Your ability to comprehend humor is pathetic. Your ability to put the focus all on yourself, however, is quite amazing. Revisit post #185, and notice that I said "guys", which would include EVERY ONE of the people you say I didn't address. Again, I was making a light-hearted joke.

The only one whining is you. Lighten up, Francis.

Another thing....Bringing my DD into this is truly low-class, but that doesn't surprise me any more. Your character is evident.

Hey Francis ... lighten up ... I was just returning the humor :cool: . This time I've added a smiley face to help make it more obvious.

Merry Christmas back at you.

That was your attempt at humor?? Wow. How sad. Pathetic and sad.

EricF, I've been patient with your cheap shots and baloney. If it's a game you wish to continue playing, then your invitation is accepted.

On the other hand, if you wish to discuss hitting ... then that would be much preferred by me.

You steered this straight into "cheap shots and baloney" by taking my tongue-in-cheek comment addressed to "guys", making it about you, and taking a low-class personal shot at me and my DD. When you attack people, you shouldn't be surprised when they react. If you want people to stick to hitting, follow your own advice and stick to hitting. You have made it clear that you don't give a crap about anyone else's opinion on the matter, but some people do appreciate when threads stay somewhat on topic, especially when it's a sticky. Making a new thread to take the discussion on a new track is pretty damn easy.

I see, so you perceive that your cheap shots & baloney are tongue-in-cheek comments. That’s how you classify your numerous digressions from discussions on hitting.

I’m not buying your songs and dances EricF.

What seems to bother you is that it is truthful that some of the demonstrations you had your daughter perform would be at home in a thread like this. The fact that you would think different amazes me. In the process of learning people make mistakes, and despite the help folks have extended here, you made your fair share of such mistakes. You went through a bit more than the usual normal learning process … so relax … no one thinks ill of you because you experimented outside of certain boundaries. It simply allows you the opportunity to enjoy a bit of your own tongue-in-cheek.

Of course, we could always stick to discussions on hitting. You are the one that, again, brought the topic away from hitting. You have it within yourself to not continue to divert from the subject matter of hitting.

As for how “damn easy” it is to make a new thread …. Again, you are whining to the wrong person. Follow the exchange that took place. Complain to the folks that asked the questions, not to the person that answered the questions. Your selective whining continues to make me chuckle. You would think by now that you would understand how topics can drift like this on message boards. Either you are too dense to realize this, or your need to selectively whine is high.

I’m now receiving PMs asking for further input on hand loading. Apparently folks feel that there are certain folks on this thread that are polluting what you yourself classified as “a productive discussion”. Nice job there EricF. If that was your objective, then you succeeded.

Here’s to hoping that you can find your way back to having civil discussions on the topic of hitting.

Not here.
These GIFs do not demonstrate the top hand becoming loaded. True loading of the top hand wrist occurs just beyond the RVP connection point position in the swing.

FFS,
Is this the 'hand load' that you were referring to:

I said the question was rhetorical pudwhacker. Why do you keep insisting that I initiated a conversation? If you had not been stupid enough to answer it, and I use the term loosely because all you did was post a clip of Pujols demonstrating something completely different, then I doubt anyone else would have thought I was really asking a question and seeking an answer.

You always do that...you misconstrue something and then hold on to it in the face of overwhelming evidence, in this case that evidence is me stating my original intent...so you like the clip I posted and think it does not belong in the hall of shame. Fine....just come out and say it. Don't mess up another thread.

who does that?


oops I asked another question.

Pudwhacker? That is your response to someone answering one of your questions?

We are making progress. At least now you acknowledge that you asked the question. One small step at a time I suppose.

How about this as a response?

Oh thank you guru of hitting knowledge, I was really unclear on who thinks this is the feel of the swing. Now that you posted a clip of Pujols I see that this clip does not belong in the hall of shame and that I should follow the advice he gives in the video. thank you thank you thank you oh magnificent one.


get help dude...some people have issues....you have volumes.
