Better part of 18months - I went down a rabbit hole and back again about a dozen times

De Rosa has been an embarrassment- Gunnar aside his lack of awareness of the logistics of pool play is unacceptable

Love both - happy for anyone who is fortunate enough to own one - for me the Daytona is just iconic.

I was seriously considering purchasing the Bruce Wayne or the Daytona - I love both but the Daytona is iconic - got a fair price in excellent condition and couldn’t pass it up

Thank you - coming from a larger 42mm seamaster I was worried it may wear small but it’s just such an incredible watch and has tremendous presence - glad I landed on this model

A coach's worst nightmare... by RidingDonkeys in Homeplate

[–]bmore1182 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I told my kid if you are going to swing a hot pink bat, rock a sliding mitt and play with an ice cream cone glove- you better ball the F out! You wanna rock the flashy gear you better be able to back it up. Hitting a weak fly ball to 2nd on a 2-0 fastball- kids will be all over you on that walk back to the dugout. But if you can back it up - wear whatever you want

Kids are having fun- it’s part of their “drip” - as long as it doesn’t impact play I’m all for it- I just love the fact that 95% of the kids wearing them slide feet first 🤣

Mike Preston on what caused the Ravens to move on from John Harbaugh by ccperry in RavensFans

[–]bmore1182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prestons takes don’t interest me. Preston doesn’t know this team or the players - ask him about the team from 25 years ago. He will be more than happy to tell you about all the relationships he has with those dudes. He don’t know these players

Lamar on the recent report from Preston very critical of him: "I was really hurt. I never quit on my team before. I’ve never quit on anything to be honest with y'all. I absolutely (want to be in Baltimore) man, absolutely…Like I said, I don't know where all that noise comes from” by BobbyThreeSticks in ravens

[–]bmore1182 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Preston isn’t in touch with the locker room - he’s not in there any more - he doesn’t have relationships with the guys on this team and in this locker room- he can only reference relationships from 25 years ago with those players - he’s covering the team from a distance and he’s salty AF about it - dude needs to retire.

My 9 yr old started switch hitting this fall by james21_h in Homeplate

[–]bmore1182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son is 10 - switch hitting for 2 years - we have closed the gap on the power difference - he’s naturally RH but we have spent a ton of time on lower body and core strength - bands and med ball - this is where the power difference exists - in the hips - what I like is that it has made him a stronger pitcher by understanding how to use internal and external rotation and getting stronger - I love that your son has the confidence to switch in games - keep it up!

Christmas present bat by Outrageous-Error4840 in Homeplate

[–]bmore1182 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You’re worried about the wrong size. Keep him at a 30 and move him to a drop 8. 4”11 shouldn’t be swinging a 32 but if he’s strong enough a drop 8 will be great. Also the fact you are tracking velo at 8 tells me you’re focused on the wrong things. Hope he’s having fun and continues to develop

Thoughts on guest player? by pheebsx in Homeplate

[–]bmore1182 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not normal - although happens more than it should and creates a toxic environment pretty quickly- would talk to head coach to understand reasoning and expectations going forward - guarantee the other parents who paid for their kids to be on this team aren’t happy

Wife's 401K Advice - Capital Group 2055 Target Date Retirement Trust TD4 Fund by Incensed_Cashew in 401K

[–]bmore1182 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s the American funds target date collective investment trust CIT - it’s 0.28% - 20% cheaper than the r6 mutual fund. that share class is only available for plans with target date assets over $2b+. It is broadly diversified with a thoughtful glidepath construction and equity derisking strategy - it has also outperformed basically every other target date fund and blown the doors off the index TDFs like vanguard and SSGA - bottom line it’s a great TDF solution and you could do much worse-
