIVE ANYTHING. They should say we're sorry, BUT WOULD YOU LIKE TO TRY ANOTHER? Most of todays players will just buy another! JMO
Oct. 13, 2012 Pricer	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Bat issue Ronnie, it's free! If you got one swing out of it, you got your monies worth. NO WARRANTY! That's part of playing senior ball. It's a price we pay for the technolgy we choose. Like I said, why would anyone expect anymore from a non warranty product. No warranty expressed or implied! JMO
Oct. 13, 2012 Pricer	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Bat issue For whatever it's worth. These are no warranty products. It doesn't matter if they are purchased for thousands of dollars or they are given away for free. They have no warranty! It is/was known before purchase. One swing or a thousand, it makes no difference. I’m amazed that some feel something should be replaced knowing there is no warranty. This is not directed at the two of you here on this post, it's for everyone who feels you should get something back knowing you should get nothing back. JMO
Aug. 31, 2012 Pricer	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Player Ratings Fred, back to your original question. It would almost impossible to rate each player in senior ball in my opinion. I've never thought players should have a rating, but teams should if your gonna have any type of rating system at all. Everything we do in ball as far as rating goes is based on the homerun(s). If a player or players make the team a better so as they should be moved up, so be it. But rating the players I think is wrong. JMO! What do you think?
Aug. 21, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Bats Discussion: Testing Taits, I would hope you've directed your last line in your comments to someone other than me. Sometimes people with some knowledge can be pompous assholes! I quess this was the last time I'll ask the so called educated softball people any questions!
Aug. 21, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Bats Discussion: Testing Thanks. http://www.acs.psu.edu/drussell/bats/compalum.html
Aug. 20, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Bats Discussion: Testing Whoa boys! This is not what I was looking for. Just a real simple question and I was not looking for a precise answer. Did Tri18 ever test the bat ball combo previously used versus the bats & balls of todays game. Tri18, I think or feel you already have an answer that would suffice. Thanks
Aug. 20, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Bats Discussion: Testing Tri18, how much trouble would it be or maybe you already have done the testing of the speed of the balls first 100 feet hit with todays composite bats & balls versus the metal & wood bats & balls used back then. After reading your post, I would suspect you have an idea what they would be. Thanks
Aug. 19, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Bats Discussion: Ambush Review Folks, Everyone wants to use the technology card when this conversation arises. IT DOES NOT APPLY HERE! to use the statements "nothing wrong with wanting to take advantage of technology...we use improved drivers and irons in golf, better bowling balls, better hockey stick and every other sport allows these advances..." or "Can't understand why you guys detest technology. I check my e-mail on my phone while my car parks itself. Does that make less of a man?" All of these new technologies are not created with the thought that developing this could hurt or kill someone. Please don't take my comments as an invitation for an all out debate, but please use common sense when trying to make a comparision.
Aug. 16, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Tournaments Discussion: What 50 teams are playing in Northern Championship in Lansing? 17Black, no we will not be attending this years tourney. We nursing way to many injuries. That is the excuse I'm using anyway. Good luck to all.
Aug. 4, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Bats Discussion: gsc bat latest web site update Pitcher55, there is a difference from dedicating something and naming it after someone. Your defending someone who don't seem to want to defend himself! For me this is not even relevant anylonger. What bat company?
July 18, 2012 Pricer	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Big D Headed to Cleveland , Ohio - Mike, what Combat were you swinging. Send me a email please.
July 13, 2012 Pricer	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: WHO GETS THE BALL?? What suprises me more than anything, is this question has even been ask!
July 12, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: PLAYER RELEASE Commitment? Either your good for your word or your not. As a player, your commitment is not only to the manager but all of your teammates as well. JMO
July 6, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Michigan Senior Classic No I don't think we're a Major club. We've played some Major teams and I don't think we are anything close to be a Major club. Great job on the spelling!
July 6, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Michigan Senior Classic TitanHD, what do mean "rated" Major team, not two Major teams? Also, it's spelled Sheeran!
June 29, 2012 Pricer	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Big D Headed to Cleveland , Ohio - GB, what bat do you swing in senior ball? Also, what percentage in distance do you feel the senior bats get over the ASA bats. Have you talked to Schleede lately?
June 26, 2012 Pricer	Topic: Teams looking for players Discussion: Over 50 He's a good talent, but I think his way of going about playing the game was different from the way the coach wanted it played. The rest of the team agreed with the coach!
