Just got released to drive today and get back into the gym (well, treadmill & bike anyway)! Check out my new permanent body jewelry!! Doc said that given the mask I use (Force3 traditional), that the con-cushion would be overkill. After a quick conversation with @umpstu and rather lengthy one @MadMax, Max agreed this was overkill as well. THANKS GUYS!!

While I find stark contrast in your screen name, versus your intended location, I have to say that I don't see much scuba diving in your future. When I was in the service, one of the guys in my barracks was often wearing a "Ski-Iowa" t shirt.......depicted by a picture of pigs being towed behind a tractor on water skis. Best of luck. P.S. I think @humanbackstop19 is in Iowa It was similar to this, but said Iowa. (Sorry Kyle, it was the only one I found)

Ditto

don't get me wrong, I understand completely and am totally on board with NO PLAY. But that was the line that we were given last night.

We were informed last night that in regards to the game balls, PA is now a PLAY and report state. Apparently, NFHS overruled the state (?). 1- ask for game balls. 2- If not correct, Ask Visitors. 3- If none available, allow time (not to exceed 20 minutes) for the team to acquire game balls (local sporting good store?) 4- Use available balls and report infraction to chapter after the game

Mike, Glad to hear things are moving along. My physical terrorist feels that doc may release me to drive at Wednesday follow up. Yes, I'll be pressing my luck to see how long before he let's me get on the field.

Whatever happened to "It sounded like a strike:?!?!?

Enrico Palazzo?

a pitching replacement with someone who can throw to a bag?

Spoken like a true lawyer

Sounds like you have some catching experience.

Doubtful that you will see many (if any) testimonials anytime soon. I just downloaded it and it said it had been downloaded over 100 times. Well, you have to start somewhere.

This is just my opinion and thoughts that I am offering. These are my views and not any documented representation of a specific organization. I've been to many clinics/schools/training sessions over the years. While I work HS and have done some college level ball, my focus is/has been in volunteering for little league, here is how it was passed along to us. During training - Do as taught. i.e. When in Rome....... During high level tournament we are told - Do what got you there. You don't need to be focusing on changing your mechanic and proper execution of how you think they want it executed, when the focus should be on the game.

The dark side will never stop attempting to confuse you.......

why not just play under one rule set..........OBR ?!?!?

Is it just me or...... ...........if you have to publish a separate book to explain the new DH rule, wouldn't you think that maybe you have jacked that rule around a little too much?

STRIKE! STRIKE WILL ROBINSON !!

3 weeks delivery makes you happy?

@JSam21, don't feel alone. I called him out commending him for his plethora of knowledge and resources, and was all but chastised on here (by that person) for doing so. As far as I'm concerned at this point, he can stop expecting a Christmas card from me. (Yes, I had to re-write that last sentence several times .)

well, as ornery as I have been since I woke up last Thursday morning, SWMBO is dead set on asking him to put back whatever he fixed.

I'm back and my sarcasm has never been in better form!! Doc cut me open, drove his SUV inside, did a few laps, got out and did some work, only to get back into his SUV and spin the wheels on the way out. Well, that's what it felt like anyway. Doc was able to "put one disc back in place" and only needed to fuse two levels. I'm surprised (as is SWMBO (a nurse)) that as many people say how much pain they are in, I haven't had ANY pain since I woke up. Well, other than a sore throat from poking and prodding around in there. Who woulda thunk that they go in from the front, to work on your spine??? Anyway, blocked all of HS season, and will unblock to pick up turn backs/rain dates after I am cleared.

I can see it now................whoever gets beaten by the team(s) that should be disqualified from the state tournament, will now file legal injunctions that THEY should be allowed in, instead of the team that should be disqualified............ I kind of feel sorry for you NJ guys if this team is allowed in the state tournament. Like the article said, "the officials are pressured to take charge of the game". If this appeal overrules the officials, I HOPE that your attrition rate isn't what I could foresee it being. I applaud NJSIAA for standing behind them.......................for now. Hey LawDog @lawump, how IS that separation of church and state thing coming along?...................

Personally, I feel as though it's just a matter of (a certain degree) of respect that I was taught while growing up. Look a man in the eye. Let him know you are talking to HIM, or, listening to HIM. Kind of like teaching a millennial that a firm handshake says a great deal about a man.

Just ASK them
