| April 24, 2013 JDub | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tournament Results Congratulations Alan & Team 1 Sports ! ! ! "Evening the playing field with those rules kept every game close and most importantly safe for pitchers and fun!" Sounds like a Fair & Equiable Format! What was it that made it Safe for Pitchers, Alan ? ?? Regards, Jeff White #7 Arizona Elite |
| April 16, 2013 JDub | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Southwest Championships, Vegas Thanks for the feedback guys! Yah Tim, we don't quite have the Softball Population like California. We have a few SSUSA Events throughout the year here in Arizona, and a couple Fun Tourney's up in the cool pines during the summer. Maybe if/when NSA has some Senior Events out here we will be able to play a few more 1-day Tourney's?! Arizona Elite was really looking forward to playing the 5-6 Major Plus Teams out West, but it sounds like a lot of what I mentioned above is starting to unfold. There are still several Good Major Teams to play, it just would have been nice to have 10+ combined Teams in an Upper Bracket! I believe all of our Major Plus Teams should Collaborate our Schedules so we can maintain our competitive level of play with Maximum Participation. So-Cal & Vegas are much more Economic for our Travels from AZ, but that's not to say we can't mix in 1 or 2 Tourney's somewhere in the middle to get the Nor-Cal Teams as well as NW Legends in the mix. We dropped Mesquite & Reno from our Original Schedule, but I believe we're gonna play in Sac-Town?! Tim, you and I discussed Medford before, and I thought we determined that it isn't truly the ASA 50's World?! It's more of just a Senior Festival Tourney?! More on the topic of Arizona Senior Softball, I personally would like to see a mix of Combo Tourney's with 40s and 50s. Again, we don’t have the Population, but this would help Grow our Program(s) for the future, and allow us to maintain our own Competiveness in state! Nuff said, but let's try to keep a collective open line of communication so we can continue to Grow our Senior Program(s) on the West Coast . . . Good Luck & Be Safe, Jeff White #7 Arizona Elite |
| April 14, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Have read different rules for the pitchers would like for ssusa to explain all new rules. donll, It actually took me 2 years to give-in to using Senior Bats, just ask my Ole Buddy George Robinson, and former Coach Johnny da Hoser! I still use my Easton Synergy Bats every now-n-then, but I do feel like a Hypocrite at times. As the old saying goes, Don't take a Knife to a Gun Fight ? ! ? ! Mad Walter - you Old Fart, I do Play by the Rules, but as a Smart Pitcher, I take Pride in Bending them now-n-then. It's especially Fun when other Teams Whine about it, and a certain Tournament Director (Insert Marv here) thinks he knows the Rules, but his UIC has to Correct him and tell him he is Wrong (LOL) ! ! ! Bottom Line is to have Fun, and I for one have Fun on both sides of the Ball! I also have yet to run into any SSUSA Staff and/or Umpires that have not had Fun during our Games - Win or Lose ! ! ! Be Safe, Have Fun, Jeff White #7 Arizona Elite |
| April 14, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Have read different rules for the pitchers would like for ssusa to explain all new rules. So Mad Dog, You want Stricter Pitching Rules in a Senior Recreational Amateur Sport because a 60 year Old Fart (your Division) has an Advantage over your Wrinkled @$$ with your Stooopid Wonder Stick by taking a couple steps or "Walking the Box" to Toss you an Underhanded Cookie?!?! Like I keep saying - just use a Friggen Tee! No more Apples to Oranges Comparisons - Tee it High, and let it Fly (LOL) ! ! ! Do you not realize how Silly/Bitchy/Whiny you Look/Sound? Have you ever watched Jeff Dunham the Ventriloquist? You guys remind me of his Dummy, Walter (LOL) ! ! ! All in Good Fun Fellas, All in Good Fun . . . |
| April 14, 2013 JDub | Topic: Bats Discussion: P413 revisited Malo37, Johnny Allen says you can use his GSC Bat whenever you want! All you need to do is call and let him know When & Where (LOL) ! ! ! LMFAO, @$$hole #2 |
| April 14, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Have read different rules for the pitchers would like for ssusa to explain all new rules. Oh boy, here we go! I can just hear all the Whining about what Tiger got away with at The Masters (LOL)! ! ! So tell me - was it a Rule, Guideline, or did the Tournament Officials show Favoritism towards Tiger (LOL) ? ? ? Penalty? Yes! DQ? No! Favoritism? You make the Call!? As I stated before, "when all the Whining and Dust has settled, and the Umpire & TD have made their Ruling, I move-on!" All in Good Fun, Jeff "Whitey" White |
| April 14, 2013 JDub | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Southwest Championships, Vegas I am Curious & Disappointed! There are at least 5 Active Major-Plus 50's Teams in Cali, yet none are Playing in the Southwest Championships in Vegas!? Is there another Tournament that weekend? Injuries? Work/Schedule Conflicts? Saving funds for Reno? In Review of the Tournament Schedule, what am I missing ? ? ? Regards, Jeff White #7 Arizona Elite |
| April 12, 2013 JDub | Topic: Bats Discussion: P413 revisited All kidding aside, today's Bat Technolgy is out of Control! Pretty much anyone can Hit Bombs, even your sister (if applicable). This Technology makes them (Legally) Very Dangerous (STOOOPID) for many, and I for one don't believe they belong in any - not just in the Senior Game (IMHO) ! ! ! Be Safe Have Fun, Jeff White #7 Arizona Elite |
| April 12, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Have read different rules for the pitchers would like for ssusa to explain all new rules. Hey Curveball, Omar just admitted he had a Complaint! Complaining, Whining - Potato, Potata, Tomato, Tomata . . . |
| April 12, 2013 JDub | Topic: Bats Discussion: what is the..... LOL . . . You used Rolled & Tamper Proof in the same sentence ! ! ! |

| April 12, 2013 JDub | Topic: Bats Discussion: P413 revisited GREAT, ANOTHER STOOOPID BAT ! ! ! HEY TIMMY, WHEN IS YOUR STOOOPID BAT DUE TO RELEASE ? ? ? |
| April 11, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Have read different rules for the pitchers would like for ssusa to explain all new rules. How about this, those who Whine about Pitching may as well play Tee-Ball! Move-on when Umpires & TD's make a Ruling based on your Pitching Question(s). When I Pitch, I try everything I can - Legal or Illegal, but when all the Whining and Dust has settled, and the Umpire & TD have made their Ruling, I move-on! Except for in Marv's Tournaments, cuz Marv doesn't know what 1-time past the hip is, a-la Windmill Pitch. Even his own UIC told him he is/was WRONG (LOL) ! ! ! MY STANCE ON BATS IS KRYSTAL KLEER - I DON'T LIKE THEM, CUZ THEY ARE STOOOOOOPID (IMHO) ! ! ! Nuff said, Joaquin Blanco |
| April 11, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Have read different rules for the pitchers would like for ssusa to explain all new rules. How does taking steps or "Walking the Box" give a Pitcher an Advantage? Would you Whine if a Pitcher was "Walking the Box" Backwards? Today's Bats are Stoopid! Legal and/or Not, they are Ridonkulous! Bats are supposed to Degrade with Time & Use, not get Hotter ! ! ! Hot outta da Wrapper & Break-in Period. These are Terms Describing - Super Duper bat Performance. So again, Today's Bats are STOOPID (IMHO) ! ! ! Have Fun & Be Safe, Jeff White #7 Arizona Elite |
| April 9, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Have read different rules for the pitchers would like for ssusa to explain all new rules. Seriously ? ? ? Why even bother having a Pitcher if all you Girls wanna do is Bitch about Pitchers Tossing Cookies!? Forget the Goalie Equipment, and signing a Waiver - just use a Friggen Tee ! ! ! Some Rules are Rules, some are Guidelines. In the end the Batter always has (and wants) the Advantage! Umpires & TD's are starting to be a bit more Lenient, Understanding the Inherent Dangers of being a Sitting Duck ! ! ! Shut-up & Pitch is being less Tolerated. You Shut-up & Pitch is becoming more of a Common Empathy with all these Stoopid Bats ! ! ! Peace-out, Jeff White #7 Arizona Elite |
| April 9, 2013 JDub | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Travel Discounts Travel Discounts - Air Fare, Auto Rentals, and Hotels. AAA is $55 annually, compared to $16 annually for AARP. Near as I can tell, AAA & AARP are fairly equal. However, I have Auto Insurance which covers Auto Problems (i.e., Battery, Gas, Towing, Rental, etc.), so I'm not aware of any additional benefits to justify paying the EXTRA $39 for AAA! Input anyone? I typically use KAYAK as my main Search Engine for Travel, but I haven't used the Bidding Process such as Priceline. This sounds like the logical choice, as I too believe in the, "all they can say is NO" philosophy! I belong to Chase, so I guess I'll need to check into the Chase AARP as well ! ! ! Thank you all, Jeff White #7 Arizona Elite |

| Feb. 12, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: USSSA Senior Softball Rules for 2013 Additional Clarification: Here is the link to the SSUSA "Modification in Bat Standard." SSUSA BPF was increased to 1.21, but I believe Senior Bats still use the 1.20 Stamp . . . http://seniorsoftball.com/?messageboard&viewby_thread=51214&message_topic_id=bats |
| Feb. 12, 2013 JDub | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: USSSA Senior Softball Rules for 2013 Clarification/Correction: ASA uses the BBS Standard (98 MPH), which does meet the 1.20 BPF standard (100 MPH) used by the USSSA, NSA, ISF and other associations, including SSUSA . . . |
