    It’s good to know what you want, I guess.

    Maybe he, or she, was absent the day in First Grade when they learned the difference between horizontal and vertical? Oh, and absent the other days in school when horizontal and vertical were used.

    It's horribly written but that isn't what you wanted comments on, no? Being an assistant on one of the best organizations in the country does not necessarily mean much sometimes. We have one of those organizations in my area. Some of the coaches are no great shakes.

    Daughter is an "International " player 🇮🇱

    My 14 year old was selected for the 16U Team Israel team for one of their summer tournaments. She's happy and excited she was selected and I am very proud of her.

    Rawlings glove question

    Just go to the local Porsche, Maserati, etc dealership. Now, you'll have to walk onto the lot. It will give you more time. If you drive on, the sales people will see you easier and be running out the door to you faster. If you walk on, you'll maybe have a good 2 minutes to take glove photos...

    Rawlings glove question

    It's become popular with the neck beard, hipster types.

    Glove help - College outfielder

    I may be late but try a claim in your homeowners insurance for the stolen equipment. Many policies will give you coverage on possessions stolen "away from the premises."

    Nike Alpha Hurache Elite 3 Versus 4 Turf Shoes

    Hello friends! My daughter, 13 will turn 14 in May, needs new turf shoes. She's been wearing Ringors but now insists she wants Nikes. Won't consider NB or Mizuno or Ringors again and Dad (me) doesn't know his butt from a hole in the ground 😑. Fine. Nike turf shoes it is, but does anyone...

    Bat advice

    From Scareface. 😁 That said, I'm sure many others have said it as well.

    That was Elvira Hancock but yeah, the idea is the same. 😁

    List of Nursing Friendly Softball College Programs

    Not sure if it has been mentioned but Wilkes University (D-3) in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania has 6 nursing majors on the team for this season. They also have a number of pharmacy majors as well as neuroscience and biology.

    Tryout season doesn’t always make sense

    Go where you (your daughter) is valued and appreciated and not just tolerated.

    Marucci releasing a new line?

    I guess that is where preferences come into play. I know a couple of girls, one is DD and one is not, who love the Meta and don't like one thing about the ghosts they've used to hit.

    self-depreciating talk in the dugout / poor body language

    I'm late but just reading this and you are right, obviously, this is a thing. DD had a teammate a few years ago who never, ever sat. Long story but she played every inning of every game. Her older sister apparently did not. I know this because one game I heard their mom telling older sister...

    Colleges/Universities with high academic standards (engineering)

    I'm not trying to be rude but why are you asking us to do your research for you? I'm certain you could do an internet search for top ranked whatever engineering program. From there you can determine which schools have softball programs (I did just this for one of the majors. Many/most do.)...

    Delaying play to run clock time off

    Maybe same but not quite the same. This situation is at least similar. I can only assume the situations I am about to describe are coach sanctioned time wasting. 12U open tournament against a team we'd never played before. After every, every, out in the infield 3B and SS would run to the...

    Leaving National Teams

    Retaining Players and How many Tryouts are too many

    I'm not an expert but I've been around enough to be dangerous. At 12U, it is still about learning and development. Will the new team give your daughter a chance to learn and develop at a position she has interest in playing? Or, are they a you are a 3B, you are an OF and you don't play or...

    Why aren't softballs roughed up like baseballs

    The L.A. River, with the mud taken from Browns Canyon Wash.

    Crimson Tide leaking

    I'm obviously not informed enough to judge him. It was all generalization from what I know. Besides the typical get up and start drinking as a student before games until well into the night my best experience was Alabama v Ole Miss in Oxford. It was AWESOME. I stepped on Payton Manning's...
