Can someone who knows baseball tell me why it is such a big deal that Dallas Braden pitched a perfect game? Sorry, I am a girl and I don't understand baseball very well. Not even sure what a perfect game would entail.

any help? (link)
It's only happened 19 times in the big leagues, and that is a very elite group. A perfect game is where a pitcher doesn't allow one hit, a walk, a hits batsmen (hit by pitch), or an error. In professional baseball where hitters are the best around and can't hit against someone that's why it is a big deal.

This year in baseball we have to use either a -3 bat or -5. I bought a bat, 34 inches 31 ounces so a -3. Tonight i was outside batting with brother and dad and i noticed this bat is heavy. I need to get used to it and i noticed my back, upper back, and left elbow are hurting from it. I am right handed btw. I use more upper body strength when i hit, that is what my coach tells me and i can tell since i don't hit the farthest but if i do get the ball in the sweet spot and every now and then use my legs for power i can hit far.

Since my season starts soon i need to get used to the bat so any exercises or tips will help.

thanks in advance :) i rate good too btw

well if you could find a 30 oz. and 33 in. that would be better its is much lighter. But if you are using the 31 oz. just swing hard because no matter how heavy it is you should be able to get it through the zone quick. And one last thing don't use just your upper body when you swing, you should always squash the bug when you bat, what that means is open your hips up before your bat comes through, it won't hurt as much. Hope all goes well!


Basically I have a boyfriend but I just want to be a great girlfriend. Purely for the fact that he's such a great guy and I want him to be happy.
Soo.. any tips on what guys like from girls ? (link)
They don't really want anything like a gift, if it's a great guy he should love anything you would give him like a great whole day together, or writing him some poem or song. But i guess it also depends on the age range. Hope all goes well!


I have a very good friend who is 15 like me. She's very pretty and she's very desperate for a boyfriend, problem is she can never keep one. I've given her all the advice I can. Next week she's planning to lose her virginity to a guy we both know. I know that he's playing her, he's said he doesn't want a gf. She's nervous and I've told her it's better if you've been in a relationship, are in love and know the guy well. How can I get her to changer her mind before she gets a reputation as a whore or gets pregnant? I know she'll regret it but I can't change her mind. (link)
Well you have to remind her that she is pretty and there's more to her than just "sex," also tell her that some guys don't look for sex, they want a good, caring, nice girl. I would chose personality over looks any day. If she still doesn't listen to you though just tell her to talk to this guy before they do it and ask him if this is for real and just keep questioning him. Hope all goes well!


I like a 18 yr. old guy. I'm 15. He smokes pot, and cigarettes, and drinks, but he's very considerate friendly and hardworking. We're okay friends. I promised myself once I'd never get involved with a druggie but I find it hard to believe in my mind that he's like the rest of the pot heads. He has plans for life like college and I really like him. I'm just worried that I'll get into bad habits with him. What should I do? (link)
Well you have to take a good look at his friends, because if you decide to get with this guy, he will start to bring you around them more often and they will more than likely pressure you into bad habits. Sometimes the good ones have a bad choice in friends and you can't help it, but that's only my view. Hope all goes well!


theirs this guy who was an old friend but at the age of 8 i left to a different school so i found him on myspace and he added me as a friend but never responds to my emails and i would like to know why (link)
Maybe get another friend of his to ask why he won't talk to you and kind of just go back and forth that way. I'm sorry but I'm not that kid and wouldn't know why. Hope all goes well!


Like I had dis problem with my girlfriend see I really don't like my girlfriends to drink cause who knows wats gonna happen when they get drunk :( and like my new girlfriend now we been going out 4 3months now and we love each other to death and like she used2 drink but she stopped becuz of me but she is gonna go to dis birthday party dis week 4 her cousin and I know it's gonna be alcohol there but she said she wasn't gonna drink any but her cousins might pressure her or she might just sneek and drink some and I can't go to da party so idk wat to do I'm just scared she might get drunk I told her already but she said she's not how do I know she will never tell :( (link)
Listen, calm down, you can have a little faith for your girlfriend and believe her. Girls hate it when guys don't believe them and it just makes it worse. If she really loves you then she won't drink. If you love her you can trust her. Hope all goes well!


ok so I am a preetty girl I know this because I get told so by my friends and family. Also some guys check me out but there is one huge problem! I never get asked out. I mean a guy can flirit with me and stuff but it stays at that it never goes past that. I try to be super nice and I am not stuck up or anything what is wrong with me? Ok so for example this guy has been fliritng with me for about 2 months by that all he does he hasn't asked me out or anything. I know you guys are gonna saythat asking out someone is hard but it is just that I never get asked out why? Please help me does this happen to anyone else or just me? (link)
No, it's not just you there are other girls like that. But since you are as pretty as people say then they are just intimidated by you because they think you are out of their league and don't have a shot. So it's kind of your job to ask them out because they don't want to get rejected. Hope all goes well!


okai so ever since i told this guy that i like him he doesnt talk to me anymore. he did the same with his ex after he broke up with her.
the thing is that we where really good friends before all that & he was actually leading me on as well?
but now he just doesnt talk to me anymore which makes me really depressed cause im still in love with him.
i tried talking to him again, i actually wrote him a text wishing him a nice weekend. and then he wrote back saying 'oh thanks to you too. how are you? what are you up to? we havent talked in a while... xo'
so then i wrote him back telling him what im up to & asking him how HE is etc and he wrote 'I'm good (...) we'll see eachother on monday! xo '
so yeah.. today i saw him & he didnt even look at me once. then later on i said hi & he said hi back but that was it.
& then he just stared at me when i was talking to his friend later on (hes also good friends with me) & then just walked by me again without looking at me again.
AND i also know that hes always stalking my myspace (dont ask how)
but he rejected me cause he still has feelings for his ex. i really dont understand this?!
what should i do now? (link)
Well it's not easy to do but you have to move on from this guy. You can still be friends but if you were friends before and he's acting like this now I wouldn't see him as much of a friend. Just do what he is doing to you except for the stalking part that's a little freaky just kind of ignore him. Hope all goes well!


Well he is actually my ex boyfriend. I wasn't aware that I was immature. But he says that I behave like I am 10 years old sometimes (not always). That's not why he left me. He just sees me as a friend now. I am 16 years old and have never been called immature :(. Any ideas? (link)
Your ex obviously doesn't accept you for who you really are someone that likes to have fun once and a while even if it is childish. I guarantee you're mature it's just your not ready to let go of being a kid yet its kool don't freak about it. Hope all goes well!


im going to this dance with my girlfriend but i cant dance at all and im nervous, what can i do? (link)
I can't dance either man, but chill the kind of music they play is just something you move to the beat with there is no particular dance for every song. If you know how to slow dance then your basically set. Just tell her if you nervous though and she'll help you out if she's your girlfriend she will care about you. Hope all goes well!

So, on with the story! On Halloween night, my friend threw this amazing party. It turned out we were going to watch a really scary movie. I don't do scary movies very well so I was a little bit nervous that I would scream my lungs out in front of everybody. Then a really nice thing happened. A guy that I'm friends with through my friend who threw the party came over to me. We've talked before and we see eachother at school all the time but we never really... "talked." He came over and said, "Don't worry, I don't really do scary movies either. If you want, we can hold on to eachother..." Of course I said yes and he was really sweet throughout the entire movie, and didn't make fun of me when I screamed like all the other kids did. At the end of the night when I had to leave he came up to me and hugged me really tight. The next day another friend came up to me and said "'D' doesn't hug anybody. What'd you do to him?" So life got really busy and he was in the school play and we really didn't have a lot of time to talk, nobody really did, until last night. Last night another one of our mutual friends had a birthday party. It was a bowling party and I suck at bowling. I pretty much gave up after one frame and went to talk to the other kids who didn't want to bowl. He followed me over there. We talked and talked and talked and all through the night. Every time I wasn't talking to him I'd catch him staring at me. Then he'd blush and turn away. The weird thig was, it was like talking to a male version of myself. We were so much alike it was uncanny. When it was time to go, my friend was giving us all in a ride home so we climbed into her van. It's massive but there were still about 13 of us crammed into it. With her being the driver, she decided who was going to sit where. It just so happened that the guy and I had to sit on the floor, facing eachother. He pulled out his iPod and I was like, "Oh no, don't disappear into your own little world!" and he goes, "Oh, haha, I wasn't. I was going to give you a bud." I have really weird shaped ears and earbuds never seem to fit right. I was struggling and he goes, "Here, let me put it in. I just got to get a little closer..." He got close and put the bud in my ear so it actually stayed. This is the funny part. The song he put on was a song from my favorite band. A highly obscure band that nobody I've ever talked to has ever heard of. It was great. We sang all the lyrics and had a great ride home. At the end he hugged me and went off.
Guys, do you think he likes me? I'm not sure if he was being friendly and nice or flirting with me. If you do think he likes me, how do you suppose I go about maybe asking him out?
Thanks so much, I really appreciate your answers!
(link)
I'm a guy and it's obvious he likes you. You both like the same bands, he hugs you and he never hugs anyone else, and you think of him as yourself, just as a guy though. To ask him out I would try and find a song put it on your phone or mp3 and tell him this is how i feel about you and see where it goes. Hope all goes well!


This is more of an opinion question I guess, but I have NEVER met a guy that is gorgeous but doesn't know it. I've met a few girls that are really pretty and they are confident and stuff, but theyre not conceited and they dont really realize HOW pretty they are. I just wonder if there are any guys out there like that. It just seems that all the guys that are gorgeous are all into themselves and KNOW they look good. It's different from confidence its self-interest. So I was wondering, do you guys think there are any guys out there that are gorgeous but dont really realize it? (link)
Yes there are those kind of guys out there but you don't notice them because they are probably shy or not confident. Just look around you and see if there are any guys you haven't talked to before and just wonder why not? Hope that helps!


you see, one of my best friends like this guy. let's call him johnny. well, one of johnny's guy friends who i am really good friends with told me a month or so ago that johnny likes me. my friend always thinks the guy she likes likes me, and to have one guy ACTUALLY like me would kill her. it's weird to ask this, but i need to get him NOT to like me, or my friend will be crushed forever. she will never let me talk to the guy she likes again. helpppppp. (link)
Well that's very difficult, but possible. Whenever this guy talks to you just ignore him just be completely snobbish or rude to him. Hope all goes well!


ok i like this popular jock and i dont know him at all and im not ito popular jocks i think realy inconsiderate and rude and im in his class for like the wholeyear and he knows who i am and my friends say that either he might like me cuz he does look at me sometimes or u have no chance at all and when i try to stop liking him it comes back though and i think i wastin my time but i am so shy i can flirt w/ my guy friends for fun and stuff but not w/ guys i like so can someone just give me advice? (link)
To get over him you don't have to stop liking him that will just take longer. Just keep on liking him and soon you'll realize this isn't going anywhere. Who knows if your friends are really telling you what he said the only way you can find out is by asking him yourself. You don't have to flirt with him just talk to him if he knows you then just start asking questions about him guys talk easier if they are givin' something to talk about. Hope all goes well!


Theres a guy at my school who likes me hes not the best looking but hes ok hes a little cute hes muscular but not to much and hes a really nice guy. The types i like are goths emos and skaters but hes neither a while ago his friends who are my friends too told me he likes me hes my friend now and now my admirer is used to talking to me i can tell he still likes me and yea he even tries to show off how strong he is and tries to be funny.....So should i give him a chance? (link)
It sounds like you really want to so why not, because if he is trying to impress you with his muscles that's like asking you out basically, he is really trying to flirt with you and this will be a new experience for you since he isn't someone you usually go for as in clique. Hope all goes well!


Okay, I've been hanging out with one of my new friends Corey, and I like him ALOT. & He knows too. But I'm not sure if he likes me back. He dated one of my best friends, ( and she's okay that I like him ) and she chills with us all the time. She dated him for a very short period of time, but he didn't tell her he liked her or anything. A friend just hooked em up? I don't know if I should get her to help us? Or should I just ask him hows he feel? Or what? I'm really confused. Thanks in advanced(: (link)
Don't let your friend help you since Corey didn't really like her it will just be weird if she were there. You should just ask him how he feels about you since there is nothing to lose if he knows that you like him already. Hope all goes well!


I really need an answer to this math brain teaser/problem. The problem is: Teams A, B, and C play each other once. A won one game and scored a total of four points. B scored a total of three points and there were NO points scored against it. One of C's games was a tie, and C scored a total of two points. Find the score of each game.
If anyone has seen this before or has any idea what the answer is or how I can go about solving it, I'd really appreciate it! (link)
A's games
v.s. B score was A-0 B-3
v.s. C score was A-4 C-2
B's games
v.s. A score was B-3 A-0
v.s. C score was B-0 C-0
C's games
v.s. A score was C-2 A-4
v.s. B score was C-0 B-0


okay i need advice to give to my best guy friend.
He likes this girl A and loves this girl B. well A likes him back and B loves him to. Me and Him are so confused because he doesnt know what to do. Weather to be with A or B. B told him that shes loved him and would b there when he was done with A. I told him if B really meant what she said then go with A. But then he said that he really loved B and then i said it sounded like hed rather b with B. then he said he didnt know because he really like A too. so i dont know what to do im stuck, hes stuck. Hes is also wanting to lose his virginity to one of these girls. please help and im sorry if its long. thanks (link)
If B is so understanding to let him go out with A then i would go with B because if she is that understanding to let him go with another girl then she can understand the guy and help through all the tough times. Hope all goes well!


this is kinda long..

so theres this guy that i really like. hes a freshman and im a sophomore and he is 6 months younger than me so i dont mind the age. anyway, we are becoming really good friends but i really really like him but i dont know if i should tell him. hes mormon and i dont know if his family believes in no dating until the age of 16. i do know that hes made out with a girl before so i dont know if that means anything. but i dont want to lose him either.

i was thinking of maybe saying this..
"hey i think im starting to like you but i still want to get to know you more and i dont want our friendship to get awkward"

should i say this? or rephrase it somehow?

i really want to get to know him more and maybe find out if he likes me. but i dont want our friendship to get awkward because i see him almost everyday. oh and id say the message over text because i really cant do it in person

helppppp? (link)
i would ask him if he has dated anyone before or if his parents let him date yet. Then that should tell u if you can ask him or not. What you thought of saying i don't think i would say it as a text since u and him are close friends just tell him face to face. Hope all goes well!
