| Aug. 12, 2009 einstein Men's 50 3112 posts | Balls getting dumber... The balls have been deteriorating for a couple of years now. Of this there is no doubt. The latest entry in this sad saga seems to be the disclaimer I saw in the Trump Stote balls in Utah that said, maximum 375 x 44 on them. Now, this means that none of balls can be more but it seems they can be a lot less. They could be 42 x 300 and still be qualified correctly by that label. I would ask Kevin to qualify but we already know what's going on. There's a movement to make our balls soft to satisfy some administrative and profit motives. I've heard now that SSUSA will not go for further deterioration of the balls but nothing seems to stop the Juggernaut that Kevin seems to be in the middle of. As I said before we won't tolerate or support lesser bat/ball combos period and we will boycott those companies and associations that show they don't have our best softball interests at heart. |
