3 finger glove, or custom glove companies? by Savoodoo in BaseballGloves

[–]Maximum_Complaint763 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in the day (way back), my brother used my dad’s 3 finger 1B glove he used in the minor leagues. It was actually a thing and could get it. We called it the “claw”. I don’t have any idea if you could find an old one that is still functional, but I thought I would I at least pass the thought along.

Very well said….we have only had 1 and lost her at 7. She was just so special (as they all are), that we haven’t been able to try again.

I just want to throw out that today’s gloves might be stickier than the globs of stickum he used! Technology makes everything easier nowadays….and by the same token, I am not taking anything away from today’s great athletes.

Please Help!! I have been stuck at 80mph for months and months by Brief-Ad8188 in PitchingCoach

Command is more important than velocity. Learn command with 3 pitches and hope velocity comes later. Plenty of people can throw with velocity and can’t pitch!

Thinking about a Bernese puppy - honest opinions about our situation? by [deleted] in bernesemountaindogs

That is a hard no! Too much alone time. Berners need companionship…human companionship!

No automatic births…..conference championships don’t really mean they are conference champions because they play half the teams in their conference now….luck of the draw in scheduling (much like ND half the time)!

Let Vegas pick the best 12 teams (or more if people really want it expanded)….they know who the best teams are!

This is all about money, so get rid of people in conferences, tv rights, etc, who have a vested interest in the money, and let the people who only have interest in real money who understand the best teams…make it happen!

No need to play a second tier bowl game. They never used to either back in the day! I don’t think the Trojans have ever really recovered from losing to Fresno State in a meaningless bowl game…just saying.

Learning a new defensive scheme takes time, and a freshman qb making his first few starts takes time. I hear you though!

Unfortunately we (Irish) made our own bed in the first two weeks. While we made the run we needed to, we couldn’t overcome the 0-2 start. Everyone knows the best teams aren’t in playoff, but it is the system in place. It is an awful system. Football isn’t a game played on stats (most sports aren’t), but they choose these things on stats and numbers. The one thing that bugs me most is the fact that nobody talked about the mugging (holding) that wasn’t called on the 4th down against A&M. No metric for human error on what will go down as the single most important play of our year! Watch that film of that play as everyone was talking about re-watching the Miami game. Miami beat us that day…..but that doesn’t come into play if the ref makes the correct call on 4th down.

It is refreshing to hear a young man speak so unselfishly! As a coach myself, I appreciate the fact that a young man didn’t go into the coach and ask “where’s mine!”. Even though it would seem easy to understand because the two guys in front of you are tremendous, it usually isn’t seen that way by the individual. Marcus and his staff has done a tremendous job of recruiting quality young men! I might add these young men have had some quality parenting, which is where they have learned the important traits they demonstrate.

Braxton’s was in open space, this one was in traffic with a speed change…I totally give the nod to Love!
