Go back 20 pages when we were talking about exit speeds.  You mentioned your "high level" experience plenty of times.   Almost like you were begging someone to ask.   Which is funny now that we know it's a **** DII walk-on back-up. 
Please quote.

I've only posted that picture to show the uniform.  I'm pretty sure Madonna enjoyed getting hit in the face with balls.

And that's 60 exit speed, not when it gets to you.

Yeah, now you're simply wrong.

A baseball has to have a 90 MPH exit speed to travel 300 ft.   A softball would HAVE to have a higher exit speed to travel the same distance.   Unless you think I'm playing on a 150 ft fence, you know you're wrong. 

How many ground balls travel 300 feet?
Does it matter for exit speed?   The ball hasn't touched the ground at that point. 
So you think ground balls come off the bat at the same speed as home runs?

Wow. Maybe you should take a breath and think about what you're arguing here.
Sure.  Do you think they don't?  Do you understand angles/elevation/etc?

Seriously.   Do you think a ball hit 8 ft high could ever clear a fence?   Do you think that it can't be hit just as hard, or harder, as one that does?

Wow is right.
I'll quote this one.  Because it's funny.

Do you have a better understanding of exit speeds now than you did 20 days ago?

Ground balls do not come off the bat at the same speed as home runs. There's MLB data that backs this up.
Do you have that data yet?

I'll take that as "oh, oops, you never said what I was accusing you of saying. My bad."

Regarding exit speeds, I looked at MLB average exit speeds for different types of batted balls instead of peak speeds. I was wrong. I have no problem admitting that.

You should take it as "I'm not digging thru 30 pages of BS to find it" because that's what it is.    I took a shot, it wasn't on that page, other pieces of your dumbassery were and I posted them.

So you're insisting that something exists but you can't find it?

Good job, biz.

What part of "I'm not digging thru 30 pages of BS to find it" confuses you?  

It's a case of "Not that important to me".    You know, how you claim this forum isn't important to you.   Except, for me, it's true.

"Hi, I'm mike. I insist that X exists but act insulted when asked to provide X. Then I claim it isn't important to me."

Fine, the point (that you were trying to make) isn't important to you.







O/U on how many times you bring it up from this point forward?

17

It's not. I understand that this doesn't matter. You, on the other hand, seem to think this forum is incredibly important.

I've given you a summary already. If you want specifics you'll need to tell me what you want to know.

This.

Digging thru 30 pages of bullshit isn't that important.  You rambled on about the "high level" baseball you played.  I finally asked.   You spunked yourself because you finally had the opportunity to tell the world about your ****** baseball "career" as a walk-on back-up at a **** DII school who batted .230.

You should be thanking me.

I said high level once, in the middle of a paragraph that I'm guessing 4 people read, me included.

That's 1. 16 more for a push. 
3/31/2014 5:02 PM
But do you have high-level survival instincts?

You've said it dozens of times over the last 18 months.     Because you'd said it so many times, with confidence, I thought you actually played at a "high level" not some community college as a walk-on back-up. 

So props for that.   You were convincing.

Nope. Said it once this thread and never before. I mentioned my adult team once before but never said anything about my playing ability.

That's 2.

A simple denial doesn't make it fact.    Dozens of times.  Enough to either A) convince me that you were a professional, or big-time college, ballplayer or B) not ask because you were dying to tell the story.    Wish I had asked earler.  Because life as a community college walk-on back-up being "high level" is funny.   You can't make that **** up.
