  • SENIOR SOFTBALL SNIPPETS Vic Zoldy Implored Us to Have Fun
    MORE SENIOR SOFTBALL SNIPPETS Vic Zoldy implored us to have fun playing softball in this league. There is no better medicine in life than laughter. If we can’t laugh at ourselves playing softball as if we were still kids, then it isn’t fun. Here are some of our favorite lighter moments from the league’s history that makes us all laugh. 1. Senior Softball Snippet: The enraptured pitcher… Al Hessy’s reputation as a ladies man was legendary. Al always had his cell phone handy and was always talking to the ladies, even during the games. Focusing on softball doesn’t always avert senior moments. Al once took the mound but forgot to put on his pants. But what the hell, Al pitched anyway wearing only his long johns, complete with button-ups to cover up his butt. The game must go on. The league was co-ed at the time. 2. Senior Softball Snippet: Senior moment events even take place during batting practice. Ted Wiekowski had a classic one. Backing up trying to catch a popup near first base, Ted missed it and fell down. Ted was still on the ground with his butt facing home plate as the next ball was being pitched. Manny London put the next pitch square in the middle of Ted’s butt. Manny, of course, denies that Ted’s butt was the target he was aiming for and said he was just going with the pitch. Manny has never let Ted forget it, though. 3. Senior Softball Snippet: Angelo Malizia used to give career and romance advice to kids who played on his teams over the years.

  • Assumption of Risk in Sports
    Assumption of Risk in Sports Assumption of Risk In New York State, when a person chooses to engage in or attend a sport or recreational activity, that individual “consents to those commonly appreciated risks which are inherent in and arise out of the nature of the sport generally and flow from such participation.” Fenty v. Seven Meadows Farms, Inc., No. 2012-05234, Slip op. at 1 (2d Dept 2013). The Assumption of Risk doctrine has traditionally been invoked by baseball teams when defending themselves from liability for fan injuries during games. It has been referred to as the “Baseball Rule.” It is common practice for teams to include boilerplate exculpatory language on their tickets that fans assume the inherent dangers of the sport when attending a game. Many lawsuits by fans throughout the years have been unsuccessful because of this affirmative defense. Lately, however, this doctrine is starting to be challenged, especially in the modern context of baseball and foul balls. New stadium designs have brought fans closer to the action, thus increasing the danger of being struck by errant foul balls. The game itself has also changed with the greater physicality and strength of the athletes resulting in harder hit balls. A. Assuming Risk when Applied to Recreational Activities Court of Appeals Bukowski v Clarkson Univ., 19 N.Y.3d 353, 948 N.Y.S.2d 568 (2012). A baseball player brought an action against Clarkson University after being hit by a line drive during an indoor practice . The plaintiff was an experienced baseball player and understood the risks that the game posed, especially on a pitcher, with it being common occurrences that line drives can cause injuries to pitchers.

So far as I can learn hy careful inquiry, I am the only person living in Dayton whose fathei" was here the first year of its settlement ( 1796 ), and having known personally some of the original settlers,— Granny Thompson, M:r. and Mrs. George Newcom, William Van Cleve, Jerome Holt, and others,— it seemed good for me, in the centennial year of the first surveying party ( 1895 ), to undertake this work, reviving merm- ories of the heroic pioneers, the hardy men and women who braved the dangers of a new and unbroken wilderness. When possible, I have -endeavored to trace the history of each family down to the present day, not making mention of any whose connection With Dayton commenced after 1840.

  • A Narrative History of the Montgomery County Senior Softball League – 1999 to 2014
    A Narrative History of the Montgomery County Senior Softball League – 1999 to 2014 THOSE BOYS OF SUMMER Back in the 1970’s, a Chicago sports journalist once wrote a very successful book about America’s favorite pastime. His enduring title will forever define what they are. He called America’s ball players, Boys of Summer. It wasn’t all that long ago that these men of the Montgomery County Senior Softball League were just that. Boys. Most of them nowadays answer simply to one of the more endearing names for grandfather. They will all tell you just how quickly those carefree days of their youth have passed. They are grown up men now, who by circumstance and good fortune have come together again years later to share a love they all once had in common so very long ago. They have become ball players again. But probably more importantly, in their hearts and their minds they have all become boys again. Whether their love of this game is deeply rooted in pure baseball or in the variation of the game we know today as softball, the men who belong to this organization all agree about one thing. Since reaching the grand old age of sixty, it is one of the best things they have done with their lives. The senior softballers of this league wholeheartedly participate in one of the great success stories of senior living in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. In 2014, the league finished its sixteenth year of continuous existence. And this is its most remarkable history… 1 THAT INAUGURAL SEASON It was over the winter back in 1999 that a retired gentleman by the name of Vic Zoldy, who had recently relocated to the Lansdale, Pennsylvania area, sat around thinking about his many years of playing softball.
