Baseball Safety Glasses

I'm just curious, why didn't anyone get the yanks pitcher some of those safety glasses you see in workshops? If they could find bugspray you figure they could get him something to protect his eyeballs. If I were a baseball equipment guy, I'm going out today and purchase a dozen goggles or safety glasses or whatever would work in that situation.
**Laughs*** Didn't realize the yank fans were whining about the loss. You know, if it happened in Yankee stadium with a Yanks victory, they'd be talking about how it was "destiny" and whatnot.

The Yankees are looking for any excuse, I'm sure the bugs wouldn't ever land on a Cleveland player.

Whats your typical loadout and setup when you go into the field for a round of Airsoft?

For example, ill breakdown what I utilize:
Clothes: -BDU shirt and pants, either woodland or urban pattern (green/brown or gray/white/black)
- boonie hat that matches the uniform or a gray flexfit baseball hat.
- black or forest camo pattern or coyote brown Mechanix glove (fit great, good tactile feel)
- Surplus brown paratrooper boots (which by the way are nearly impossible to find for my enormous feet, cant be picky about color)
- grey or brown tshirt

Harness/Pack:
- Surplus Individual Integrated Fighting System with the integrated Tactical Load Vest, EQ Belt and Combat/Patrol light pack (Deleted the canteen holder, just added a bunch of magazine pouches and harnesses for various items)
- Drop Leg Pistol holster (dunno who made it, but it works)
- Israeli type thigh medical holster (double as a medic)
- Ankle pistol holster

Equipment:
- Camelback (worn under the combat patrol pack)
- Leatherman Multi-tool (BEST friend if you ever have a breakdown)
- some spare parts for all firearms (again, you never know)
- black green and brown facepaint (I typically don't paint up until I actually see the operating area)
- Bad Boys type safety glasses (yes I know its kind of stupid not to use a full mask, bite me)
- 1 roll of black duct tape (most useful tool ever)
- 1 spool of light test fishing line (this stuff is great for tripwire)
- 1 set of small binoculars
- 1 multi-channel radio with headset
- 2 Bandanas, one Red, one Green (have a few uses which I wont get into)
- Multiple spare batteries for AEGs

Weapons and ammo:
Primary Arm- modified STAR M-14 SOPMOD AEG (higher-power scope, bipod, 6 spare clips (amazing gun, just pure amazing)
OR
modified STAR G36C AEG with dot reflex sight and AG36 Springer attachment, variable number of spare large magazines and at least one double drum magazine plus variable number of grenade rounds (love tactical flexibility)
backup primary: One unmodified STAR UMP AEG (another fine gun)
-Secondary Arms
One Tokyo Marui USP AEG, no modifications (shoots great by itself) in drop holster, 3 spare magazines
and
Tanaka S&W .38 Special (Snubnose) green gas, 1 reload, ankle holster(PAIN in the rear, but its a weapon of last resort)
Utility arm-
Maruzen ca870 (extreme sawn off pistol grip Rem. 870) springer, right side of pack (surprisingly useful in tight situations and loads of fun!)
- 2 Escort Claymores with remote trigger, gas powered, usually loaded with 50 or more BBs and Talcum Powder (LOVELY surprise for the unwary)
-5 Escort MkII Green Gas Grenades (some or all can be replaced if AG36 is being used)

So thats mine, and im not posting this to be intimidating or anything. Yes its a lot to carry, but ive developed it to suit my needs and playing style. It may seem wasteful, but ive learned how to use it in my own way.
So how about you guys, what do you use and why? I feel that we should bounce ideas off of each other, maybe come up with new things.

I put on some camo and mesh mask. I use a CM032A or an Echo 614 useless I use my son's G36C.

I have a vest but don't bother and don't bother with pistols since my mags for those guns named hold 900/1000/470 and a spare rifle mag seems more useful than a pistol

I keep a neoprene mask in my pocket in case I plan on some close quarters and I put a radio in my upper pocket

Oh gloves. I hate getting shot in the hand.

DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN...?

All the girls had ugly gym uniforms?

It took five minutes for the TV warm up?
Nearly everyone's Mom was at home when the kids got home from school?

Nobody owned a purebred dog?

When a quarter was a decent allowance?

You'd reach into a muddy gutter for a penny?

Your Mom wore nylons that came in two pieces?

All your male teachers wore neckties and female teachers had
their hair done every day and wore high heels?
You got your windshield cleaned, oil checked, and gas pumped,
without asking, all for free, every time?
And you didn't pay for air? And, you got trading stamps to boot?

Laundry detergent had free glasses, dishes or towels hidden inside the box?

It was considered a great privilege to be taken out to dinner
at a real restaurant with your parents?

They threatened to keep kids back a grade if they failed. . and they did?
When a 57 Chevy was everyone's dream car...to cruise,
peel out, lay rubber or watch submarine races, and people went steady?

No one ever asked where the car keys were
because they were always in the car,
in the ignition, and the doors were never locked?
Lying on your back in the grass with your friends
and saying things like, "That cloud looks like a "
and playing baseball with no adults to help kids with the rules of the game?
Stuff from the store came without safety caps and hermetic seals
because no one had yet tried to poison a perfect stranger?
And with all our progress, don't you just wish, just once,
you could slip back in time and savor the slower pace,
and share it with the children of today?
When being sent to the principal's office was nothing
compared to the fate that awaited the student at home?
Basically we were in fear for our lives,
but it wasn't because of drive-by shootings, drugs, gangs, etc.
Our parents and grandparents were a much bigger threat!
But we survived because their love was greater than the threat.
who can still remember
Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys, Laurel and Hardy,
Howdy Dowdy and the Peanut Gallery,
the Lone Ranger, The Shadow Knows,
Nellie Bell, Roy and Dale, Trigger and Buttermilk.
As well as summers filled with bike rides, baseball games,
Hula Hoops, bowling and visits to the pool,
and eating Kool-Aid powder with sugar.
Didn't that feel good, just to go back and say, "Yeah, I remember that"?
To remember what a double dog dare is, read on.
And remember that the perfect age is somewhere between
old enough to know better and too young to care.
How many of these do you remember?
Candy cigarettes
Wax Coke-shaped bottles with colored sugar water inside
Soda pop machines that dispensed glass bottles
Coffee shops with tableside jukeboxes
Blackjack, Clove and Teaberry chewing gum
Home milk delivery in glass bottles with cardboard stoppers
Newsreels before the movie
P.F. Fliers
Telephone numbers with a word prefix...(Raymond 4-601).
Party lines
Peashooters
Howdy Dowdy
45 RPM records
Green Stamps
Hi-Fi's
Metal ice cubes trays with levers
Mimeograph paper
Beanie and Cecil
Roller-skate keys
Cork pop guns
Drive ins
Studebakers
Washtub wringers
The Fuller Brush Man
Reel-To-Reel tape recorders
Tinkertoys
Erector Sets
The Fort Apache Play Set
Lincoln Logs
15 cent McDonald hamburgers
5 cent packs of baseball cards -
with that awful pink slab of bubble gum
Penny candy
35 cent a gallon gasoline
Jiffy Pop popcorn
Do you remember a time when...
Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-moe"?
Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, "Do Over!"?
"Race issue" meant arguing about who ran the fastest?
Catching the fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening?
It wasn't odd to have two or three "Best Friends"?

The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex was "cooties"?
Having a weapon in school meant being caught with a slingshot?
A foot of snow was a dream come true?

Saturday morning cartoons weren't 30-minute commercials for action figures?
"Oly-oly-oxen-free" made perfect sense?
Spinning around, getting dizzy, and falling down was cause for giggles?

The worst embarrassment was being picked last for a team?
War was a card game?
Baseball cards in the spokes transformed any bike into a motorcycle?
Taking drugs meant orange-flavored chewable aspirin?
Water balloons were the ultimate weapon?

If you can remember most or all of these, then you have lived!!!!!!!

Oh yes ,you took me "back in the day"
Loved it!
If only we could go back.
