Post subject:  Softball Team Openings?

I'm looking to join a softball team this summer - prefer to play in the nw or w burbs...evenings are probably ok, weekends ok for the most part. PM me if you have some openings - don't care if 16 or 12. Can play pretty much any position.

Now THAT would be amusing. I've got the team name already "Pantsless Internet Cretins"

I proposed it and it was shot down quicker than that plane over the Hudson...

Vince, I'll let you know if I need anyone. We play fastpitch...

Guys who play softball as adults are those who were never good enough to play baseball as a kid. Trying to re-live the youth they feel they were robbed of.

Not true at all. It is about staying young an active. If & when you stop playing...its hard to start it up again. I guess it depends what type of league you play in or whatever....but many of the teams I have played on over the years had some awesome athletes.

Wrong. Get the bell ready, I was an all ESCC catcher at Holy Cross back in the early 90's that had interest from D2/D3 schools to continue my playing career but went the academia route to Iowa.

I think that's a pretty dumb statement to make.

I'm not going to post my baseball credentials because I don't need to blubber on about my skillz - however, this statement kind of pissed me off. So do we golf on the weekends because we aren't good enough to play on the PGA? Do we play pickup basketball because we can't play in the NBA? Do we bowl with our kids because we can't be Earl Anthony?

That comment is as stupid as me saying that you sit on the internet with your pants around your ankles because you can't get a woman - actually, that comment may be more true than yours.

Idiot.

Anyone who plays amateur softball is a thug. I prefer the NBA because it's not filled with thugs.

Hey Darko, you don't exactly look like George Jefferson in that picture. You aren't who I thought you were.

I'll just go back to cracking jokes and making a mockery of myself now then.

I still have some more reading to do, but I'm sure you've accomplished the latter.
