hi

> i am sick of good hitters giving false clues. most of them have no idea why they are productive. bonds says "loosening the hips" and what he means is "clearing the hips early". what a secret! oh my. crap.just because he is bonds people will go uh! ah!!!!!!!!

I am with You on that. I think they call it natural. Maybe its more of a feel that he can consistantly repeat. What amazes me is since he has made his change he rarely slumps. A slump to me is losing the feel that you once had, which is the order in which everything is in sync.
