Discussion: Reclassifying Teams

Staff, after reading you latest post, I believe there needs to be some re-wording to #3. Most of Rochester 50's were major plus in 2011 so by #3 they can't play major in 2013.

Beas, I knew you would like to comment on this! ha ha!

And Melvin13, congrates on the win! It's tough to beat a team if everyone throughout the lineup hits!

usmc, we played them two years ago in manassas in the quarter finals. It was a close game but we forfeited to them. One of our players was ejected and we only had 10.
They were a very good Major team then also.

Rochester did pick up on guy that was hitting MONSTER shots!
usmc0311, I'm sure you saw my team, Southern Elite, play. We should be moved down to AAA, right?

Omar, last week was an ISF/ISSA tournament. They don't have Major Plus team, although Team 1 (rated M+ by SSUSA and SPA I believe) was there playing in the highest division, Major. By the way, Rochester beat them.

So what's the solution, just have 4 teams in M+?, just 2??

Do I think Rochester 50's could win a 50 Major Plus national? No
I do think they would be competitive.
If all the Major Plus teams that didn't have much of a chance of winning a national were moved to major that would only leave 3 or 4 team in that division. That's the problem with that division now.
Teams need to be moved up, not down.

I can tell you first hand about Rochester 50's. The lost both pool games in Plant City this past weekend. From there they went on to the championships, not sure if they won.
It looks as if they have picked up at least one fantastic hitter since last year.
Maybe the committee will take a closer look at them!
If they did win, congrats!!

Discussion: Combat 52 CAL Frank Henry

TT, I have a black Centenarian but it's still in the wrapper. As for the feel of th 52 Cal, mine is a 28el and it feel much like my 30el MM. I didn't mention in my previous post that after 150 swings, the paint started to chip and that the temps were probably in the low 50's. I don't believe it is the tank that my old Velocity 2 is but then it is much more fun to hit than my vel 2.

It's an NSA/USSSA bat. I bought two to use for bp. I hit it about 150 times yesterday and like it. Not as long as a senior but it does have a large sweet spot like one.
ju25 is correct about the stamps, not the latest.

Discussion: bursa sac

About 7 years ago I thought I had rotator cuff problems as I couldn't lift my right arm above my head. I went to an orthopedist and he determined that I had bursitis. An anti-inflammatory fixed that.
Good luck with your surgery.

This comes as a shock to me. Sammy was a great player and one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet.

We hit today with the temps in the 40's. My Velocity II held up well.
