You’re either fricking retarded, or this is a pretty solid troll.

Your attempts are an attention whore's affront to modesty. Please stand down and allow people to speak freely on the SEC Rant. Jesus needs the cross back, and Hitler no longer has the authority to judge in "HIS WAY."

Let people talk.

My understanding of it is there is not enough wood to go around to fully support college baseball as well as the major and minor leagues.

Metal bats came into play in the late 60's or early 70's.

It was an economic decision. Wooden bats break and they cost was the main reason for the switch to aluminum.

College baseball was not as big as it is today and baseball programs were hanging on by the skin of their teeth.

The decision was made and it has not changed. Professional baseball still hung onto wood bats.

I think today you could make the argument to get rid of aluminum bats due to safety. The ball flies off of metal bats much faster than wood and pitchers are at risk.

IMO there would be a lot of pull back from the smaller schools and conferences due to cost.
