No more of that goofy look on MY face, god willing.
That sounds like a good investment, Jeff. Can you still run while wearing one of those "girdles"?

Actually I've worn compression shorts for years....not a cup per-se, but at least it lifts and seperates. ...no problem to run in, but kind of a relief when you get home and take them off.

...the old style ones were REALLY awkward and uncomfortable...But Ive seen some newer ones that are still protective, but a more pliable and friendly material.

...some of the pitchers in our league even have started wearing a hockey helmet with a face-cage.

I know very little, well nothing actually, about equipment for a man's equipment. But pliable material sounds much more comfortable than plastic, which is what I thought protective gear was made out of. As the great Elaine once said "I don't know how you guys walk around with those things."

One handed is the worst. Period. If I can ever avoid a hand/finger injury, you bet I do. This hurt worse than having my shoulder repaired

I've been on the recieving end of runners quite a few times, and some shots I've taken should have broken or sprained something, well except for concussions, numerous ones, more than 10.
