Actually, the sexist comment was a poke at the statement above. Sarcasm does not translate into text very well.

No. I am very well aware of the origins of softball and baseball. Granted, my major was not sport history, I did a few papers in that area.

Smells too fishy? Troll? Not in about 15 years have I had fun doing that. This was an honest post about a tourney I worked this weekend. For those of you who endeavor in the beer swilling realm of adult slow pitch, you would be very surprised at the talent that can be found at the lower levels where it still resembles a sport instead of an outdoor keg party.

I will have to say that I was apprehensive about posting on here. But my better judgment lost. I have seen how the forum can be to “newbies”. I will keep lurking as I have done for the past year as there is useful information here from time to time.

Here is the link for the tourney information for anyone that’s interested.

Choose “tournament” then “10 & under softball”
I worked the Fri 6 (plate) & 8 o’clock games. Sat I worked the 9am, 3, 5, 7, and 9pm, plate for all. Sun I worked the 2 and 4 (plate)

Carry on…..
