Make sure you join a beer league. Some of the other ones are too stringent, too many try hards. Playing in a beer league is more laid back, good banter, and a good way to meet new people. Last year was the first time I didn't play, I'm playing again this summer.

>>64690499
Little league pitching sucks. There was always one lunatic trying to windup like Hideo Nomo, one kid who always jumped when he pitched, one tall fat kid who could throw 75 but couldn't get one in the strike zone to save his life, and another kid who hit 6 batters in a row and his coach/dad just said "It's alright, Jay, just follow through! It's okay buddy! Just follow through."

>>64690548
>one tall fat kid who could throw 75 but couldn't get one in the strike zone to save his life

I never got that, but I was usually on teams with good kids and good coaches (thank fuck). But yeah, it is overrated.
>>
>>64690548
The best pitchers were the ones who just threw strikes and kept the defense involved. Those kids who racked up 10+ K's a game were ok but they always walked another 20 as well. And then your standing in the field bored as shit while runs keep getting walked in.

The kid was able to play down a year cause of "little league age" which let kids born in may play down a level, so essentially he was 13 playing with 11 and 12 year olds

The rules that exist now that didn't exist back then send the only message to current players that they should need. Nobody kept the greenies out of Hank Aaron's body and nobody's using him as a public excuse to use them now.

are you a current player? who are you to speak for them? do you honestly think a current player is going to give a shit if bonds and clemens are in the hall or not? do you think if they are allowed in they will suddenly think its ok to roid up? oh and even if they did, good luck not testing positive or shit getting leaked sooner or later.

and the story on roids has already been told. its bad. every player has heard it.

Almost cleared the the whole room one time.

It was the single greatest achievement of my baseball career

Trout is missing the personality. Regardless of stats, Griffey was able to become a national sports hero in part thanks to his jubilant personality.

Trout has as much personality as a fish. He will never have the fame that Griffey did at his peak.

Do you two idiots understand the difference between gambling (either actual in Rose's case or perceived in Joe's case) and roiding yourself to do better in baseball.

Yeah both suck but they aren't the same thing, and even Joe's and Pete's cases are different as Rose didn't have the financial difficulties being a star player that Rose did.

Bonds and Roger are the worst of the roiders because they had talent, and Bonds did it because he's an ego driven fucking shit who cried cause his daddy didn't get enough alleged respect and Roger was going to flame out.

If they don't get in, they don't get in and you cunts get to deal with it.

I mean honestly, cuckees fans are a hilarious in the toil they put themselves through to deny deny deny.

The Red Sox are arguably the best team in the AL East, and are obvious World Series contenders whether you're willing to believe so are not.

Given that our team will be healthy come opening day (something it WASN'T all of last year), I expect us to have a rather explosive April as is custom for us at the beginning of the season.

Be sure to stock up on alcohol my dear cuckees degenerate. It will be a long, enduring season for you as you witness the Sox reclaim what has been rightfully been there's for the prior decade.

It's What We Do.
