    I don't have a dog in this fight, but his son is Jon Fulton, Florida Marlins prospect. He was drafted in the third round out of George Washington High School in Danville, Virginia in 2003. I have seen him play, and he is very, very, good. I think he may have been converted to a pitcher by the Marlins.

    I am super excite to see what this guy is talking about. I am always looking for something that improves performance. I wouldn't say I am skeptical as much as tired of reading that there will be a link coming soon. Enough talking about it. Just do it already and let me find out how much this is going to cost because I will bet my 2,000$ car it's not free or cheap.

    I wouldn't beat your car that this workout is real either. All this talk with only himself giving recognition for this workout and has provided no names and has mentioned 4 times that a website is coming soon. Time to walk the walk in other words because all this talking is getting old.

    He sounds like one of those people that really get you hyped up for a product and tells you so many great things and how it will change everything and all you need to do is throw down $5,000 and watch your investment return within weeks type crap. Then you find out it was a bunch of lies and your in the hole and you either keep digging the hole or realize you screwed up and take the lose and move on.


    Here is how a commercial would sound like...

    "Improve you vertical, speed, velocity by doing nothing at all but just sitting on your couch and eating whatever you want. If you send me a $20.00 dollar check, I will send you this DVD showing you how to get quicker, then once you figured out that you need more, send me another check for $30.00 and get the special speed and delivery video and we will throw in a T-shirt and the Tom Emanski hitting video for FREE. Call within the next 15 minutes and receive this real Honus Wagner baseball card, valued at over $750,000 dollars for FREE. Call now operators are standing by."

    Skeptic or Pessimist.

    Hope I got the spelling right for "pessimist." Probably didn't but oh well. Guess I could have "Googled" it but I have lazy fingers. No Im just lazy all around.

    Now Frank,

    About this program. So a link is on its way? When might I ask do we get to see it? I'll click on it. Research it. See for my self.

    Now Frank if this turns out to be BS then well it is BS. As I see it TBR is a great site. ITs a great site because this is where good stuff is done. This is where information is exchanged to benefit everyone. No super smarts or super dumbs here. Just folks helping each other along the way.

    This site, does for things, the way things ought to be done. You see, someone with limited understanding of the way something is done in this baseball world, can get on here and get an answer for the most basic of questions. There are no dumb questions here. (Well maybe I posted a few.)

    The point Im making is that there are great people on here. That take pride in helping the next person out. Yes that can be exploited of course. We just hope that you are not doing that.

    Frank do you know when the best time to buy a new car is?

    Answer: Middle of January during a snow storm.

    Sorry fella. Got to poke at you as my skeptical pessimism is taking hold of me.

    I have never posted a dumb question. Translators are on special for the x-mas holidays. $9.95 with free shpping as long as I can ride my bike there.

    Not 100% on this.

    OK it is call the world wide web. No hiding. Here is what the blood hounds have uncovered so far. http://www.triadpower.com/director.php?id=30 Read the opened home page. Then look at the directors. Note the names. It is with this that I say. Just maybe there is something to this. Just maybe they are working on getting the site up and Frank may have introduced it to soon. I say let's wait and see. Remember you guys did not think the translator worked. But, you do now.

    I know that Frank Fulton has a good reputation and I don't want people to mistake that. My concern is the constant promo's from a new poster. We are here to share information and to help each other. If this is something that our members want....fine. But I don't want to inundate the board with promotional material.

    To me, it would have been much better to have your ducks in a row and have your information ready versus teasing our members.

    I clicked on the link and found this about that site

    Quoted from site
    "Triad Power is a girl’s fastpitch softball organization based in Greensboro, North Carolina. The propose of the organization is to promote and raise the awareness of girl’s fastpitch softball in the Triad area of North Carolina. We use a 3-prong approach to accomplish our purpose:

    1) develop players from the ages of 9 – 18 years old
    2) market and advertise girl's fastpitch softball
    3) host key tournaments in the Triad to promote girl's fastpitch softball

    The organization is led by an experienced staff of Officers, Board of Directors and Coaches. Triad Power provides players with state-of-the-art practice and training facilities and instruction by some of the Triad’s best coaches.

    I feel the need to stick up for Frank, though I've only known him through my son's association with Gloves for Peace, a non-profit that is helping provide gently used or new baseball equipment for teams in other countries (such as the team in Moldova, the project my son worked on with him) and initially through Perfect Game. I have found him to be a nice enough fellow, well-intentioned, with a heart for helping anyone, especially young men who want to play baseball. I hope he doesn't mind me telling this, but he sponsored a kid from Germany last year who wanted to come to Louisburg College to play baseball (Lukas Egetmeyer, look him up). This is just one example of the things he does behind the scenes to help young men with a love for the game. He also works for Perfect Game (in marketing, go to their website and click on "contacts" and you'll find him there), so I don't think you'll find him to be a shyster, as some on here have hinted. I first met Frank through PG, when he was helping out my own son.

    I've talked to Frank a number of times by phone, having met him only once, but in that one meeting I found Frank to be a man of his word, with a huge heart and a love for baseball. Perhaps he did not understand the unwritten rules of this site regarding not hyping anything commercial without prior approval from the MAN, Braves. If so, I'm sure he gets it now and I hope you will give him a chance to make it right. On the other hand, perhaps he is offering something to TBR members with no strings attached - in which case I'm sure we will all apologize for assigning less than honorable motives to him.
