Hi All!  For everyone who has tried to contact me but got a return message, you may e-mail me at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it   until we get the kinks out of my other e-mail.  Till then, keep swinging, hope your season is going well, and we'll see you all at the pictures very soon.  Also for all of you who were unable to view the trailer, click on it now, it is on youtube.  Or just click here www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJtaf6GwyPc 

Well if you were able to download the divx plugin and view the new trailer for 44 Core at the beganning of the site, you've seen that we are making progress on the film.  I'm excited to see how people will react when they finally get to see the finished film (especially considering how much time its been in the making and how many people it involves).

Thanks to everyone who has been involved in 44 Core and to all who have supported it.  During the course of shooting I realized how big a community the softball world has become.  It's a sport that takes up a great portion of the people's time and money that are involved and none of you would be doing it if you didn't have something you loved about it.  So on that note I'll get back to the editing bay and try to give you a film that celebrates and reflects that passion and what it means to be called a softball player.  Onwards and upwards!

ps. If you weren't able to play the trailer at the opening of the site, and it didn't prompt you with a download to install the divx software, try going to http://www.divx.com and click on the free install button.
