| March 25, 2014 FOFO | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Spring Worlds Mesquite I also know Rezults Reality from las Vegas won 60 AAA |
| March 25, 2014 FOFO | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Spring Worlds Mesquite I played LC for Double Play. No + for me Mike. I'm AAA at best. |
| March 24, 2014 FOFO | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Spring Worlds Mesquite I agree Ed. Well run tournament, fields in St. George are as good as any i have ever played on. Teams that skip this event don't know what they are missing. Great way to start the season. Bert Cochran |
| March 8, 2014 FOFO | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Moving to Fla.- wanna play ball Well there goes Senior softball in Las Vegas As we know it. Good Luck Vinny. BTW: i had no idea you were so versatile. |
| March 7, 2014 FOFO | Topic: Bats Discussion: Asa bats I actually have a 2003 27 oz warranty replacement model, W melted into end cap, still in the wrapper. I think it may be worth a couple bucks. |
| March 5, 2014 FOFO | Topic: Bats Discussion: Ulta2 with ASA stamp??? ASA stamp Ultra is the best bat ever made in my opinion. Im lucky that i have a few. I heard they no longer had the mold of something of the sort but i believe that they aren't interested in selling a bat that performs and lasts. They can make more money selling us two or three new bats a year. |
| Jan. 1, 2014 FOFO | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Neck Surgery I had that surgery about 10 years ago. I remember it being about two months or so. I know the first month i spent in a collar 24/7 and then another month or so before the i started taking BP and throwing. The collar was the worst part as you cant drive. |
| Dec. 10, 2013 FOFO | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: HR rule - why???? I would say let them be walks in Major Plus and DBO in all other divisions. Make the plus division more attarctie and the other divisions less attractive to guys that just want to hit bombs. |
| Oct. 18, 2013 FOFO | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: sick players at Sunset Park You also have to wonder about team members who would sit by and watch this type of behavior if in fact it happens. |
| Oct. 16, 2013 FOFO | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: sick players at Sunset Park I don't think Sunset Park has anything to do with providing the water coolers. I think that is LVSSA. The scarey part is hearing that guys soak their swaety towols and stick their feet in a water cooler they know other people are going to drink water from. WTH! That's just crazy. |
| Oct. 8, 2013 FOFO | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Las Vegas Fields and Umpires As far as umpires knowing the rules most the umpires don't officiate Senior ball very often it appears. It surprises me that umpires are not handed a rule sheet at the start of every day to reference should they need it. I know when I'm officiating a tournamemt in which standard rules for the organization I officiate aren't being used, our director provides us with a rules sheet. Comes in handy. Unfortunatley it doesn't help poor judgement, lack of hustle and bad mechanics. |

| Sept. 20, 2013 FOFO | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Desert Breeze Park Ball bounces pretty high if its coming down at a steep angle but not too bad. I like playing the outfield there. BP will be a mess but on Friday or early on the weekends the soccer fields are the best bet. |
| Sept. 20, 2013 FOFO | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Doc Romeo and Shadow Rock Doc Romeo has a couple little league fields on one end, then i believe 4 softball fields located more towards the middle and the a baseball field at the far end. |
| Sept. 19, 2013 FOFO | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Desert Breeze Park Played at Desert Breeze last night. The base paths are dirt but the rest of the infield and outfield is turf. Good shape and will be a good place to play. |
| Sept. 17, 2013 FOFO | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Bat Compression Testing Device Our NSA director in Nevada has had one for quite some time. As an umpire I'm required to confiscate the bat any time a defensive player is struck by a batted ball and has to leave the game as a result. He then uses his compression device to test the bat, and if it fails it is then sent to the manufacturer for final disposition. A bat does not have to be shaved to fail. Some will fail just because they are old. I believe Corky has one on his truck as well. |
| Sept. 9, 2013 FOFO | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Desert Breeze Park Yes Shane. Outfields are all artificial. Infields are dirt. I start league out there Wednesday so i should know more about the conditions after playing a couple games. |
| Sept. 9, 2013 FOFO | Topic: Teams looking for players Discussion: Hemet this weekend - need a 55+ player How did everyone finish up? |
| Aug. 31, 2013 FOFO | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Hotels in Vegas Closest decent hotel is probably the Holiday Inn Express. 4035 N Nellis Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89115.Probably 10 minutes from the park, however it is a ways from the bright lights of the strip. |
