  1. I think it is cute connection that was made between softball players and daters. However, it says that it is for people who are successful in the area of relationships. I would think that if it analogy were for people who were successful in the area of relationships then they probably would not be daters…they would be in a relationship. Other than def. a cute connection/correlation.

  2. This was a really cute comparison and after I read it I realized it was all true this has definately helped me put my mental game in a good position and I’m so happy to actually get my softball career started thank youuu

  3. Aw cute! When I first saw this on my email I was like dating and softball have nothing in common! It’s all clear now heehee :) Peace out! ?????????

  4. when i first saw this i thought to myself are people just making fun of softball players i wasnt to sure what to expect so i clicked on it and relized what it was. i like it and it veryy cute(: by.

  5. I like the analogy. However, I have a comment on waiting for the perfect “pitch.” I live in Florida and have lived in Miami. I have noted that umpires throughout the world ae not perfect. I have noted that folks from South America & Carribean area make it a point to agressively hit the ball—thats the name of the game. I wish I had taught my son & daughter to NOT to wait for the perfect pitch — when they’re young they should learn to hit anything – inside, outside, low, high. They will learn better “eye to hand” coordination if they can put the bat on anything reasonable. This philosphosy works for teams we have here in South Florida.
