Are All Recreational Softball Players Douchebags?
Yesterday, I played in a benefit softball tournament for a motorcycle riding buddy of mine who got in a wreck and has been in a coma since June 30, to try to raise a few bucks for his girlfriend and her son with the bills etc. The guy had his liver removed, 1 lung, shattered pelvis, and 2 broken legs. He's only laying there, eyes open, sedated, while healing. finally responding to things...from a 'medical' condition but he's essentially in a coma with his eyes open at this point.

I have not swung a bat since 1994, and have not been involved in any sort of recreational sport since. The fee for this particular benefit was like $225 per team or something the equivalent of $$20/ish per person.

I was shocked and the number of douche bags that were there. There were 3....THREE mother ****ers there that played college baseball. They showed up completely decked out in full ****ing gear, talking shit to everyone.. Routinely cranking out 300'+ homers each time up to bat.......when their team is up by 15+ in the final innings when their opponents had only scored a single run. all but probably 2 teams were made up entirely of friends and family of the victim.....the the douche bags were on those two.

another douche bag example was three guys bitching and moaning about the $20 fee; and that they didn't like the color of their teams' t-shirts. One guy asked a general question of "this is bullshit...who's in charge of this bs"? I pointed to the the girlfriend of the victim and said "Over there. she's the g/f of the guy who's been in a ****ing coma for a month,, and who this tournament is for you ****ing douche bag".

I walked away; nothing escalated beyond that. and he didn't approach her.

I mean, JFC...you're playing a small little benefit with no ****ing 'prize' etc, to raise some bucks for her and her kid while he's trying to survive, and dudes roll out in full on beast mode. playing against 60 yrd old people on a team, and fattys like myself who were playing in jeans and motorcycle boots (having ridden down)

****ing pathetic. I've never seen such a large number of people in one gathering with so little perspective. Pathetic pathetic pathetic.

I was in an industrial league for softball this year. Essentially every baseball player who flaked out playing ball in community college participated. We lost every game by 25, but mainly because only a few of us had ever played any type of softball in our lives. The championship team was a bunch of rope tokers in their upper 20's. Most of them are aspiring cops who bragged about drinking in the parking lot prior to a game.

tl;dr, rec league softball is a magnet for douchebags.

Don't go painting all softball players with one brush now.
Tournaments are the time to play serious, regardless of type. A lot of us deck out in softball gear and 300' homers are not that difficult, I'm 5'9" 175# and can hit home runs if I want to. I'll concede it's douchy to take extra bases and jack home runs when up by double digits in division play but not come tourney time.

If those guys are such bad ass "athletes" why don't they join the mens senior baseball league and actually play you know...baseball?

On another note though, I'm glad to see the benefit tournament going to a good cause. Ours is coming up next weekend and it's for a softball player that OD'd on heroin during the regional qualifier tournament.

From what I remember, yes. At least one or two that stood out in every league. Sucked the fun right out of it.

I was in a league once with Tony Stewart. Dude just kept mowing down the 2nd basemen and shortstops.

I play and most of my team are older guys who could give a **** about wins and losses. We just go have a good time. When a team full of guys playing like its game 7 show up, we purposefully **** around and do shit like throw the ball over the fence and intentionally walk everyone. It's hilarious.

I play and have played for a long time. The team I am on is really damn good. But we aren't douchebags, we have just been playing together for 15 years and we have had some real buttholes in our league that do show up in full baseball gear.
