Play at K365 Tourney

Play at K365 Tourney

Postby Dematas » July 23rd, 2010, 10:04 am

So we are playing the situation in the first elim round after lunch, around 12pm or so. I believe there were zero outs, male on 1B. A female is up and she pops up to the striker and doesn't really run so hard out of the box. Striker lets it drop, he fires to Amy at second and she then fires to first to get the DP.
I was told the guys name is Jason Braswel, he starts yelling about what a bs play that is and that they lost respect for us and whatnot. I saw a lot of the players on the situation telling him that is was a good play and all that. A guy even came up to me and said it was a great play and he would have done the same and they just don't do it against their friends in their home games. I said, ok, this isn't an effing home game though and that was that.
I have said before that everyone is comfortable doing different things on the kickball field. I know a lot of things are legal and whatnot, but I have never and will never intentionally walk someone as a pitcher in kickball, that is just me though.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that after Jason was yelling, I was screaming and yelling at him as well. :angel:
Any thoughts?

I wouldn't listen to Braswell. He's a loudmouth. He's the guy that Dan almost folded up like a pretzel and sent to the ER in our semifinal game against The Situation.

As for the play, it's a smart play. He would do the very same thing if he was allowed to play Charger instead of playing behind the Charger (in the girl's position at 3B).

If it's legal and results in 2 outs, smart play.

Didn't KA pull off a triple play in FC 2007 against AA All stars or whatever their name was?

Jason is the only kickballer I have every had a problem with since I've been playing. He is the type of guy that argues every call, has no problem running the score up on teams, will get into it with his own players during the game, and will start stuff with anyone jsut to get a rise out of people.

I witnessed a WAAR game once where they were destroying a team and he kicked a long ball. He was coming into 2nd and an older lady player (probably late 40's) was just standing on 2nd base and not paying attention. Sure it was a dumb play on her part but Jason proceeds to yell "get off the base you stupid b*tch" as he's rounding into 2nd. Total douche.

That was a great play and would have been even better if he was one of the baserunners.

Sounds like a classy guy.

It can happen, I've seen it. Once, on an A-Team episode, after BA said "I pity the fool that can't act with some fucking manners when hiding behind a keyboard!"

That doesn't surprise me. I use to see him at Shorebreak after WAAR games and he was just an obnoxious drunk.
