Begging people to give you money for your kid's travel ball. UPDATE: Admins triggered!

You sound so fricking jealous right now.

If a college has to beg donors to give money to NIL... You shouldn't play major sports

Way to quickly flush out all the travel ball parents.

Those Z71 Tahoe payments aint cheap, baw

I wouldn't call this begging and I'll buy a raffle ticket on occasion to support this (particularly if I'm interested in the prize). However, I do see where some travel ball parents simply want you to donate money. THAT'S begging.

Bump test


ETA: yup this shite was anchored! appears a travel ball dad who didn’t raise enough for Baby Crews is an OT mod

I told this story on here before, but I used to work with a guy who, when he wasn't working on something, would be on the phone talking travel baseball. It was an open floorplan with offices around the outside so you could hear everyone if they left their door open and did.

This dude used to complain because they would get a team together to go play out of state and evidently there were kids whose parents told them they were not paying that amount of money for them to go play in a tournament. They would have kids whose parents were willing to play but the kids they wanted were better so they would pay for these kids then complain about how much money they spend.

One day he decides to do a raffle to raise money because they decided to open up an account and raise money so they can have it to help pay for kids who couldn't afford to play. That's how he sold it, but everyone could hear him everyday and he sold 0 raffle tickets at work. Dude was pissed and was sort of standoffish for about a week,
