| Aug. 9, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: nature of bat cheating... Facts are not always useless. These numbers include the years from 1959 to 1975. The Viet Cong and upon occasion the North Vietnamese Regulars would often wear civilian clothes. Civilians could thus be mistaken for a being a supporter of one side or the other and be shot. They were also sometimes killed simply for being caught up in a battle. South Vietnam suffered the majority of an estimated [9] 2,000,000 civilians killed this way[4] Rummel's review of the various data led to a mid-level estimate of 843,000 civilian deaths in both North and South Vietnam. The detailed Figures are not complete, but the mid-level R.J. Rummel estimates are that around 391,000 South Vietnamese civilians died. Another 643,000 died as the Communist North Vietnamese consolidated power. Rummel's low-level estimate was 361,000 South Vietnamese civilians and his high-estimate was 720,000.[10] Below is a loose outline of which forces caused these non-uniformed and civilian deaths. The Communist Vietnamese government in 1995 estimated that 2,000,000 Vietnamese civilians on both sides died in the conflict, but does not allocate these deaths between North and South Vietnam.[4] Rummel estimated (apart from the post 1975 communist power consolidation) that a low-level of 486,000 civilians died; the mid-level was 843,000, with a high level at 1,200,000 |
| Aug. 6, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: nature of bat cheating... WOW drug dealers are now hero's. What has our country stooped to. We were once a proud nation of people that fought for the rights of the weak and poor. We have now become the weak and poor with the attitude if you can't beat them join them. That has got to be the most screwed up logic I have ever heard, he's a hero, he a crimminal. |
| Aug. 4, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders Usually when a guy makes a great defensive diving catch, wouldn't you know it they usually are the ones to lead off an inning with a double. |
| Aug. 4, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders Joe some of the hardest balls I've ever hit have been caught. |
| Aug. 4, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders Maybe both defenses were makig great plays. |
| Aug. 4, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders If I am wrong Joe so is MLB because they are the ones that inacted the new rules to change the way the bats are now being made. |

| Aug. 4, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders I get it you want hot balls and bats, I even posted that. The arguement is that you once again posted false statements and made claims to them as facts. You posted that maple was a hotter material than ash, meaning it performs at a higher BBS. Well that is absolutly false, it is lighter so weaker players can increase there bat speed which allows them to hit longer and faster balls. A-rod swings an ash bat, as does Jeter, Posada and hundreds of other great players. Most of the top hitters in the game swing ash bats becuse they don't like to break there gamers, it's the middle of the road guys that tend to swing more maple that ash. When you watch games look for the best hitter from each team you can tell the ash from the heavy grain. Maple sales are huge because there are way more middle of the road players than stars. |
| Aug. 4, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders Wood density WHITE ASH .65-.85 MAPLE .6-.75 look for yourself it is the weight of the wood not that it performs better. It allows the player to swing the bat faster BECAUSE IT IS LIGHTER. (did I say it slow enough for you?) |
| Aug. 4, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders I hear you Joe after all that mumbo jumbo and rederick, you want to mis-hit home runs and buy performance. WE GOT IT. |
| Aug. 3, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders Yes thet were tested 1 hour prior to the game. Rusty should hit home runs like that he has worked at it in the weight room and on the field, you just want to buy a bat and ball and hit them like him against guys that don't nearly have the reflexes enough to protect themselves. |
| Aug. 3, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: nature of bat cheating... Garbage in garbage out..... |
| Aug. 3, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: It can't happen to me? Well surf thanks for the advice, I don't even own a bike so I am safe for a while. I am however in the office everyday and I am trying to keep my pressure's down. |
| Aug. 3, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders The bat that Rusty used was 400+comp and the balls were 265to 284 comp. Senior bats broken in are in the mid 100's. |
| Aug. 3, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders Brian you hit the nail right on the head. You have to hit the ball just right to hit a home run. That is what it used to take to hit hit one when home run hitters were a valued asset to a team and there was no home run rules. Now almost anyone can hit them and a base hitter is a more valued player, is that a bad thing? I made a living hitting base hits playingball but I also could hit home runs when needed. By your statement it seems as thouh you think you should be rewarded with a hime run for a bad swing. PS: The knucling is much improved and we have also learned that the softer the bat the more it tends to knuckle. The new bat the Rusty hit the bomb with is a very stiff ASA bat designed to hit a .52 ball. Thet wont hit .44 nearly as well. joe say all you want the balls had a tested compression of 265 to 284 prior to the game at 72 degrees. |
| Aug. 2, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders Brian, I have been fighting for a safer gamefor many years. That is why Joe cries about my post's so much. |
| July 31, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders Once again you speak of something you know nothing about. all wood bat have been tested and proven to have the same BBS. That is batted ball speed. The reason maple has become the bat of choice of many of the MLB players is because it has the ability of being dried to make the bat several ounces lighter than the same cut out of ash or birch. Hickory is heaveier than them all. So lighter bat allowed the players to increase their bat speeds. 3 years ago MLB saw that the dried bats were shattering causing injuries on the field and immediatly took ACTION TO MAKE THE GAME SAFEER. They came up with the ink dye test which tests the bats so the manufactures do not over dry the wood. If you look closely at players at the plate on the handle above the hands you can notice a diamond shape. (more noticeable on black handled bats) That is where the bats have been tested for the ink dye test. The reason you don't see bamboo bats in the MLB it is a reed not a wood and they do flex more and give the hitter an advantage, Mlb has outlawed them. |
| July 30, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders First off I may have had a stroke but I am not that dumb. You are talking about professional paid athletes and trying to make a comparison to a senior softball player? WOW I thought I knew what being Delusional was this past saturday, guess not. Second a baseball has a cor of .50-.52 and a compression of 250 to 275, the reason it is more dangerous than the new .52/275 softball is the weight to impact size. Both balls traveling at the same speed hitting an head form the softball will have a much less impact. Now back to the pros. They have much greater reflexes yet they are still getting hit with balls that are traveling slower than balls hit by many of the senior players. (does this make sense?) The reason it is not a big factor in the MLB first off a guy hitting 300 is one of the best on the team. A senior hitting 300 is coaching 1st base. Second a ball coming at you at the speeds they are in the MLB with the movement there is now way you can hit a ball where you want to with any real control. Yet players are still getting hit by hit balls, AND they are traveling slower than a ball off of a senior bat.(make sense yet?) Then put a senior pitcher closer to home plate than the MLB mound and it really doesn't make sense. Just think, they are using they same spec ball from 1940 bats made of the same material since 1895 and they PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES get hurt, yet we want to increase the speed of the bats and they balls when we turn 50? Now 40? Make sense Yet? |
| July 30, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders No need to dumb the balls down in MLB, they are swinging bats made of the same material since 1895. |
| July 30, 2010 trumpball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Battle of the Borders The dudley .52/300 and the trump .52/275 are the same core. They are marked differently because there is no real spec yet from ASA so they are marking theres 300 to make you think it is better. You must believe. |
