Take me out to the...what the heck?

Somehow, I came across a site for the National Xtreme Baseball League (NXBL). (You know it has to be totally awesome, since they spell extreme with an X!!!!) This could possibly be the worst idea since tomato-flavored Jello.

Diagram from http://www.ssa.cc/nxbl.htm.

According to the NXBL website, Xtreme Baseball is played on two interlocking diamonds. Each diamond has its own home plate, pitcher's mound, bases, and baselines. Each team plays with a regular team of nine fielders at the same time. One pitcher delivers four pitches, while his team fields and the opposing team bats. Then the other pitcher delivers four pitches from the other mound, while his team fields. The team batting on the "Weid Side" runs the bases counterclockwise as in regular baseball, while the team batting on the "Flip Side" runs the bases clockwise.

Basically, this is just a nutty-ass idea which does nothing to make the game any more exciting or add anything else to the game, other than some confusion. The NXBL is in its second season, and I predict that it will not last much longer.
