A-Some of the guys who have taken what was once a recreational hobby into something serious. They shell out thousands a year in tourney and league fees, travel, bats, equpment, etc and all group together and sandbag to beat on unsuspecting guys who treat the game as a recreational hobby and walk the ballpark like they have celebrity status because they play on a tourney team with a .400 winning %
B-The guys who still see the game as a recreational hobby and fail to realize the game has expanded and grown. You have more options than 33 oz bomb bats and no longer use white .52 core balls for game play. These guys constantly come out every week and get beat on because they fail to update then complain about all the good teams and end up quitting.
C-The guys that are composite heroes. The ones that were minimally talented to average ball players, but with the new technology they get on the weights then hit a home run with a $300 bat and act like complete DB's because they can mash and hit bombs. They buy fancy pants and in their mind they are god's gift to softball, and in their minds are great, but in reality they're a marginal player.
In my mind its probably a mix but still group A seems to be the biggest issue and group C is the most annoying. Thoughts?
