JM, I agree with CB... bring your head up higher ever so slightly.


In regards to the pants thing - I'm always afraid that if I get them too long that they will droop in the back and drag on the dirt.

I think it depends on your shoes. I wear Tanel 360's. Has anyone else experimented or have the same problem?


PS - I told you to drop the coach thing on your screen name years ago! (all you will be losing is post count) You look great brother!

I'm a 32 inseam and my poly-wools are hemmed a little over 33". They probably look a tad bit long to some people, but I'd rather have them that way than have them half way up my shin guards like my Smitty pants that I have. I had those hemmed way too short and they were constantly getting stuck on the tops of my shoes.

Nice pics, JM. The only thing I've got for you appearance-wise is a suggestion to get yourself a wider belt. Your belt should be as wide as your belt loops will allow. Using the wider one will help prevent your ball bag(s) from bunching up like in the photos I left in below. Have a nice day!

I don't think it's the belt or the ball bag. It's the umpire. He's too damn skinny!

This is a HS game with FED rules correct? If so why is the catcher wearing that skull cap and mask?

His belt looks like it's a full 1-3/4" wide to me. It goes from the top of the loop to the bottom, and I don't think a wider belt would fit the loops.
