Also, Bellman is apparently retired, so I'm not sure how much he's adding at this point (come to ABQ and prove me wrong, Bellman!). I think I was the only one who replied yes to our captain's poll of players to go to ABQ. I've been looking for an excuse to take the Challenger on a road trip and a f...

I very badly pulled, if not tore, my left hamstring, which wasn't the previously hurt one. Did so in the final game against ballin, which we ended up losing 3-1. We had a long break between the semis and finals and got cold again.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who's had a triple play executed against their team. Still inexcusable... I kicked into one a few seasons back against a crappy team in nakad. Fast runner on second and girl on first. Beautiful low liner to shallow right in a nearly perfect spot. Runner on second t...

"A little chilly" means perfect kickball weather, but not quite optimal beach weather. Of course the impending rain storm that held off until Sunday Funday didn't help the beach part. Was probably nice enough tournament day for the beach if we didn't all have something else to do... FTR, I...

I would almost expect the opposite to be the case. Not much to do other than stay home and play on web. Hurricanes are ruining kickball banter.

Does look pretty sweet but no mention of the automatic capture mode that Zak needs. Could be part of the app though.

Not the tiniest thing in the world, but this has it with settable increments from 3 sec to 1 min.

Does the GoPro have this capability?

I get why they did that for circuit cup, because there is supposed to be an advantage at that tournament for lower seeds, and they tried to match the SOS distribution of the 5-team pools as best they could . Thank you, Bellman. You are finding a perspective where other people are finding a pillory....

There are plenty of wearable action video cameras that have an automatic still capture mode at a preset interval, granted they aren't as small as this. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing a time-lapse version of a drunken night in the life of Zak.

If one team had 6m/4f on defense while their opponent had 10m/4f on defense, is there anyone on here that could defend that as being even remotely fair? That's not apples to apples. That would be as if one team were getting 15 outs to work with during PP and the other team had 18. You're right. A b...

Can you explain why 6 team pools are better? I thought 6 team pools is where the problem was because we only play 4 games. 5 team pools seem pretty cut and dry. Play everyone once and move on This has been done several times but I'll give a quick rundown here. Any given pool, be it 5 or 6 teams, ha...

Circuit does not mandate that teams need to bat girls all in a row towards the bottom of your lineup. That decision is made independently by each team. If some teams want to reward current female player(s) by putting them higher or want to recruit a great female player by guaranteeing more playing ...

Haha, she must be pretty damn close to that.

It is sort of difficult to truck someone that's bigger than you, so this makes sense.

Power=Force x Velocity or something like that.

That's actually correct, though not really useful here.

I don't think many people read the actual rule proposal. If fouls are counted as strikes, you don't count fouls separately anymore. The rules stated to only count them as strikes for the first two strikes or if it was a foul tip, bunt, etc, similar to baseball. That implies that you can foul off unl...

I think this discussion should split into three separate ones.

i like it if you added +2 to guys in all scenarios That would still be much less than 3:1, which is what was originally suggested I believe. That's why I was so surprised you were so adamantly against it initially. I don't think it would affect most teams at all. 4 girls and 12 guys is 16 in the li...

What I just said assumes the same lineups for all 6 games.

Thats where me throwing out #s come in to play.When you look at the #s for the day at a tournament the girls probably spent more time on defense than any other guy and kicked just 3x less than the lead off for the day. 1 less than the #7 and more than males who kick after them. There is a less amou...

I'd rather see 2.5:1 than 3:1. If you chose to go with an odd amount of girls then how do you account for the 0.5 guy? The ratio would need to be a whole # to whole #. The ratio is a limit, not a strict target. If you have 5 girls, you can't have more than 12.5 guys. 13 is more than 12.5, so that's...

Move to 6-team pools so that the theoretical SOS is the same for EVERY team, and the seeding inaccuracies will be less noticeable. I really don't get how this hasn't been universally adopted yet. Nobody has earned anything at an open event, except for possibly free admission from the performance th...

BK, I like it, but I don't think it is nor should it be exclusive of the lineup limitations. It does level the playing field for girls kicking to some extent, but I doubt you'll see too many teams move their girls up significantly in the lineup due to those advantages. After all, guys typically stil...

I guess I didn't put my reasoning in here. A. Makes game more challenging. You most likely won't bring 3 chargers and 3 pitchers to every event so either you have more players rotating in at those spots from other positions, or they play through more innings and have to perform all day. B. Makes fi...

I definitely see both sides of the arguments and I'm OK with it not changing now, or not changing drastically all at once, but the real issue is why this type of rule would be implemented. I see a lot of people that are against it suggesting that the motivation is because the current system is unfai...

Why do an average of 3 tournaments instead of all tournaments attended with a minimum # required? Clearly you haven't read anything Kevin has said... Maybe I missed the point, but doing an average of 3 tournaments is a huge boost to teams that don't have consistent results. Taking this year as an e...

Whether you use all the tournaments a team attends or average there best 3, this will have absolutly ZERO impact on if a team travels or not. I disagree, though I don't think it will necessarily have a big impact. If standings are based on average of all events attended with a minimum weight of 3 e...

I agree with everything until the last point you made. I don't think the runner should be counted as first contact on a tag up.
