I didn’t find much good there. It really seems like attaching a real name to softball posts would make the posts less wacky.
Other than the exaggerated experience and endless name dropping why is this stirring people up? I see a ton of these people on a popular racing forum and they get flamed until they go away. What makes this person different to get all this attention?
I had to unfollow that train wreck of a page.
I didn’t find much good there. It really seems like attaching a real name to softball posts would make the posts less wacky. There are anonymous posters here that I bet I could hang out with tomorrow in real life and get along famously and I have no idea who they are.
Midwest Fastpitch is almost as bad. I saw someone referred there from here recently and thought “oh yeah, super awesome.” Some real OILF stuff right there. (Throwback to long time posters.)
I started "following" it about 2 hours ago and can already see it for what it is...a s**t show. And there's enough of that already on FBI quit that FB page, too. I spent way too much time facepalming and rolling my eyes.
Thanks for the heads up. I will have to check it out. Must be entertaining.For those on this board who are also members of the Fastpitch Zone on Facebook, if you're following the Riseball thread on that group you may see some comments from the man, myth the legend from this board NUNTHIA who sometimes comes on here and posts, famously telling Boardmember how wrong he is with his pitching. To highlight his comments so far on Facebook:
He claims to have made over $1M in revenue teaching softball.
Claims to have been taught by deceased "Canadian Olympic pitcher Dave Pierce" despite the fact Men's softball has never been in the Olympics.
Also taught PERSONALLY by Eddie Feigner of the King and his Court, which means he went to a show and saw the pre-game "clinic" Eddie would sometimes put on for the fans.
Has told me my riseball has a lot of sidespin, despite the fact I've never met the man, never been in the same room with him, or even spoken to him on the phone. Let alone to say he's ever seen a game I've pitched in.
And he's now questioning my education, wanting to know if I was a college graduate. Although I'm not sure why that matters or has to do with anything. LOL
Those who aren't on that FB group are really missing a treat. There's a new guy on that group, a coach from Oklahoma, who seems to think he knows more about pitching and the pitches than just about everyone else. He is from Moore OK, and I'd never even heard of him until 2 weeks ago. At the very least, it's entertaining.

You're correct.I am confused, i thought Nunthia was an older 80 yo gentleman that had been around forever? Didn't think he was a young(er) guy.
Ok so I just stopped by to see how the old crowd is gettin along and saw this tread from Bill about Nunthia. I’ve educated Nunthia more then once on here, and had lots of fun doing it. I stopped because I didn’t want to be responsible for his blood pressure.
Now I’m gonna have to check out the Facebook page just for fun!
