This makes me happy that my 7 year old son picked lacrosse here in TX instead of baseball.

It’s no better. They are all the same.. good friend got popped by a parent on his own team for trying to keep him from running on the field after a hard check.. Competition brings out the worst in some people. They feel validated and in the flip, emasculated by the performance of their own.

Will say that baseball is hard because of the high failure rate when at the plate.. my son bats near .500 but god damn if some parents don’t look sideways when he lines or grounds out.. some truly desire failure of their childs own teammates and it’s disgusting. The kids are great and simply love playing baseball, if not for that, I’d pull his arse for the few bad Apple parents..
