I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

Maybe somebody publishes them in the "Classics on CD" series, with some famous actor doing the reading. You could listen while you sleep.

What is odd about the term Sierra Nevada Mountains?

There are so many ways to interpret that, I'm not sure what you mean exactly...

I use that location so that people know I'm not some flatlander ca city boy.

Okay, I'll bite, with apologizes that we are hijacking the thread. Could it be...

Sierra is "mountain range" in Italian and nevada is "snowy" in Spanish, so I guess we have Snowy Mountain Range Mountains.

Building on that, many will 'pluralize' it in the American way, calling them the Sierra Nevadas, which gives us Mountain Range Snowies.

I do not believe there is any abbreviated version of the rule books for any organization. You can probably purchase an ASA Rule Book from Amateur Softball Association of America (ASA).

Just ask any coach or player. They can probably tell you.

Sounds about right.... although we try not to use the "S" word in a sentence.

i already have a copy of the full rule book. and why ASA feels the need to charge ~$20 for its rules is beyond me, i found a pdf online.

what i was asking for is if anyone knew of any league websites that may have went through the rule book and wrote a cliffs notes version of just the SP appropriate rules.
