Well, just to give you an idea, I'm a D1 college athlete, and I play baseball at a competitive school. That's why I have

and

(mind you the second one is in fact a circle, not like in the picture, and it doesn't have the line of lyrics across the top and across the bottom)
Anyway, My question for you guys is, I want to add something to the baseball tattoo, because the other tattoos are somewhat "badass" for lack of a better term, and I want the baseball to have some of that notion to go along with it. Anyone have any ideas?

To be honest with you man, I think the baseball tattoo was horrible, your gonna regret that like fuck when your older, unless your like a major baseball fan like maaajor whole life dedicated to baseball type fan.
But anyways to answer your question, you could get like, all of your favourite players names or like some famous legends of baseball around the actual baseball. Like write them around in a circle or spiral.
Edit: ^^That wont look real 'badass' or whatever, but it sure looks cool in my head.

heh. I don't think I would be in college right now if it weren't for baseball. I owe my life to the sport, and I'm going to be a dedicated fan for the rest of my life. It's something that I will always love regardless of if I'm playing it or not.

Well aslong as your sure your not gunna go off baseball atall then go for it. I like toonces idea of havin ur favourite players names round it. That way you can add to it as you like more players. Aslong as it looked good and you didnt have too many names round it

Eh, that idea is good, but I don't want someone else's name on my body unless it's a family member, cause feelings can change, family's forever.

What about just the biig biig legends. You've already got the baseball tattoo so why not get more shit to add to it?

I'm not really that into the legends, I mean, I know a shitload and they're amazing human beings, but...I dunno, I guess I'm just not into the idea.

Maybe get a good tattooist to add flames and an effect, so that it seems the baseball is being thrown at very high speeds.
Im no artist, but that certainly would be classed as "badass"

That was the first thing that came to my mind, were flames. It's definitely a possiblity, but it seems really cliche...the whole flames coming off of an object of "affection."

First thing I thought was flames too but then I thought they were too common. So I came up with the Ring of names thing but the best idea I've heard yet is from Khronic
