I don't like softball much at all. Well at least I don't like fast pitch. Slow pitch is a great game, the ball is just right there to be hit, and playing slow pitch in your local rec league is a great way to keep playing pretty much the sport of baseball when your skills are no longer able to let you play baseball.

Then there is fast pitch. First off the look back rule has a good purpose but it gets very anoying. There is no scoring in the higher levels. What is up with the DP/Flex????? Why is it not just called the designated hitter like it should be? How can anyone put up with those chants that the players do? The balls are yellow. Some umpires don't wear protective gear. The double first base. Some teams wear shorts. How can you slide wearing shorts? The visor/hat sistuation makes the whole team look stupid. The coaches are on the field not in team uniform. There is no grass in the infield. There are no lead-offs (I understand that on a small field this would make a problem). There are so many reasons why baseball is a better sport than softball.
