OK, last year, I tried to get a team together, and missed the deadline. some of you, I've emailed (about 10 minutes ago), to the emails you gave me last year. I believe the deadline to sign up is sometime in early January. I really wanna get teh ball rolling early this time, make sure we've got plenty of definites (at least 13), and get going. If you're interested, please PM me your EMAIL AND FULL NAME. I promise I won't spam.

hmmmm. im guessing this is a wood bat league. Im thinking about coaching a mens softball team. If I can come up with enough, Im totally interested in a third or second base position.

8/24/2009 7:30:07 PM

I'll play. I can only really play 2B with any degree of consistency anymore at baseball lengths.

PM sent.

8/24/2009 7:38:37 PM

well, I'll be more than willing to play short. unless there's someone better than me there.

i haven't played in a while, though.

8/24/2009 7:44:26 PM

I might be down by January.

Give me a outfield spot or a pine spot, I don't care...

8/24/2009 7:49:49 PM

damn, if i were in raleigh, id definitely be down.

8/24/2009 8:24:08 PM

This could be something I'm interested in. How many nights a week do you play?

I was a catcher in high school...been like 5 years since I caught a real game, but I've still got my gear haha.

8/24/2009 8:26:40 PM

as far as i know, all the games are on weekends. sometimes double-headers.

8/24/2009 8:45:48 PM

yes. i will pitch/play of/suck at hitting

8/24/2009 9:30:53 PM

bjcaudill can pitch. the moron should be pitching in the minors somewhere but he decided video games, alcohol, women and tww were more important a few years ago.

and i might be interested as well... basically a RHP and only a RHP.

how much money and how many nights a week

[Edited on August 24, 2009 at 10:08 PM. Reason : .]

8/24/2009 10:07:32 PM

yea, whats estimated money @ 13 players?

I'd be interested, played throughout HS: LHP, 1B, C, ROF

yes I have a LH catcher's mit, it's awesome, too bad we're a horrible catcher platform, the batter is always in our way, I doubt there are many lefties proportionally in the real world as the majors have going on

8/24/2009 10:40:18 PM

I might be able to get us another Pitcher...I'm sure he could throw 3-6 innings once a week.

8/25/2009 6:05:43 PM

if my arm heals this fall, i could possibly pitch in the spring

J4 is that you?

8/26/2009 12:41:52 AM

I'm down, but I can only play 1st anymore.

[Edited on August 26, 2009 at 10:21 AM. Reason : ]

8/26/2009 10:21:08 AM

I'd potentially be down.

I'd love to try to pitch again (been a lonnnng time). I'm definately a solid outfielder (fast, solid arm, good accuracy), could catch if needed (don't have my own equiptment though), and despise infield positions. Hitting probably needs a lot of work haha.


PM sent in the near future

8/26/2009 12:13:47 PM

let's have that PM. and yeah, if you guys know folks, especially pitchers and catchers, let em know.

btw, I'm awaiting a response from the league office about cost, etc, etc. will keep you guys posted, probably via email. be on the lookout.

8/26/2009 6:30:56 PM

Sorry about that. I was at work all day and posted that from a blackberry. Sending pm's on that is a PITA

8/26/2009 7:31:58 PM

bump.

8/27/2009 7:06:47 PM

my boss said he would play too. he's probably really really bad, but he used to catch, so he could be the bullpen catcher or somethin

so just in this thread it looks like:

OF: Mr Scrumples, TaterSalad, porcha, BJCaudill21
IF: Ragged, WillemJoel, NyM410, twolfpack3, tej434
P: porcha, BJCaudill21, jmpack15, BoobsR_gr8

and whatever bdmazur sent you and if tej knew somebody else... i'm sure some of them aren't very good (I bet Ragged fucking sucks ) but that's 11-13 right there..

8/27/2009 7:29:58 PM

im down

i pitched in high school and played outfield and some 3b(i can really play anywhere but catcher though)...

need to start throwing again and making sure the curve and knuckle curve still have the same bite.

[Edited on August 27, 2009 at 7:36 PM. Reason : g]

8/27/2009 7:35:50 PM

i'm corner infield

8/27/2009 7:36:47 PM

i have a buddy who played with me as well on the legion teams, he can play OF or IF as well...legit

8/27/2009 7:40:00 PM

I can catch too (no homo) but not for an entire game, my knees aren't in good shape these days. But I don't have any catcher equipment anyway.

8/27/2009 8:00:29 PM

(I was twice an All-State pitcher)



yeah, i'd like for at least 3 people to sign up who can catch. i know that's gonna be hell on folks.

and, counting 3 others, i have 17 people interested right now. i'd liek to have 18 definites, because i know several of us work a lot, and making every game will be difficult.

8/27/2009 8:08:15 PM

got some big info FINALLY from Mike Wilson, the "commissioner", if you will. will be emailing everyone very soon.

9/8/2009 4:17:31 PM

9/18/2009 9:16:44 PM

hahaha no. just been hella busy. email coming in the next couple weeks.

9/21/2009 4:42:45 PM

but i wants to play ball now

9/21/2009 5:08:13 PM

9/21/2009 10:36:43 PM

I've got my gear up here

9/21/2009 11:11:24 PM

^^^let me know when you go, i could use some batting practice

9/21/2009 11:38:22 PM

Just curious do you all hit bp at the cage with wood or aluminum bats.

9/23/2009 8:15:19 AM

I use wood. I've got 3 wooden bats.

9/23/2009 8:54:04 AM

would love to do this if I was in Raleigh, P/1B

9/23/2009 9:54:28 AM

hey, I emailed all you guys about 5 minutes ago.

Hopefully, you guys are ready to commit!

11/11/2009 10:43:48 AM

by my summation, out of the 17 people who initially expressed interest, only 3 now are interested.

I think I'll just try to join a team.

11/12/2009 3:47:22 PM

Well I'm ready for it. If you join a team or start a team. I'm still in. My BB is not receiving emails. Sorry I didn't respond.

11/12/2009 3:50:48 PM

yeah, i'd love to play.. but i just threw some numbers together and per player, without bats, balls, pants, jerseys, etc.. just for the field, umps, and fees it's like $300+/player. Which is ok, i guess... but that's also the low end estimate for a field... seems a little expensive, woulda thought they had their own fields for people to use. anyways, i'm still in if it happens, but if not... meh, whatever

11/13/2009 12:34:01 AM

yeah, even with you two in, that's 5 of us.

that'd be a lot of ground to cover

11/13/2009 8:51:43 AM

I'm still interested (I didn't respond), but that just seems like a lot of money to commit. What kind of sponsorship do you think can amore provide to offset the cost?

11/13/2009 9:55:43 AM

I can probably persuade them to cover a good bit--but I'm not even gonna broach it if I only have 6 people committed.

11/13/2009 10:22:59 AM

I'm still in interest wise, I just have to see if I have the money to spare

i'm also interested in managing

[Edited on November 13, 2009 at 10:54 AM. Reason : -]

11/13/2009 10:53:26 AM

not sure it's gonna happen, guys.

out of 18 people initially, only 6 have responded to emails, and only 3 are absolutely in. that's a lot of ground to cover.

i'm trying to see about joining a team...i'll let those who are still interested know asap.

11/21/2009 11:19:44 AM

i really want to play

11/21/2009 11:33:05 AM

When do games begin? If it's next semester I would be interested in playing. I used to play baseball a couple of years ago and can play 3rd and 1st pretty good. let me know
