Oct. 16, 2012 jrd231	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: AAA Home Runs Crusher, these are not major players just because they can hit one out once in a while. I have hit eight to ten out per year and I am a little guy, but certainly not a major player. Whatever happen to good defense, base running etc etc etc. Seems as though all that is talked about are homeruns. A major player to me is one that can hit for high average, play solid defense and make very few mental errors. What is your take on what a major player is?
Oct. 16, 2012 jrd231	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: AAA Home Runs What a bunch of cry babies!! We are a 65 AA team and we have four guys who can hit them out, but we are allowed to have ONE and then an OUT! Why allow hot bats, hot balls, and tournaments in higher elevations? It is pure torcher for those guys. So guys, we are the lowest division and yet we get ONE homerun only while all you guys complain about your three, nine, ten, and a zillion homeruns that you hit. Please!
Oct. 10, 2012 jrd231	Topic: Tournaments Discussion: LV World Tournament Discussion We took fifteen players to the tournament and all enjoyed (including wives) playing teams we had never played against. All teams were competitive. Our umpires from Baltimore were terrific, the rest were not. Case in point- all players were to wear a wrist band or be called out when hitting. One opposing team did not wear them, pointed it out to the umpires, they were allowed to continue with no penalty (TD knew of this case). Why have the rule if not enforced? The fields at Shadow Rock were fair at best, but the worst thing was going thru some of these extremely bad areas to get to the ballpark. We will go back to St George next year. This tournament was too long and too expensive.
March 29, 2012 jrd231	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: FOLSOM AREA Weather conditions taits, it is clear and will be around 65 today, very slight chance of rain Friday, but 60% on Sat. That tells you exactly nothing, but it looks like the tournament will probably get started. There is no rain expected Sunday. Tough call for people coming from a distance. Good Luck.
