I was never wise enough (especially in the physics department), but one equation always stuck out in my mind when it came to this idea.....

f=ma2 (squared)

And I was never really strong enough to use a heavier bat

I think I used a 31 inch 25 ounce bat.....or maybe 26 ounce.

Yes, swing speed is most important. As for the mass, usually the assumption is that it's only the mass around the barrel that matters, but when i see flex like that I begin to think we need to revisit the models.

i always used the lightest bat I could find, but I was a terrible hitter.

P.S. it's an impulsive force - so don't use F=MA^2

Torres gets a hit on that?

he massaged out a hit?

Touche.

Standing O for Cain!

Touche.

No.....moleste

Apparently the scoreboard just flashed that Tito lost money.

Enough French hockey boy!

Nice one. (gp is looking for a gif for this one as we speak)

Huff daddy:

Dammit gp you are a fucking gif artiste. Seriously. Can you make money doing this?

Huff daddy:

WTF?

That was disturbing and hilarious at the same time. Were those kids on Shrooms?

 

[msgkings322]

What do you guys (SFAnthem I know your answer) think of the theory that Tito and perhaps others are actually sock puppets ESPN fakes to add posts/traffic? He's so fucking crazy it might be true.

They're high on Jesus, actually.

Gotcha, so if I'm reading you correctly, it's more how the mass is distributed amongst the bat (i.e. - you're thinking that maybe the mass concentrated only toward the barrel might not be the right way to look at it).

You and me both. I wasn't horrible in average, but I wasn't good either. Had zero power. Only hit 2 home runs my entire baseball career (which wasn't much anyway). Used to be an ok pitcher, but I had a late growth spurt, so my pitching days ended rather quickly. My fastball was most people's changeups.

In this instance, would it just be f=ma then gp? Please excuse my ignorance.....

It's the best high.

I'm sure someone probably is. Producing content that helps drive page views and ups goggle rankings is a business. Don't think it's worth doing it though, unless you live in india.

oh man..this thread is awesomesauce..

I'm not too sure about the kids crying and the connection with Jesus...being that there's a velociraptor walking around in the room..

What a slide by Sandoval! Quick hands.

Dang guys, save some offense for the next 2 games
