I would be ashamed As a parent if I sat outside Walmart or made up raffle tickets and asked somebody else to help fund my trip to gulf shores ot Cooperstown for a kids baseball tournament. That’s pitiful, and nobody who does travel ball is receiving Medicaid or food stamps... those kids have the best equipment and their parents can afford every penny they need... it’s just pure laziness and greed or whatever you want to call it.

To me it teaches the kids the wrong lesson... they can get handouts just like everyone else and all they have to do is hold up a sign or ask someone for money

Travel ball gets a lot of shite, deservedly so, but both my parents and I have great memories from playing in Cooperstown in 1997. Hopefully the kids get to have a similar experience.

So you believe only rich people should be the only ones with access to the better leagues.

Awesome.
