Nov. 10, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Playing after knee replacement? Thanks B.K. My surgeon said playing would be all right, but recommended that I not play the outfield (my position) due to the pivoting and running. The Smith and Nephew seems to be a good option that might require a little more surgical work to "personalize" it. Regards, Mel |
Nov. 10, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Playing after knee replacement? I've scheduled a knee replacement (Zimmer Next-Gen) and would like to hear from others who have played or tried to play after this procedure. Most orthopaedic surgeons don't recommend it, but it's hard to give up. |
Nov. 7, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Shoulder replacement Harry, Good wishes for you and your recovery. While golfing and hitting are a plus, it would be nice if you can get back into the complete game. Regards to you and Terri, Mel |
Oct. 14, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Team pictures action shots from the 2013 World Masters Thank you for posting The US,Jobs v Hill Contracting (65AA) pictures. Lots of good action shots. All the best, Mel |
Oct. 11, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Team pictures action shots from the 2013 World Masters Thanks Jack........I'm sure a lot of the guys would like some action shots. Regards, Mel |
Oct. 11, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Team pictures action shots from the 2013 World Masters Jack, We met while you were taking pictures of US.Jobs and another 65AA team. I can't find any of those pictures. Please advise. Thanks Mel |
Oct. 8, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Sad News http://gfwd.at/17cxKLu Paul, Dan and his family are in the prayers of all of us from US.Jobs. There are not words to express our feelings other than our most sincere condolences. Mel |
Oct. 7, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: A True Triple Crown Harry, How's your health? Is your shoulder getting better? We were very short in Vegas, but everyone pitched (and hit) in and we were fortunate to double dip Hill Contracting from TX. We won each of these by double dipping the team that beat us in the winner's bracket final. All the best to you and Terri and I hope to see you in the future. Mel P.S. Please work on Jim...we need the outfielder and hitter in him. :>) |
Oct. 7, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: A True Triple Crown U.S.Jobs (65AA) won the ISA World in Columbus, IN, The SPA World in Dalton, GA, and The SSUSA World Masters in Las Vegas. In my biased opinion, that represents The True Triple Crown of Senior Softball. |
Oct. 6, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tribute to Cappy Cappy was a true ambassador of the game, either knowing everyone or getting to know them. I will miss his trademark fist-bump and "I see you workin'". All of those involved in Indiana softball loved him as much as he loved them, and will continue to enjoy fond memories. |
Oct. 5, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 65 AA winner at World Masters It was terrific meeting new friends who can play a little ball as well. Hats off to all of the great people we had a chance to meet and compete against. Particular shout outs to The Kauai 65's and Sacramento Buds for being such great competitors and people. As they say in Hawaii, "A Hui Ho".........till we meet again. Mel |
Sept. 21, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 2013 SPA World Series BW, We're a 65 team as well, but have no one who can hit it out regularly and only a couple who can hit it out at all. Good luck in Vegas and stay healthy. Mel |
Sept. 20, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 2013 SPA World Series BW, I think the underlying issue was Dayton's hard feelings since they hadn't beaten either of our Indy teams in a while. Regardless, I appreciate your inquiries and understanding. For whom do you play, in what division, and are you going to Vegas? Mel |
Sept. 20, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 2013 SPA World Series Thanks for changing threads and your answer, Bob. The alleged offense did happen in a different tourney, but it was SPA. Since our player immediately dropped off the other roster, we thought it would be a non-issue. However, when we played Dayton at Dalton, they were prepared to file a protest and Ridge told our player and manager that if it were upheld they would both be barred from SPA for a year. That is why I believe Ridge to be inconsistent. Regards, Mel |
Sept. 20, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Congratulations To 65 Scrap Iron Phiten at SPA Worlds Mr. Wood, One of our players had played in The Circle City Classic with us (65AA) and later played with Brickyard (60AAA) in the same tournament. Brickyard defeated The Dayton Legends in the 60AAA, and apparently there were hard feelings on Dayton's part. Afterward, he was dropped from the Brickyard roster. He's played with us all year, even in league play, and it was a shame that he couldn't finish with us in Dalton. Regards, Mel |
Sept. 20, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Congratulations To 65 Scrap Iron Phiten at SPA Worlds Once again, Ridge showed poor decision making when he allowed The Dayton Legends (65's) to threaten a protest and thereby kept a player from US.Jobs from playing on Sunday. How can you be sure what he would do when there is great inconsistency in his rulings. |
May 1, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Brickyard Tournament Well, the schedule's out and, for the 65 and 70's there seem to be 2 games on each diamond (5 and 6) at 9:00, 10:30, and so on. Some teams will be very disappointed to show up for a 9:00 game and not get to play it. Has this "glitch" been fixed, and will we find out before showing up for no game? Thanks, Mel |
April 26, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Brickyard Tournament Thanks Dave! See you there. Mel |
April 26, 2013 lemons | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Brickyard Tournament Less than a week until the Brickyard and still no schedule. It would help the out of towners if it were posted in a timely fashion. Mel |
Jan. 27, 2013 lemons | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Prescription Glasses I use single vision glasses in the outfield because I think it helps me pick up the ball quicker. I don't wear them when I hit. No experience with transition glasses. Regards, Mel |
