5 year old all star teams are fricking ridiculous. Get your balls back and end that shite right now. Your wife is using your daughter as an accessory and you’re allowing it

Wife is next to me on the couch looking up hairstyles, and planning on dying my daughter's hair for the tournament. We've been invited to 3 travel teams, it's begun. What is the travel ball girls name so I can get it changed? What's the best technique for making sure I keep the beer flowing while coaching?

Make sure she wears a hair bow and not a visor and do not let her hang out with the visor wearing girls, they end up playing for the “boys” team later in life.
There are not many fields that sell beer. Traction and chalmette come to mind, you may get shot going to the first and shot at the second!!!
Cant wait to see pics of your wife’s toes in flip flops on a backstop with the caption “ love watching my girl do what she loves”

What happened to park and recreation ball?
Your neighborhood played another neighborhood.
The best went on to play the best in the city.
Dads drank the Miller ponies and bbq hotdogs afterwards.
Moms were drunk on cheap wine pre box wine.
Then the dads all went to the hot moms house most of the times with a pool to bbq and drink.
We all went swimming while the parents drank.
Those were the days.

It's official the OT is not only stupid they hate everything.

1. This IS NOT travel ball. This is park ball all stars.

2. They are not "kicking dirt around" plays are made. They are throwing girls out at first, catching pop ups, line drives, etc

3. She likes Shinedown from arguably the best LSU football hype video (bonstoker)

4. My daughter is having fun and we're supposed to quit now?

5. Y'all calm the frick down and come find me and my wagon and I'll give you a cold beer.

Nice assumption, my wife and I are quiet people and let actions prove things out. I work 1x1 with the kids in practice and help where I can, coach first in games. Wife just cheers them on.

We do have some of those parents that have bitched about everything from day 1. We are very much of the opinion that our daughter will earn where she plays and keep her mouth shut.

Check out the movie “bad parents”

It does a pretty good job describing the life of club sports

Most of these kids will be turning 7 in the next 3 months.

ETA gif proof if it works. Have video of throws to first from all infield positions too.

Oh look. Another travel ball thread where posters with no kids can tell us all how parents should spend all their money on Jaxtin and Braxtynn.

This is how this thread is going to go…

Jaxton Braxtynn, Brayden, Aiden something something MLB hopes at 8 years old something something vicariously through kids acting up at a Pizza Hut because they can’t control the cost of the entry fee at the gates of the park while whining about parents bringing wagons to carry their rings after playing all weekend while dad comes to the OT whining that he hates it.


This has been going on for a decade now on this board. Shouldn’t there be new material?


Sorry if your kid can’t cut it in travel ball

I’m contemplating an hour and a half round trip to go watch a 15 minute closing ceremony for a soccer camp my son’s been at all week…and I have no idea if he’ll win an award or even be mentioned.
