    Video: Little late night batting cage action

    Not too bad for for an old degen who has not hit a ball in probably 5-8 years. Mid speed baseball pitch at the cages with the old lady. Look at the bat action boys that is how you spend your time in the box . brought the GF out to carrabas drank some wine added some insulation to my gut and the hit the cages. Look out for me in the Majors next year making a comeback after those two bombs I hit.

    Thanks Mr. odom good advice, will get video with old lady next time. She had never been now she loves it probably be going bak regularly. Need some excercise I have fallen off the last 2 years. Was on JJ's top ten in shape posters or some shit 3 years ago at number 3-5 I believe. Time to focus before I cross the point of no return. Need to make time in my rigorous horse betting schedule.

    ITD my old lady knows all about SBR, not hiding anything why should I? Anyone dating a degen for 5 years knows about him through and through. The key is to find a woman who still loves you when you get out of shape and are a degen luckily I have. And as many can atest she is nothing to turn your nose up at either. Ready to come back though. Get in shape physically and kill the game. Financially the last 12 months have been great and are improving for me and I am not slowing down. I don't dedicate my entire life to the forum but still love the game and dedicate a fair share of my time and have love for it.


    Blondie, hope you had a great time and get back out there soon.

    your too for school brah. never said I was good right now but hope to get back there sometime soon. Bet you don't wear seat belt and do all types of other "rebelious" things too. I proved myself to everyone that matters to me a long time ago and hopefully you will one day too. Don't talk about it be about it my friend.

    Wow, 4 little ones? Hope to have 3-5 of my own one day and they will all learn team sports as well. Hope they are dedicated and have a passion for it. If they are the products of me and my current lady they should at least have the build to achieve should they want to. She is strong and 5'7- 5'9 Ihave broad shoulders and power at 5'11 to 6'1. My Brother is 6'2 and have direct family up to 6'4. Won't be super controlling but will def. direct them to sports and help them avoid making the same mistakes that I did. Good luk to you and yours

    Good Job Topper, looks like fun. Some solid contact there.

    I hit in the cage in the concourse at Comerica last year. Hit a few shots but took quite a few up on the hands too.

    Nice job Billy! how did you get that access? not easy to step in after a lot of time away but it is aways a good time. Motivates you too. Even harder when you go from a high level to just hanging on. Life is short live it to the max.

    No question. Whether I like it or not I will be going back. If you do it you might as welll do it to your top potential level. I'm a far way from being 21 but not too far to forget what it was like and fight back to that place.

    Sorry guy , stick to your day job, I was a coach for years in High school and senior leaques, your biggest flaw is your right hand.Try toget your left hand to be on the top when your swinging. Also keep your front shoulder straight as you stepping into the pitch, and don't open it as your swinging. Do these two things and you will be batting 4 th . lol good job.
