I know I know, lame off topic post, but I'm moving back up to the bay from la la land (thank god) now that school will be over (may 9th) and need my fix of. . .well you see. . . its kind of. . . .well, one that needs some discretion you see. . .its. . .

softball - I need it - you have no idea. I'd love to pick up a few games per week, several nights a week, anywhere in the bay - will travel. If anyone knows of any, fastpitch would be killer, modified or full windmill - please feel free to email me at seney2008@lawnet.ucla.edu I'll play anywhere, I can handle any position, usually outfield and I'm pretty good, good arm, good stick, and I do all the little things.

I appreciate anyone looking out, I'll sub too if you just need someone for a game.

BTW - Baron, what are the chances since the weather is turning nice for the much anticipated, hotly s&*% talked contest with AN? I would gladly help set this up (since last time it seemed like a lot of work).

Quite frankly I’m still angry about that whole thing. I wish to divorce myself of the organizational parts completely. I’m so angry I’m not even inclined to play in the game, if it ever does occur.

"While conservatives tell you 'leave things alone and no one will lose,' and liberals tell you 'interfere a lot and no one will lose,' baseball says 'someone will lose.' Not only says it - but insists upon it! ... Democracy is lovely, but baseball's more mature." BVCE supports SF Dugout and Manny Burriss.

I know around here..

There are softball leagues that are organized, different levels basically, and everyone plays on two days a week. One of my coworkers is on a slowpitch team, and her husband is on a fastpitch team. I actually wanted to join something, preferably slowpitch because I can’t hit at all, but then realized that most of the people are in their early 30s to later. So decided to wait a few years maybe.

There’s really not a chance for someone in this age to get into something like that unless it’s pre-organized it seems.

The real question is ...

But in all honesty, I do not know much about softball pick up games. I would love to play though, so I’ll be keeping tabs on this post…

You can pick up games pretty much any night of the week at twin creeks. Teams end up short guys and they make an announcement over the intercom asking for players

P.S. Slowpitch
