First of all, the California league plays with a
fuzz all the time. I tried to send them a bunch of
corkballs for Christmas from Markwort's site, but you have
to be a Markwort vendor to order stuff directly from
them and none of their affiliated vendors in TX carry
corkball equipment, so I had to special order them.
Hopefully they'll get there before spring training
commences. <br><br>Second, in '97 I was living in Dutchtown
(at the intersection of two state streets) and SBAC
was a 1/4mi. jog away from home. I would regularly
risk my life, going down there to work out and punch
the body bag about once a week. That place rocks. It
is where many south side wrestlers and boxers train.
One really doesn't expect a quality gym of that sort
to be a few blocks from one of the worst ghettos in
town... and the lighting there is both poor and strange.
I really can't imagine playing corkball
there.<br><br>p.s. - if any of you St. Louis corkballers are vets
who like to swim or work out, the gym down there at
Jefferson Barracks is pretty sweet, too.
