The minimum posts required for sarcastic humor is 233 set forth in the HSBBW guidlines paragraph 12 line 22. Beemax is clearly over that.

That's arrogant of you given the remarks above. Is there a minimum post limit before one can post sarecastic humor? Or, is that limited to only you?

There is a difference between sarcastic humor and personal attacks. I'm not going to get into Marshall other than he actually said he had it all figured out.

If you want to talk more about Marshall there are many threads on BBF about him or you can go on the pitching forum here.

I didn't find your post sarcastic, sorry if it was meant to be.

If you have been reading the other posts in this thread you may have seen that I actually have talked about hitting on here.

the jab wasn't at Marshall....it was at CoachChris not posting here in some time. It was meant as humor.

I think we are all straightened out now. Let's talk hitting.

Try HG.

amazing,,, really it is.

Wogdoggy, I don't understand the point of this post and if the remark should suggest that HG has been a member for any length of time. So, to clarify, HG registered after this thread was started AND I made my membership search.

BeeMax, that was a nice post. I agree in principle. I think in practice those points I made earlier are going to happen. However...

amazing that the thread was taken off..no doubt

I have not removed any thread! If your reference is to the other site, take that up with them.

I thought this thread was about someone's visit to see Yeager.

We (my 9 year old) and I just got back last night from a great session. This was our third and it was dy-no-mite.

On our first two visits we focused a lot on getting the back leg loaded and pushing hard against the ground and blocking effectively with our front leg and also pushing. My boy still "spins" a bit because of all that bug squashing he was taught. But, we are working it out of him.

Yeager has some nice drills that emphasize (or more appropriately isolate) some specific body parts so that you feel what he is teaching. I like the emphasis on "feeling" what you are learning. It burns in better and the muscle memory takes a hold quicker.

I really like the way he emphasizes the body movements of a middle infielder into what he is teaching with hitting. We incorporate those body movements into our T work as well.

If all hitting instructors stopped teaching "squashing the bug" hitting a baseball would be a lot simpler. It has been said that is three times as difficult to un-learn something that it would have been to learn it right the first time.........I believe it.

Rajun Cajun,

Great stuff. Do you have any film from the session or a before/after of your son for us to look at? As far as I know, your son is the only young player that Yeager has worked with that anyone has bothered to post. I think it would be great to see the progress.

Thanks - JJA

Over at HittingIllustrated, HiddenGem and retkag speak of their respective visits with him.

What interested me so much with Rajun Cajun is that it is a youth player starting out. I would love to see how Yeager takes a typical beginning player and modifies their swings.

ANY bashing of Dr.Marshall will be readily acceptable here, so have at it!

“IMO if we can combine ideas and talk about them minus personal attacks, we can disagree while not degrading each other.” “I have not removed any thread!”

You or somebody else has removed most of the past Marshall threads and you definitely let some pretty bad stuff float through here about Marshall at will.

Be honest!

Any actions I take as a moderator are followed by a pm to that individual. Honest? That is a subject that many individuals could use a big does of.

Sounds fair in practice.

When I was Dr. Yeager he said a lot of the same things to me that he teaches his younger players. He has been at this a while and understands how to teach players. The cues and teachings he uses make a lot of sense to the baseball player.
