However, many of these putzes will be some of the first to declare they only work the higher level (NFHS/NCAA) of games as if that is a badge of honor.
Then there are the braggarts that don't work SP because that is a "beer league" situation. Those folks should visit OKC during the Battle of the Borders and see how those players feel about that opinion.  |
For the record, I don't do slo-pitch (except very occasionally as a favor).
1) I have spent my time and energy learning fast pitch
2) I enjoy fast pitch
3) Slo Pitch is not fast pitch
(I don't do much baseball for the same reasons)
