Which do you like better AL ball or NL ball?

admin — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 17:07:09 +0000

Personally, I like the NL better. It seems like in the NL, teams play more small ball (steals, sacrifices, bunts, etc) instead of in the AL where everyone tries to hit a homerun every time. I also like that the pitcher has to hit. Also, in the NL, theres a better balance of power with the teams. What do you all think

Anyone have any suggestions on core body training.?

admin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 21:49:27 +0000

I’m looking for bodyweight style exercises so I don’t have to by any equipment. I would like the workout to be geared towards baseball. I want to build a quicker bat and more velocity on my fastball. Those are done by developing strenght and quickness in the core trunk muscles especially in twisting motions. I’m just a little lost on how to do this and everything I look up on the internet always has a DVD, book or more I MUST buy to learn this stuff. Can anyone out there help?

Is it illegal in basketball to put your hand on the ground and pick it up again while holding the ball?

admin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 16:56:53 +0000

Well, I was playing basketball with a few buddies a few days ago, and one of them picked up their dribble and lost balance. Losing balance led him to lean forward and place his hand on the ground to prevent falling down. After getting his balance back he picked up his hand and stood up. Is this a travel?

Where can i find a wii balance board?

admin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 02:31:49 +0000

i want to get wii fit and a board and together they cost 0, so i think it might be cheaper to get the game and board separately, since the game cost by itself. Does anyone know what store sells the wii balance board by itself in charlotte north carolina, because i can’t find it anywhere.
