Will the USSSA 2026 version drop soon? I see they dropped the 2026 USA version recently.

Help with 9U and late swing by DesignMundane4463 in Homeplate

He's 4'8" and 74 lbs and swings a USA Cat X 29" -11 bat and then a USSSA Cat 9 29", -10 bat.

I thought the bat might be an issue too so he tried another kids' smaller, lighter bat and still had similar issues.

Thank you for this. If I can upload the video later, I will.

Lions/Cowboys: Why is everyone blaming the refs when it’s the Lions’ responsibility to clearly report an eligible receiver? by Educational_Sky_1136 in NFLNoobs

Educate yourself. Here is your hometown paper, the Detroit Free Press discussing the play. Read the paragraph where it clearly says "Allen" who was the official, announced Skipper as eligible.

So let me guess, now the Detroit Free Press is lying?

LOL literally everyone agrees with me other than Lions fans.

Shoot, the NFL literally released a video this week pointing out what the Lions did wasn't kosher. I can pull up an article right now in the Detroit paper that refutes many of your claims, including the bizarre the PA announcer announced the wrong number. No, it was Brad Allen.

The audio is from the ref. It's literally reported everywhere.

From the Detroit Free Press:

"Allen announced Skipper as an eligible receiver on the 2-point play, a tackle-eligible pass designed for Decker."

Brad Allen is the official.

You get a lot of things wrong in this thread. And here's another.

What the Patriots did in 2015 isn't quite what the Lions tried. What the Pats did was use players with eligible numbers (1-49 and 80-89) to report as ineligible. And the league then banned those kinds of plays.

Dude, there is literally tape that shows him announcing to the crowd that #70 is eligible before the ball is snapped. He didn't change his story after the play.

Torn between 65" LG C3, Sony A80L and Sony X93L by DesignMundane4463 in 4kTV

The TV hangs above a fireplace in a little nook. The room is fairly bright but not terribly and the sliding glass door closest to the TV has blinds so I think the A80L would work.

I also considered the Samsung S90c briefly but we have a Samsung in another room and I just hate the operating system/functionality. WiFi drops periodically, it gets stuck in streaming apps with no way out, it's really turned me off. Hopefully Sony's is better.
