    Mask or No Mask

    It's not that it's out of date, rather they do not want the grading system to be used for the purpose of clearing anyone of their concussion in a particular time frame. Each person is different as to the way they heal fully from a concussion. You and I could be hit in the head exactly the same...

    Mask or No Mask

    A concussion if a form of "Traumatic Brain Injury". A concussion is the mildest form of TBI. Yes, all concussions are serious. In the original quoted post by Obbay it states "they’ll just get a nice lump or a mild concussion. Concussions are very serious, but masks offer little to no...

    Actually, there is such a thing as a "mild" concussion. Here are the three main grading systems for concussions:

    Make an error

    She is making a mistake......a big mistake! She is slowing down or stopping on a potential play on the ball. Bang that fact in her softball brain. Tell her that what she thinks is her area is much larger than she thinks it is.....at every position she plays.

    Because he's a republican with a boat load of money and doesn't want the democrats to know who he is for fear of them hating him and stealing his cool stuff.

    acceptable or not

    1. Playing TB since the age of 8 and starting varsity as a freshman means absolutely nothing. I know kids that started varsity as 7th graders and played TB forever and they never came close to playing in college. 2. Does your TB team play tournaments where college coaches are present? 3. TB...

    Mask or No Mask

    Correct. Not one person has said they had a problem with someone wearing a mask. There are some people on here that love to blow things out of proportion.

    RT, you like your guns and you probably have your CCW. Do you carry or own guns without a safety mechanism?

    Your top MI's do not wear field masks in 16u, 18u, and college.

    Mask or No Mask

    Someone was saying that they never heard of a safety switch. All I was doing was explaining that a "safety switch" is the same as a "safety". I have a few handguns and about 1/3 of them have some sort of safety mechanism.

    what seems to be a good chest protector that absorbs falballs.

    With the Wilson ProMotion gear being phased out, I suggest the All-Star Vela chest protector.

    Totally agree. Shoemaker got hit in the side of the head and a fielding mask would not have prevented this injury.

    Why Jan. 1st Cut off date?

    LOL About 30 years ago, I played a prank on the department secretary on April Fool's Day. I left her a message that Myra Maines called for her and gave her the number of a funeral home. Hello. T.P. White and Sons Yes. May I speak with Myra Maines please? Who? Myra Maines. I think you have...

    Where are you getting 90 feet? Home to first is 60 feet. 5.10.5 is 60 feet.

    Why Jan. 1st Cut off date?

    Because it's easy. The better question is: Why does school start in August/September?

    Why Jan. 1st Cut off date?

    Because the Romans said so. We use their calendar.

    I agree that the coach should not have yelled at your dd for not wearing something that is optional. It is not his place to tell her what you should do as her parent. It is not his business and should keep his opinion to himself. That being said, please understand that a ball to the face can...

    In defense of HS ball

    HS ball and TB ball are different animals, and a player gets different things out of both. My dd became a much better player AND person thanks to MS and HS ball. It taught her how to teach, advise, command, and how to earn respect from the older girls and become a leader. She has been thanked...
