bam

Having logos would just be one more thing the rats could bitch about. No thanks.

Give me the plate 1st game. After the 2d game I'm tired and don't want to have to screw around with my plate gear. Duh.

I was waiting for @MadMax to chime in

I'm taking a wild guess here... Orange County, California

Being hateful is not ok. But honestly, if you can't get out of your own way, someone should let you know. This guy is obviously not presenting himself for evaluation to us, so it would be unfair to hold him up to standards we would ordinarily expect, but I wouldn't want to weigh that much and run around an infield.

I've heard that story before ....supposedly from "Michigan" ...so, that sounds like an "umpiring old wives tale" Makes sense coming from michigan

With all due respect, because I wouldn't attempt it, too big.

Chest to the ball! But then the dumba$$ drills you in the forehead....

How many do you plan on wearing at once?

I where the tan with my cream or black shirts. Black for Pro blue, white and navy. Of course, I'm color blind, so that's a FWIW.

This is my front yard. There will be no baseball played in NE CT this coming week, either.

Shocking! Referee magazine has the wrong answer.

Your season consists of about 8 days. How bad can it be?

Did you check to see that the paint you used doesn't degrade the plastic on the plates? Would you allow hitters to play using re-painted helmets?

And even then...it's generally just varsity games. I can count on one hand the number of times I've been offered a locker room for jv/fresh/MS games. Unless you count a restroom. I don't. @MidAmUmp does, I guess

Why would you repaint the hard shell panels?

What is this "indoor" you speak of? Yeah, it's going to be interesting. I attended one a couple years ago, and the lighting was terrible. But I get to debut my new System 7 CP, which I'm terribly excited aboutn, and some new accessories. I hope the catchers can see

I just have to say that when I saw that @JaxRolo was the last comment in this thread, I said to myself "Self, that explains A LOT" Then I saw he was dogging @Majordave, and was like "hey, GREAT job". Hahahahahahaha....

Just got my first assignment - indoor college scrimmage this Saturday. Just having the gear on will make the 4 feet of snow on the ground more bearable.

4. Lose even more weight.....

How about you lose some weight? You sound like everyone's girlfriend who wants to know if their cp makes them look fat. If you're concerned about you're appearance, do something about it

Jesus! What did you do with them all? Or do I want to know?

The coaches want this rule until their next recruitment class of pitchers has better control.

Sometimes, taking it "in a better spot" is all the batter can do. I don't get this whole thing. What prompted the rule "clarifications"?

Big hands?
