BatSpeed screener: I don't expect this to be posted. And I am not sure if the previous post will be deleted. Even though it is an obvious personal attack. Here's my response.

I was under the impression we were moving forward and going to only post about baseball or softball. That is why I have continued to post here. I would take your post as a personal shot hidden inside of a compliment. You have put some time and effort into your post. A simple "is this the same Zig" would have been sufficient.

I have reflected on some of my previous responses to attacks and have decided to separate myself emotionally from our findings. (In case you missed my previous apology and retraction for negative responses).

We can all learn from objective data obtained during a coaches' roundtable discussion about what we are teaching. Perhaps it was stated incorrectly or at an in appropriate time.
> >

Regardless of whether I post responses to hitting questions here or somewhere else, I know the oppposition is sitting there waiting for an opportunity to attack not our findings (because they are indisputable) but me personnally. I'll survive and the data we have found (not interpreted) will stand by itself. I understand there will be opposition and questions about what we have found. I fully expect it and am prepared to professionally defend it. But I don't have the time nor the patience to respond to simple attacks without merit. I guess the screener is allowing some "attacks" to get through. But I guess each of us reaps what we sow.

From what I can see, there are not "many of us" who are having a problem, just "one of you". Might I make a suggestion? For the handful of people who have a problem with Zig (and I don't), how about just sending emails directly to each other?
