| April 19, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: To screen or not to screen... Joe, How Yous doin? Am old school and still think the pitcher is a defensive part of the game. Love to see the pitcher involved in double plays. I think screens should be used in batting practice but have a hard time seeing it at game time. I know, I have never played a game with a screen... so maybe I shouldn't comment, but it seems that a good singles hitter would hit that screen at will, never making an out. So, you've never met a coach that you could agree with anyway. Miss ya, Brother. |
| April 14, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Age 50: Looking to join a club in AZ Way to go guys. I love to see this. I manage a Major team here locally and have some very good players that would fit into your team well. Three in particular, two are excellent infielders and one outfielder. They are good teammates also. Contact me on my personal E-Mail (Towtime@cox.net)and I would be happy to give you their contact info. |
| March 30, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Spring Worlds Mesquite / St George Reg, We were so lucky to win 6 out of 7 coin tosses. Four of our games were decided by one run, not including the loss. I remember playing and losing to you guys a few times, although we all wanted to play you, it just didn't work out. We all want to play different competitive teams within our division. I think we have finally accomplished that, especially here in the West. You guys have a great mix and all I see is good things for you in the future. Thanks for the nice things you've said, my guys appreciate it and stay healthy or at least on this side of the dirt. John. |
| March 30, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Spring Worlds Mesquite / St George Sorry Dace, I ment Dave. It's really hard to type with sausages for fingers. |
| March 30, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Spring Worlds Mesquite / St George Dace Dowell & SSUSA staff... GREAT JOB. Canyon Complex in St George was excellent as Dave said and the drive from Mesquite wasn't that bad either. Spectactular country. In (7) games we had ONE late start. I don't know how you pull it off, but you are way underpaid. Congradulations to all the teams that showed in the Major 50 division. It is great to see such an evenly spread out division. Any team out of the 10 could have won it. Lots of fun. Fan Grabber Softball Club. |

| March 22, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Great time in Fremont Joe, Obviously went better than well, huh. How'd George hit? Way to go, you're making me proud. Talk to you soon & congrats. |
| March 11, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Congratulations, one and all... Great news. As far as George is concerned... who said he was a good friend of mine? George? Just kidding, he's said he's just going to lean on the fence and watch. Right. Stay healthy and keep the Stone unturned. Just heard that Demolition is not going to Mesquite... it's too bad, was looking forward to the compitition. Later. |
| March 11, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Congratulations, one and all... Joe, Just like you to have the thread next to "King & his Court". How's it going? You guys going to do any tournament ball? I'll be joining you guys sooner than later. Give me a call sometime. |

Seventeen innings of you guys and still wasn't enough. Lots of talent, plenty of potential and can't wait to see you guys once you've dialed it in. Sorry you didn't get to hit off of Mike B but I was preveiwing a new pitcher. Hope to see you soon and in good health. Maybe Mesquite, for sure Las Vegas. Lots of LAF s. |
| Feb. 11, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Einstine where are you? Lecak, You don't miss much do you? Where's your team staying? We need one room there. No, seriously! E-Mail me. And, we have some yoots, too. (youths) They might know your yoots. See you. |
| Feb. 10, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Einstine where are you? Hey Lecak... You comming over to Phoenix, right? Can't wait. More stuff to talk about. I think we should start a thread early to get results on the TOC from Dave. It will drive him nuts! Just kidding, seriously. |
| Feb. 10, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Einstine where are you? James LG... Soon. Can't say more yet. But, sooooon. Thanks for asking though. |
| Feb. 9, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Einstine where are you? Joe, As soon as I posted, the above message, my computer added the rest of the discussions... guess I gotta feed my mouse, sorry. Still good to see you post! Call me or I'll call you. John. |
| Feb. 9, 2010 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Einstine where are you? Joey, Joey, Joey... Miss ya, little brother ! This board is "Boring" without you. Me and the guys talked about you at practice on Sunday and was just wondering "How you doin". Got your squad up & going? Gonna see the results, when? Give me a call when you get a chance, got some more news too. Later. |
| Dec. 23, 2009 Johnny Hose | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: New Pitching Rule Repealed!! Cudos to the SSUSA Rules TEAM. You are on the right track ! Speaking for the players and sponsors I represent, thank you for giving us a little more of our game back. Your repeal of the "Middle Rule" just gave some dignity back to those pitchers that like to participate defensively. And, Happy Holidays to Terry, Fran, Dave and all of the SSUSA Staff. From all of us at Fan Grabber / AZ Lone Sharks. |
| Nov. 30, 2009 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: What do you think. Joe, Not just me, Burbank too. Had a great time. As far as the PA... it's too early and I try not to use this message board to promo it, as you can tell. I thank you for the support, but still need a feasability study with web site $ and other legalities like non profit corp and such. Should know by January. Talk wit ya soon. |
| Nov. 30, 2009 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: What do you think. Joe, Thanks for the promo, you're killin me. On your discussion, I would like to add my Radical thoughts. I am so against altered bats that I get really worked up about it. I think everyone should be held responsible for his/her actions... whereever. I hit a pitcher in league play from my batted ball into his eye orbit. It first hit his glove extended out above his head, then glanced to his face. Needless to say, he had major surgery the next day. Two weeks later, he called the sports office to find out what bat I had used. I think that he was OK in asking, but two weeks late. I think if any question of my using an altered bat was raised it should be at the time of the incident. I would love to see umpires remove any doubt by comfiscating both the BAT and the BALL at the time of the injury. This would place the burden of the injury and the costs accrued on that individual that chooses to alter the equipment, including the ball manufacturer that chooses to juice up the balls. Also, I have in my posession a formula that was acquired on the internet, anyone can get it. I had it in my mind that I was going to catch one of these bats being used. It is almsost impossible to do without destroying the bat. In fact, the lable manufacturer for some of the MAJOR bat companies run thousands more lables than will be sold to the bat companies, just for internet sales to altered bat producers and/or anyone else that want to change the name on their bat. In summation, You and I love the game, along with most of the people on this board. With healthy thoughts and discussions, the cheaters know we're on to them. Let it be known and just maybe we will steer someone into doing the right thing. Have a great holiday, ya all. |
| Nov. 27, 2009 Johnny Hose | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Softball Players Association Joe, Well my friend, looks like we have some responses to our question. I sure wish you didn't have that dirty shadow clouding up this positive idea. And Eddie, thanks for watching my backside.As far as I can see, the issue remains to get the players to commit, the rest will fall in place. Maybe, as I suggested, get the managers to help? I would like to hear there responses... like Lecak? Thanks for sticking your neck out. |
