HELL YES TURTLE'S!!!!
to the guy calling about men's slow pitch softball but you're playing in a rec league all you get is a t-shirt if you win the league who cares if they're on time or not. correct league is not the place you take it serious if you want to take softball serious you go play tournaments on the weekends but it kind of seems like you're not good enough to play on a tournament team so just enjoy rec league and stop being a curmudgeon to everybody else that's just there to have a good time
