I should instead consider that someone is either lying about their location or is on vacation somewhere but yet, still going to a slow pitch softball game despite the apparent terrible weather they could possibly be having.

Ok, you are usually pretty bad with your posts and moderation, but this is actually funny.

Good luck and I hope this helps.

Miller lite is a fantastic domestic.

This isn't a personal attack, just a helpful comment. Slow pitch softball may be boring to you because you have more of a runners body. If you'd man up(read some of BR's and AZ's posts about lifting), you may be able to bulk up and develop more power in your swing. I can't personally tell you how boring it would be to not be good at such an easy sport, but I could imagine it may frustrate someone. Maybe you could be the guy who chases all my homeruns? Laps around the field could add up to a substantial distance. Maybe that's still more of a sprinters game.

Let's keep brainstorming and we'll find your niche.

Are you good because of who you compete against? I played co-ed softball for our work team and did fine. Made base every time I was at bat, possibly because I could run faster than most of the other players.
True I never did hit a home run but did not strike out once in the multiple games I played.

It was just my opinion- I think softball is boring. Enjoy your easy sport!

I play multiple levels of softball. Obviously, the more recreational leagues are far easier. I don't 'make' base every time throughout a season, but I'm not too bad. Your coed work softball team just screams high level of competition. If you're getting on-base because of speed, you're not playing anyone with a decent arm.

I've never struck out in slow pitch softball either. Close to 800 bats(only about 4 years worth of playing) and no strike outs. The ball is being thrown underhand...how do you miss?

I understand it was your opinion and I was just trying to help. I will enjoy my sport since I am no longer capable of competing at my primary position in baseball(catcher) due to blowing my knee out in college football. It's a nice recreational sport to spend some time with friends and meet new ones.

Kind of like running a marathon...but with more talking and better people.

I'm watching Inception and going to bed soon. I have to be a work at 7:00 to start slicing rat brains. I don't know if I should work out, play golf, or go to the pool when I get off at 4.

Sleep well, OC brother.

I vote work out for after work. Then beers.

Being so slow most likely contributed to the lack of talking or better people.

Keep working on it and you'll have a lot more better people and more talking!

Good luck.

How did the softball game go?

I don't see myself training much long distances. It doesn't interest me.

Softball went well. Went 4-6, 3 2bs, 3 RBIs, 3 runs. My last at bat was disappointing, but I'll be fine. The team was happy with me(I was just a sub) so I should get invited back.

Thanks for caring.
