Is that challenge open to anyone?

clonefan65, come pitch for the club team since you have such great mechanics and since you can critique his mechanics from a bad picture

I am not going to say the guy isn't a decent player... That said, I have known a few people on the club baseball team. The level of talent is probably on par with a good class 2a/3a high school baseball team. Of course there are exceptions.

Wow... I would have bet all my credits that this was an old timers game of some sort. Odd picture. (And no, that isnt a crack on thier ability so Mr. Mav can save it)I didnt know there was a club team. At least there is baseball being played at ISU.

I don't think you'd want me. I'm as old as he looks.

He looks like a young Warren Spahn.

He looks like Droopy the dog. It would be fantastic if he spoke like droopy.

If your mechanics are anything like the kid in the picture then you should be alright... I would like to see him over that plant leg a little more though!

I will say this, those are the ugliest hats of all time. Looks like something from a mexican flea market.

Yep - only the best for the club teams

And it doesn't look like his right arm cleared his body on the rotation, and it looks like his arms a little too far ahead of the torso on the follow-through. Of course it's just one pitch. And maybe it's during warm ups. I'm not claiming to be an expert at pitching; I only know the basics. Enough to teach 9 and 10 year olds how to pitch. Had I known it was a player I wouldn't have made the comment. I'm not trying to be rude, but I honestly thought it was coach pitching batting practice or something.

Considering it's a club team they're lucky ISU even let them use an ISU logo. Trademark jerks being what they are or at least were.

They did? Funny - I don't see the logo anywhere on the uniform. I do know that they let the hockey team use the official logo, but I figure that's probably more because they're a good reflection on the university...
