March 10, 2016 hitts | Topic: Bats Discussion: Your opinion on best Senior Bat I'm a Combat junkie I've swung the super dirty and like the short barrel, it has nice pop and is durable. I now prefer my Maxum over it. |
March 7, 2016 hitts | Topic: Bats Discussion: Your opinion on best Senior Bat I've been swinging the Sr. Combat Maxum for the past couple of weeks. This bat is smoke'n hot. It also has spin technology on a barrel which has a 15% expanded sweet spot. I like the thin handle. Miss hit still travel. Great deals at https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=601174036696255&id=100004109917722 |
April 27, 2015 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Qusetion Mark Why are you dragging this out let it go. I got a response from your friend on the SSUSA staff, inappropriate response, but it was RESPONDED to. Your continuing to rehash things raises questions. You played this weekend finished 5th still a top their team. Great job. Reno prediction, no longer going to play this game with you. |
April 22, 2015 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Qusetion Mark Didn't observe typo. lol No one questioned your love of the game or your ability. When you hit bombs like you do you don't have to run the bases and if you base hits you get a CR. I asked for a rule clarification on the info I had. When people start attacking the question it shows something funny is in play. Last year when I asked for clarification on moveing back down to AAA SSUSA informed me I could play on a AAA team if I was one of 2 higher ranked on the team, now its 3. Last year when I asked to be moved down due to injury and not being able to compete at the higher ranking. I was told I'd still have to wait 2 years to move down. Now they say a medical letter can get you a change. This just shows the inconsistencies in the rules and the implication of them & those providing the answer to players and coaches. BCA80 Talk about avg. run when You are discussing tie breakers AVERAGE runs means nothing when the W is posted. It just means there was good defense in the games & hitting was somewhat balanced. Fact remains in most cases stronger teams WIN SSUSA RESPONDED to my inquiry. THIS TREAD CAN BE DELETED. It's no longer required. |
April 3, 2015 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Qusetion Old school I'm not bias on this subject, remember I stated up front at one time or another I played with over half the war eagles on various teams. I harbor no Ill will towards the team or any of the player. My og question was about the number of major & major+ players allowed on a AAA Team. My perdiction as to the outcome of the Spring tourney was my observation of this team's playing ability prior to the event. No disrespect the participant, but I wasn't wrong as to the outcome. Good teams get moved up and this is a good team. |
April 3, 2015 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Qusetion Thank-You fastsam for your observation. After thinking about the response from ssusa. I decided to call and asked who was responding for them as to questions on the MB. Tiffany was very gracious in her efforts to assist me for a resolve and stated she'd get back to me. Still waiting. So let put some facts to the ssusa response. Last year I asked about a player reclassification and was told I had to wait 2 yrs. I was also told player were only allowed to play down 1 division Maj to AAA. a player going from m+ to AAA IS A DROP OF 2. ALSO the coach I played for last year was informed he could have only 2 Maj player on his AAA roster.I asked about a reclassification back to AAA I informed them of my shoulder separation separation. They mention nothing about having my Doctor send a note to assist in the change in status. (2)the individuals mentioned as sending medical info for status change were sent in last year, which is bull. I played tourneys with one and league the other, one had completed his surgery and played Maj all 2014 season, the other is still waiting to address his issues in the coming months. So nothing was on file a year ago. The War Eagles won the spring world in Mesquite as predicted. There is always talk about parity and the need to have teams play in the right division. I guess ssusa has someone turning a blind eye to certain concerns. |
March 23, 2015 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Qusetion It funny how a simple question results in backhand accusations. SSUSA Thank-You, for explaining the rule, but your kicker on the end wasn't needed. All teams & players have questionson rules if we don't ask how are we to gain a better understanding? This is why I don't spend a lot of time here. Again thanks for clarification. |
March 17, 2015 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Qusetion Is the rule for player rankings being enforced? How can the War Eagles be rated a a AAA 60 TEAM. They have 2 60 major + players & a major player. According to the rules your allowed to play down one division, which means plus can go to major & major can go down to AAA. You can have 2 majors on a AAA Team, but according to the rules this team should be a major ranked team. Don't undetstand why an acception is being made for this team. Just asking.i |

April 27, 2014 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Thank-You Dave & Tommy Playing in Vegas this weekend. There was an umpire doing games at BLD, whom i say as a former umpire displayed very unprofessional behavior in his game prior to & during my teams games. With 2 out a big man busted his butt getting down the line and clearly was past the bag. The umpire called him out. Everyone watching knew he was safe. When asked to seek help he smile and said he made the call. It didn't effect the outcome. Then we took the field. Our pitcher threw a pitch to a batter who was about 6'4", about a foot over his head. It was called illegal. He then voice to my team in the field "I don't like hight pitches". Forcing our pitcher to groove the ball. Then a few batters later. The batter ran up on a pitch and hit the ball and was clearly out of the box. When asked if he was going to call the out, he stated he wasn't going to make the call a batter out for being out of the box. His counterpart in converstion with me couldn't believe what he was doing. We won the game, however this needed to be address. I then spoke with Dave who was TD, who asked me to speak with the UIC Tommy. They both listened to my concerns, and the next day I was informed the issue was addressed. From my observations the umpire was no longer in the park working. I want it know that when a concern is presented SSUSA hears us and acts.. Thank-You Dave & Tommy. |

Jan. 13, 2014 hitts | Topic: Bats Discussion: Bat policy I think this is a great start in managing our hot bat with a design for player safety. It would also be productive the have a list of bats approved prior to this announcement as some say senior but don't have 1.21 rating. I know there are several model & brands that have come & gone, the clarity would eliminate any questions.jmo |

Oct. 9, 2013 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Gorilla Boy Dbax, I think the majority agree about the balls knuckling like crazy in Vegas. We played at Arroyo Grande & Dessert Breeze and the balls were dancing for everyone. The first session was very good it was also great having the equipment vendors at the different sites. Loved seeing the Combat label providing their swag for purchase. |
May 3, 2013 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: How can SSUSA possibly reclassify an established Major+ team Should have read: going to replace players that leave with. |
May 3, 2013 hitts | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: How can SSUSA possibly reclassify an established Major+ team I read through all of this. This is my take on the weekend. I played this weekend in some the games mentioned above & against FG. They hit their limit in HRs against us & had to back off due to not wanting walks for their over the fence shots. A couple landing across the parking lot (banging the ball). It is just puzzling how FG went 0-2 Friday. If you have an M+ team what kind of players are you going to replace placers that leave with? Duh!The same caliber(no brainer). So let's not talk about the replacement of players. Bottom line: They should have had to demonstrate they didn't belong in M+ before dropping down. FG's Friday’s effort had you guessing. Saturday answers to the question were verified. To be the bottom seed and roll like they did the rest of the tournament one can only can only think SB. Before it is stated no sour grapes or anything like that. They won it. Enjoy the win. |
