Erec does have legit e teams just as well as e has legit d teams, but nobody plays up anymore, everybody is allowed to play down, I agree rec e is for your start up teams and teams that play once in a blue moon, e is loaded with teams that cud play d ball, its the same game, still thrown called slow pitch softball, but u cant keep combining b/c/d, not speaking for everybody but I can almost guarantee thats why possible d teams stay down, but its the same game in d e and erec... u have to hit, run catch and throw to win games... just wish more teams tested the water, bump up play a tourney see where they stand, hell last year ill guarantee you that there was only maybe 1 rec e team that stepped out and played up some... more shud follow that example.. only gonna make u better ball players fellas... just sayin
