The issue with this is that 70 MPH softball pitches are rare, it's much more common to face pitches in the mid 60s. Average D1 is around 64 MPH or 93.87 Feet per second meaning from a mound which from 43 feet away means you have .458 seconds until it crosses the plate. vs baseball and a 91 MPH fastball on a 60.5 foot mound you have .453 seconds until it crosses the plate. Part of the assumption is on release point etc. But time until impact is basically the same. Which is the more common issue.

Odds are women softball players would be struck out by professional baseball players. Both are hard in different ways. Both hitters rely heavily on release points and timing. Baseball hitters don't have the timing to hit softball, and vice versa. Give both of them time and they'd be able to figure each other out and adapt their swings and timing.

According to Spotrac the Niners had a full practice squad, still inorder to elevate someone from the practice squad you need to make them inactive from the regualr squad as you can only have 53 or whatever players.

Had they cut or reserved Jimmy G, they could have signed another QB and put him on the squad, they had no intentions of doing that. As they played basically the entire season with only 2 active QBs.

No the rule was you would dress 45 with the flexible QB who would come in if a QB was inactive. An example I remember was the Eagles, many times when they had a healthy lead they'd inactivate McNabb and bring on his backup to save him getting hit. Because the dressed backup QB for the Eagles was Coy detmer who couldn't throw a 15 yard out because he had a noodle for an arm, but was David Akers' preferred place kick holder. Instead the rules changed and let you dress 46 no need for an emergency QB

Niners had 3 QBs on their active roster in the playoffs, Jimmy G just didn't dress

As I understood the Niners issue it had to do with Roster space. Had Jimmy G been inactive they could have signed another QB but they had a full active roster. They would have needed to cut someone. And they had no QBs on the practice squad as well.

As I understand there's nothing stopping someone from dressing 3 QBs right now. Just that teams elect to dress other players and gamble on the QBs not getting hurt.

IMO whenever a player is declared out for the game you could be allowed to activate an inactive player. But that's just my opinion.

Bittersweet symphony was a sample. It wasn't an interpolation. Interpolation is Gangsta's Paradise interpolating Pasttime Paradise. Interpolation is what Yung Gravy is doing when he takes the melody of Never Gonna Give You Up and sings different words.

Bittersweet Symphony doesn't take the melody from the Last Time. It samples the riff which they got permission to do. But what happened is a lawsuit from essentially a greedy manager who owned the Stones Catalogue and wanted to make a ton of money and knew they had the Verve over the barrel.
