Twin is no longer among us.
So you may or may not know.. Twin was banned from BBF some time ago by another moderator for his contentious tone. I allowed him back in an effort to give him another chance. I sent him several PM's outlining the conditions under which he can stay. After several warnings he chose to violate these
conditions. It got to a point that most of my time spent here was in answering PM's, editing and deleting messages - not something I want to be doing.
Some may feel I follow one camp or another when it comes to hitting. Those who do give me way to much credit.
I took the job here as moderator of 101 because of the tremendous value I feel BBF can bring to the baseball world, especially to coaches and young players. I hope this continues. Many of you who are teachers, scouts, players, gurus -my only advice to you is you do not need the approval of others to do what you do. All of you have brought tremendous value to the table and have done so in a civil manner. Many lurkers learn from this and I have receive numerous PM's to this effect. Whether we realize it or not we do have an affect on the game and the young players who play it.
Twin has his own site where he can discuss his theories in whatever manner he choses. To those of you who want to further discuss hitting with him I suggest you visit his site.
I will leave his posts here for now. I may edit some.
Any problems PM me. I will discuss what we can do to improve the site I will not discuss the decision.
Hope this helps,
Jake
