Aug. 21, 2016 ffdonnie | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Why are there rules? C'mon deep, if you are going to call someone out on here then grow some stones and name names. Tired of this chicken shit whining and crying. You don't even have your name on here so what are you worried about? If it's this same guy we've heard about before, then let us know. |
April 26, 2016 ffdonnie | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: International Tie Breaker Umm staff, I'm going to defend the TD here. He was following the rule as written (yes too vague) as we had asked him to. Which, in my opinion, is what the TD should be doing. If he is out there making assumptions of what people were thinking or planning (or not planning)then he's asking for trouble. No, I do not believe that they were trying to get a rabbit in there. But a rule is a rule and the TD followed it as written. Hey, there are some wily old seniors out there, you never know. I had something similar happen to a team I played for when I played 40's and we were learning senior rules. |

Oct. 7, 2014 ffdonnie | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count Haha ok, you must be right. It's all me, I guess I am the only one who missed it. God has spoken, I am done. You do whatever you want any way. Sorry to waste everyone's time. |
Oct. 7, 2014 ffdonnie | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count Well staff, as Omar put it, facts are facts. I have had the same valid email since I've been playing, starting in the 40's. I have no explanation for the missed emails, sorry. And I'm not making this shit up. Maybe it's one of the reasons the return % of the survey was low? But since Pitcher22 asked: Yes for 1-1 count. |
Oct. 7, 2014 ffdonnie | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count Here we go again, Staff referencing the infamous survey that DID NOT go out to everyone. Staff may have sent it to everyone but not many got it. At least not many in N. Calif. I had asked several TEAMS (not people) at a NCSSA tourney a little while after it was supposed to have gone out, and two PEOPLE got it. To me, this survey is not valid. Would it have changed anything had it worked? I doubt it. Don. |

I've had a lot of fun each year, but I've noticed a slow decline in participation. Reasons I've heard is as BruceAZ stated above. And also it's too close to the Worlds for a lot of people. Good luck with any positive changes you make and thank you. Don. |
