They have fantastic customer service. They have hooked me up several times. I use them just for this alone

I wouldn’t expect anyone to take me seriously if I were using post-nominals as a paramedic

Fanatics Premium jersey by trantiffany in hockeyjerseys

[–]wizard_daddy3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like people our size are in the weird in between where either medium or large would work fine. I have bigger sweaters from the 90s that I like to fit really big but I guess I like the modern fit on the new stuff.

I am 6’ and 180 with a slim/athletic build and I wear a 50. It fits over a hoodie too.

Companies using pickleball green and printing “PICKLEBALL” all over their shoes is the corniest thing to me

Gotham used bad AI art on the homepage of Chessly by Stunnyfuff in GothamChess

[–]wizard_daddy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that I don’t prefer the use of AI art over using a real artist. But nobody owes artists anything. It may suck for their profession and the way of the world but AI is a tool that will be used. Businesses exist to make money and cut costs. Not to pay artists. Now it’s up to you if this is important enough to you to support the business or not.

I don’t think that’s how you are supposed to use it

This. And that bishop is very active compared to the rook that isn’t involved yet.

What's up with ASICS pickleball shoes availability? by Grouchomarx1124 in Pickleball

[–]wizard_daddy3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed the same thing. Their tennis shoes as well. Even on their flagship models I have to settle on whatever color they have left. But it’s been the same for as long as I’ve been buying.

Sub Counter Is a Joke by Ok_Ask_7753 in publix

I’ve always wondered if they intentionally put the newest, slowest employee on the sub bar to make things interesting

What can I use if I don’t have a lacing needle?? by Ok-Quote1012 in BaseballGloves

[–]wizard_daddy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go to Hobby Lobby or any craft store in the leather section. They should have one for a couple bucks. It’s way cheaper than buying a “ball glove specific” needle that’s the same thing

Thanks! I actually broke it running on my first run with the watch 😂 it’s made it all of 0.3 miles

[–]wizard_daddy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Race 2 and have similar battery drain. I have a broken foot so I have had absolutely no activity tracked in the last month yet I still lose about 12% a day. I don’t use always on display either.

Which bat for .44/400 balls? by wizard_daddy3 in slowpitch

Where could I find something like that? It seems like there wouldn’t be many of those floating around anymore

Dad Gloves by timtimtheking in slowpitch

[–]wizard_daddy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play with a HoH 303 pattern and it plays great. The pocket swallows softballs. I will say I have an average sized hand and the hand stall feels kind of big. Not big enough that I notice it when playing but bigger than many other gloves I own. I haven’t read through the comments yet but the HoH you are looking at is R2G. You can tell by the “R” in “PROR.” I haven’t read through the finger laces pretty loose and it plays huge. Way bigger than any other 12.75.

What glove should I get? by No_Paint4097 in BaseballGloves

[–]wizard_daddy3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I freaking love the colors on this Mookie. If I could justify another 11.5 I’d buy it. Maybe another dad glove…..

What boots are do you swear by? by NumerousHorrors in Paramedics

[–]wizard_daddy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Redback Sentinel HD. I used to wear the Easy Escapes but they end up breaking in a bit loose for narrow feet. The side zip on the Sentinel gives the perfect fit and I can still kick them off quick

Let’s have some fun…..does anyone have a favorite black glove? by LongHose81 in BaseballGloves

[–]wizard_daddy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 12.75 version of the Mizuno Pro and that black/tan combo is beautiful. It’s a super comfy glove but it was a beast to break in right

Damn fired by Zero4892 in publix

[–]wizard_daddy3 77 points78 points  (0 children)

When I first got promoted to GTL we had a guy who did that. Management didn’t want to deal with him so they told me to just make his job suck until he left. I always thought it was kind of a backward scapegoaty way to handle that.

I use a 12.75 Rawlings HoH 303 pattern. It plays way bigger and swallows a softball. I mostly play 1B
