| Oct. 24, 2011 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Knee replacement thoughts John: yes my full swing is back, you can start ding some rehab now, lift weights and ride a bike, to get the area around the knee stronger. I did tell the doctor I was going to play softball, that was ok with him, he told me no sliding or diving. The first doctor I had said no way cold I play again. My wife sent me to a sports doctor to said it was ok. Try to start riding a bike as soon as you can after replacement. Everyone is different some heal faster and some slower. Good Luck DJ |
| Oct. 21, 2011 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Knee replacement thoughts john: I had my left knee replaced last Nov 17th, I started playing in April on our thurs travel league, I had a runner from home plate and I caught, started running to first on my own about June, I think it was more like a fast trot, I still havent run full out, hitting started slow I could hit 300' before and my power took a while to come back, my leg felt like it was in the way when I took my swing. My power is back now. Go slow everyone is different. I think it takes about a year. I was bone on bone and that pain is gone, I really had a rough time walking before the replacement. Sorry about the log post and good luck with replacement DJ |

| April 27, 2011 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Reebock Legend and GBA Review Murray, the first 2-3 months were better for me also, the progress is very slow, I play on a thurs league 2 games, I catch the bending is very helpful for me. The 6 month mark will make a big difference for you, it was for me. Last week I could only get about 200 feet, today I hit one to the fence at 310' on 2 short hops, it is better than bone on bone Good luck to you also keep working, some day we will play again DJ |
| April 27, 2011 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Reebock Legend and GBA Review Murry: how is your knee comming along, I had mine done Nov 17 2010. I am taking batting pratice, started slow getting better every time out,I cant run yet but I can jog, I work my knee everyday, streaching, bike ridding it gets very stiff and some pain. I am at 6 months now have been told by a few friends who are playing that it will take a year to get to where I want to be, DJ |
| March 1, 2011 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: knee MurryW : thanks I looked up the site you gave me and it was very helpful. I only take advil for the pain maybe 1 to 2 times a day. When I did my knee I looked up all the things about the surgery so I knew what they were going to do to my knee, I should have looked more at the rehab and also what I could have done before to make it easier to get back. Thanks for the help, DJ |
| Feb. 25, 2011 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: knee I know we just had a discussion on total knee replacment, but I hope someone can help me with some answers. I had my knee done 3 months and 1 week ago, I have a lot of pain in the tendons and ligaments surrounding the knee no pain in the joint anymore. I exercise one time a day lots of bending and stretching I ride the bike in the moring 20 min and eveing 20 min the pain is a lot less after exercising. My doctor says the pain is normal. How long will it last? Thanks for any help you have to offer DJ |

| April 27, 2010 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tournament in Concord Mark well said, people stopped comming because there is only one field with a fence and the fields are back to back, and the ball was bad, I think they lost a few teams because of the balls this weekend, dj |
| April 26, 2010 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tournament in Concord Joe: the ball we used we use in antioch was the worst ball I have ever seen, we played in the 60 division with some good teams and good hitters,the best ball I saw hit on Sunday in the heat was about 150' game scores were all under 11. Good balls are a must.I would not play if we ever go to a ball like this. Hey did you break John's window? dj |
| March 18, 2010 dj | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: end caps for combats I had this problem and use marine glue, cap stayed on until bat broke, you will need to wait 7 days to use the bat, dj |
