| April 16, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: marking batter's box another great post from gary,again i"m enjoying the show. |
| April 3, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls my side to side and drops are good heck,i pitch from the back line,i can cover second real easy on ground balls,now the covering first well i"m horrible at that,i have played with two very good fielding guys at first,and they will tell you i'm not getting there. |
| April 3, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls no i dont work on my fielding other then grounders before a game and thats just to get loose,long toss for a throw from the pitchers mound to first?agility now i will think about that one since my 50 caliber teamates laugh at me when i get knocked off the mound and they make comments that i looked like a beached whale |
| April 3, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls you going to the brickyard this year |
| April 3, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls and again you avoid the question,how do you improve you defense,oh wait its like hitting cant be done at our old ages |
| April 3, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls no you dont remember the conversation i have always said defense is important in softball and yes that means senior softball.i play with coors light from 06 til 09 in those three years we won 3 worlds one isa,spa and ssusa and guess what we were the not a big homerun hitting team,we one with defense and timely hitting.and lots of beer drinking,quick funny storie,in 08 we were in the parking lot at papago in phoenix waiting to play in the championship game,we are sitting drinking some cold coors light,someone walks bye and says you guys are in the championship game and we say yup just warming up. |
| April 3, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls me and you already talked about this,how should i start practicing my defense,and i dont look like a goalie yet. lol |
| April 3, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls you are so narrow minded its unreal,still waiting of the ten people,oh wait a min. let me help you,who on here refuses to play softball if senior bats are not allowed. |
| April 3, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls name me 10 people on here who have said they would not play,and i guess i'm from a differant plant what does pride have to do with senior softball,other then proud of your team and other players who are still hitting the field and playing at our ages. this crap about not doing something when they are 50 that they could not do when they were 20 or 30 thats bs,the guys who hit them back then are hitting them now,yes once in a while the base hitter will still hit one,anyone ever think maybe all the years of batting practice maybe we are learing how to hit better. mad dog played in a kids tournment this weekend where the 52 275 was used on one field and 44 400 on the other,i was on the one with the 44 400,but i took a swing with the 275 didnt hit it solid but seem to fly ok,but the sound is horrible,reminds me of hitting a 16' ball lol |
| March 31, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls why do amateur boxers where headgear why do football players where helmets. its called safety,you pitch do you have any concerns about your safety when your pitching. |
| March 31, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Pitcher's Screen vs Rocket Bats/Balls gary the man has concerns about safety,so its his opinon that the net is the way to go,i"m not going to agree or disagree with him,if you dont like the whacky rules maybe you should try another sport,how about jumping in the lake and playing water polo. mad dog,i"m going on my sixth year of senior softball,i have been hit twice once at the isa worlds in st.louis hard hitter from florida nailed me in the left thigh,and in a senior league here i was hit on the side of my shin,i enjoy pitching and my reflexes are still pretty good but not as good as my first couple years of senior ball,and yes i do have some concerns when pitching to certain players and teams.and i catch most balls behind me,this is done on purpose its a fielding style i have developed. |
| Feb. 22, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: elligability I played on a 50 major plus in 09,was on a 50 major last year,george at ssusa said i had to play major or major plus if i play 55 this year. |
| Jan. 22, 2011 RIK56 | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Brickyard Toruney-Indianopolis midwest has it listed on the web site as may 6 thru may 8.can somebody from ssusa confirm the date. |
| Dec. 25, 2010 RIK56 | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Courtesy Runner Positive & Negative Views I dont think it was a shot at you larry,but maybe the whole "08" coors light infield all 1360 lbs of it lol. |
| Dec. 24, 2010 RIK56 | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Courtesy Runner Positive & Negative Views most teams use a faster runner for a slower player,but remember this you have to watch how much you use the faster guys that are playing a postion.they can pull something to.i"m going to be 55 also,but no 55 major teams in the saint louis area,so i"m staying with the 50 year olds. |
| Dec. 24, 2010 RIK56 | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Courtesy Runner Positive & Negative Views fat/lazy/slow guys.but i do play defense,and i will at times ask for a runner.now answer the question why do you play if you hate the rules.i could live with the last out also.gary are you playing tournment ball this year.if i remember i thought you said you played last year. |
| Dec. 24, 2010 RIK56 | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Courtesy Runner Positive & Negative Views thanks for insulting me gary or dirty or whatever your name is,i just have one question why do you play in ssusa or spa that allows the rules you hate so much,and for the record your r&d crap didnt help me at all this year. |
| Dec. 18, 2010 RIK56 | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Pitchers rubber This is very disturbing, pitchers not staying in the box i cant believe they would break that rule,i suppose you also throw flat fast balls and 18 foot pitchs. |
| Dec. 18, 2010 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: How did you get your start in softball? I forgot about my 16" days in the chicago burbs,played when i was 12 or 13,baseball coach used to not like us playing that.big heavy wood bats and no gloves lol. |
| Dec. 18, 2010 RIK56 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Our Game vs. Their Game Well said shane i agree 100 percent with you.The only rule i dont care for is homerun for an out.And no drinking in the parking lot. |
