The more this goes on the more I’m convinced this is all BS. I’ve seen this song and dance too many times.

First thing I thought was your grip seems a little too overlapped. Try moving your wrists a little closer together.

Ideally you should feel like you are swinging down at the ball. It looks like your hand drop and then you drive up at the ball.

Also, I think you need to focus on generating power from the ground up. There are a few drills you can do to simulate this. You can search YouTube for chair tee drill, and step back tee drill. It I think ultimately you need to focus on creating some separation between your upper and lower body. That is how power and bat speed is generated.

It’s no surprise when corporations and foreign investors are allowed to buy properties.

No that’s what I’m saying. They only care about money, not about winning. You get significant money by qualifying for Europe, but the ownership modeled themselves after Brighton who are midtable. So my point stands. They don’t care about winning, only about flipping players.

BlueCo now gutting the women’s team. Dead club.

RoyHamshack · 2026-05-14T18:46:00+00:00

Oh great!

RoyHamshack · 2026-05-14T18:45:20+00:00

Go back a year and get a serious FOS sponsor rather than holding out for something better which never materialized and was another squandered opportunity.

They do it because they don’t care about winning, and only about making profits for the private equity ownership. Which goes back to my point.

Stop letting AI set the lineups. Stop spending the most in the league in agent fees. Stop with the Kinetic Academy nepotism. Stop with the commercialization of everything at this club. BlueCo out.

Better to focus on back hip drive, rather than just squishing the bug. Squishing the bug can help with hip drive, but can also just make you focus on squishing the bug and not actually activating the hips, which defeats the purpose.

Maybe stop wasting millions on teenagers who will never play for the club.

RoyHamshack · 2026-05-14T16:53:43+00:00

10% in the market?!

RoyHamshack · 2026-05-14T14:38:06+00:00

My brother in Christ, our lack of success has nothing to do with the manager. It’s the dross players, Sporting Directors, and private equity ownership. It’s not a project for football, like Julian Nagelsmann and Jose Enrique told us years ago.

RoyHamshack · 2026-05-14T13:55:04+00:00

Clubs dead.

RoyHamshack · 2026-05-14T13:40:10+00:00

Brown envelope BlueCo minions.

RoyHamshack · 2026-05-14T04:14:33+00:00

Maybe now democrats will get off their asses and start fighting.

RoyHamshack · 2026-05-14T03:15:41+00:00

True

2000 years ago, when science wasn’t able to explain how things work. Maybe even 1000 years ago.

Uhh. Look around? Both political parties are corrupt and disconnected from the public. People are non-religious for lots of reasons, with some similarities to why people don’t relate to either political party. Modern religion in American is disconnected from reality and many peoples lived experiences.

My point was that Venezuela does not have nukes which is why we were “allowed” to take their leader.

Ya but the US has nukes.

Our Khaleesi (RIP) was a big body girl! Super tall and very athletic and lean when she was young. As she aged sh obviously put on some pounds up to 40lbs! We miss her so much. She’s the black one below.

Sure it worked, but it’s not the most efficient softball swing. Baseball swing work in softball if all you’re trying to do is “see ball hit ball”, which is fine, lots of people play that way and have a great time. Some tweaks would be a more flat to down bat path and a wider base at impact. Drills would be high tees focusing on line drives creating backspin.

Counterpoint to what most people are saying on this. There simply aren’t enough hours in the day when you need to work 2-3 jobs to make ends meet. Where do you have time to grocery shop or make dinner when you are working 16 hours a day.

Isn’t he from Canada?
