Code Black video - Del Ballard
« on: November 26, 2016, 12:28:28 AM »
Just watched the Code Black video, but that's not the good part. The few side-bar comments from Del Ballard were worth more than the ball. Great stuff that to most of us are things we never get to hear...

Examples: (not verbatim yet, but they'll be in my notes within 24 hours)

"You know how asyms have this particular issue with high rev bowlers"
"Just put the MB a little past the axis and...."

There were 2-3 others, casual comments to him that to normal humans (such as myself) are priceless knowledge...

Loved it...

Best part of the Video is Del talking. I really didn't get much out of the novice they had throwing the ball.

Steve K a novice? I can't tell if you're being serious right now. A hack calling a 2 time eagle winner a novice? Yeah, you are definitely joking.

How can you read sarcasm, from a stranger, through text?

Mainzer is either sarcastic or blunt, but not stupid.

The guy swears by Ebonite, so I wasn't sure how serious he was.  ;D
