Heads up, if any of you have kids that play baseball in a Dizzy Dean league, you're gonna have to buy new bats before spring ball. Effective Jan 1, 2018, ALL bats must bear the new USABat stamp on it to be legal for play. These bats were not even available to the retail market until 9/1/17, so any bat you had last year won't be legal, and you won't be able to "pull a Gomer" and find a good used Craigslist deal....Reckon I know what GomerJr is getting for Christmas.

I'm convinced this is nothing more than bat company lobbyists paying off leagues to change their rules to boost sales.

There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world:

1. All Politicians Are Liars
2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement
3. Taxation Is Theft
