| Nov. 25, 2022 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 11 Players For 65 Brackets I think it's a great rule. Anything to bring down the scores from a slugfest to some meaningful runs. |
| Nov. 24, 2022 stattad | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: 3b, Pitcher- Ventura County, CA 93003 He's looking for a 65+ team and is a very good line-drive hitter. He would be a good addition for any AA or AAA level team. I play with him in league. Maybe the 911 team or Godzilla? |
| March 5, 2022 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Scorekeeping Question Mason's Grandpa is the only one that got it right. It is a sacrifice fly foremost, because if the OF catches it, the run still scores. I don't believe there's an error, however, because the batter didn't reach safely (since the runner on first was forced at 2B). As for only hits and outs in softball, that's just lazy. Most players don't know what constitutes an error, so they just give him a hit. Doesn't help the manager any when everyone is hitting over .600! A batter has nothing to do with getting on base if the fielder makes an error. And I'm still waiting to see a batter score from 2nd on a walk, since some say it's as good as a hit! |
| Dec. 9, 2021 stattad | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Coin flips Well, I always advocated for a coin flip in the championship game (the first one), but I appreciate the detailed response Dave! |
| Dec. 9, 2021 stattad | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Coin flips A rule suggestion I made a few years ago gets defeated every year. The rule would be that if an undefeated team in a tournament loses the coin flip in the championship game, they automatically get the choice of home team in the IF game. The reasoning is that the undefeated team proved something ON THE FIELD and doesn't deserve to be the visitor on 2 straight coin flip losses. I'm not asking people to change their minds. It gets voted down every year. I just want the REASON. All I've heard is "that's how we've always done it." Well, we've always had 10 men on defense in the 65 division, and now that's changing! |

| Nov. 10, 2020 stattad | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Batting practice at Papago Park How about Rose Mofford. Can we use the soccer fields or other areas? |
| March 12, 2020 stattad | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Corona Virus (COVID-19) I just read an article. Here's part of it. Is SSUSA waiting for US to tell them we're not coming? The coronavirus is coming to you. It’s coming at an exponential speed: gradually, and then suddenly. It’s a matter of days. Maybe a week or two. When it does, your healthcare system will be overwhelmed. Your fellow citizens will be treated in the hallways. Exhausted healthcare workers will break down. Some will die. They will have to decide which patient gets the oxygen and which one dies. The only way to prevent this is social distancing today. Not tomorrow. Today. That means keeping as many people home as possible, starting now. |

| July 28, 2019 stattad | Topic: Teams looking for players Discussion: Need a player for Sacramento Any 75-year-olds available to play this week in Sacramento for the Western Nationals? A crop of injuries have reduced us to 11 for this one. It will be a tough go in that heat. A 70-year-old would have to be released from his team, so I am looking for a 75 player. |
