You can earn sick money playing major softball. A guy that I played against back in NC ended playing for Team TPS......he made $102,000/year to travel around the country every weekend playing tournaments.

eh...there are very few guys who make that kind of money...wegman/hall/helmer/bumgardner are about it.


i watched about 4 innings of the game....nothing spectacular or anything different than watching a game here....it was nice to see they were using undoctored bats and the ball that alot of leagues will be going to next year.

I watched some of the game with Canada over the weekend. Rubber's right, it's nothing spectacular to watch.

no doubt.....that's exception more than the norm. but there were also guys that played B class that were getting $10K/year.....

my new derby stick....

i've decided to rename it the lolaunch after some of the bombs its been dropping...

[rueful]

i like how a good portion of this thread about trying to get a couple guys together to play softball turned into mallet and HMO seeing who has the longer stick

[RubberMallet]

your limp wrists could flick one out with that stick...no showboating here...

Rubber, I played in a tourny Saturday, got there at 10 played till about 10 got home around 12am...in bed at 1am then got a call from a buddy who has a team in a all night tourny, always wanted to play in one...we played from 2am to 10am....that's a lot of fun if you never have before, it's pretty crazy

[Hold My Own]

rueful both our sticks are 34 inches....you should be jealous

[RubberMallet]

i played in my first one pitch tourney this year....it was great....entire tourney in one saturday...32 teams. guaranteed 2 games...

you get one pitch....you swing at it, take a ball for a walk, or a strike for a k. games took like 20 minutes...

i'm too old for an all nighter.

[blwall1416]
