This has nothing to do with anything.
Were you at the first 9 man national? Did you see the pitching there? Do you know why Modified Fastpitch was started? I first played MODIFIED FASTPITCH in 1979, in a town that had 50+ teams, there weren't any Fastpitch pitchers pitching they all knew it was a level below them. Modified has been corrupted by the teams/guys that want to be THE MAN.
Of course this is just my opinion. --l--
sand bag, i think not. just because you think u know it all ,both gofish, justfish. i have seen gofish pitch and i wouldnt even call that modified anything with a arc is slow pitch as for just fish, grab a bat, and stop wining. i have played at ever level i started out at 10 man leagues and progressed to 9 man, then major ball, then fastpitch, the team i went to ph with plays 10 man, but wouldnt back down from the chance to smack platt or who ever is on the mound. and my motion hasnt changed, except for keeping the ball inside. and i have played in ever national{ASA} since 90 so i have seen all that there is for pitching

A good one was 2002 in N. Carolina. Great modified, the way the game was intended to be played. Hell they fought on the field, and then finished the game without a ejection. Sure wasen't any1 pissing about pitching. Man ****.

Maybe Atlanta 2003. Sorry can't remember the years correctly. Remember thats where the big boys were playing then. Midland, Michigan ruined the 9 man game around 2000. Dirty Basterds. The late to mid 2000's was still a great 9 man game.

anyone think about the possibility of pushing 9 man Nationals next year. If its in Michigan Im sure we can get some teams to play 9 man. It would need to be pushed.

They tried to push it and had 2 teams ask about it? both from MI and you need to stop the Midland ruined the game in 2000 BS. ASA wanted to have 2 divisons of 9-Man a Major and an A. A using bowling style and major being open.It just happened in MI not MI fault. ASA's fault

If 9 man was pushed it could work. But it would have to happen early and it would have to happen with someone giving updates and pushing it. We may agree to disagree on this one my friend.
Face it guys, two years everyone has been crying for 9 man or 10 man. The big guns all keep combining for years and it killed 9 man. All that is left is guys that pay for the best teams, and the best illegal bats. Then you look at 10 man. Jubb is one of the best 10 man teams in New England. Will they play 9 man, no. I have not seen them in angels tourney or mine in the last 2 years. It is what it is and it will not change.
That's only because of the weekend those tourneys fall on(#of players) and money. So Jeffrey haha we have been playing on the Granite State Bulldogs 9-man and a few of our other guys jump on other 9-man teams! But again our whole team plays 9-man regular season and some tourneys since our league in Keene,NH Division 1 is 9-man. There ya go bud now you know we all play 9-man hope your doing good Jeff and prolly see you in May? We play 10-man because of the our group of guys are all friends and we stay together. We used to play 9-man tourneys as well Chester, VT used to be great!!

I don't remember seeing Wiley in Minnesota in 2011, but I could be wrong...
nope , i have pitched in drifton 3 times with mixed reviews,and 3 10 man nationals 04,05 and my one game last year. it depended on the ump i had wether i got called. you know i got to watch alot of pitching out in huron, iwould have to say if you called it liked the fish twins would like, you would lose half of the teams there then what another 12 15 team national, you will never make everybody happy, one thing though both , i and kodiak will never shy away from any type competition, if your worried about speed get radar 
guns do away with rules and use a gun find a speed people are happy with ,your only bitching because steve throws hard, if he didnt we wouldnt be talking about this at all.

It sounds like some guys have sand in their vagina lol
Really, you thought you had to point that out to me, like I didn't know, duh. Some teams still play both, oh yeah. The team I play for is actually classified 10 man open, because we took second in a 10 man state tournament. The same team in 9 man is classified as A, because we won the 9 man B state tournament. We still play both but we do it with 10 man legal pitching. My team or I am definitely not afraid of any pitching you can throw at us.
What concerns me is, what is the Nat'l 10 Man tournament going to look like in 5 years. You think it will fall apart if they keep the pitching strict, correct. I believe just the opposite. I think if they open it up it will ruin the tournament. I still think the should promote the 9 man Nat'l Tournament more and a lot of this BS would not even happen.
