In his defense the portal has changed everything. Now there is little excuse in him being unaware
I would still be talking with the fire department if my wife saw that on our porch.

Maybe it is bad parenting, and none of us would ever tell our kids that
I had no problem telling mine. The world doesnt revolve around em...we love em, and we prioritize them when we can and we honor commitments...but parents are human too.

or I should say adults behind the big business of travel ball, have pretty much ruined the sports experience for kids
I see both sides. Crazy enough this year I have enjoyed my kids travel games more than ever. My first was a pretty skilled player and played on a good team, that felt more like a job. My youngest son is not super skilled, but is playing his first year of travel this year at 13, his team is a bunch of good kids, they play AA baseball and I have loved it for him, he is having a ball and his confidence is shooting up. He is advancing in the game quickly. He just needed some maturity and without the availability to play travel, he would have never played past 12...he may still not, this may be the end of the road but its been great for him.
And sadly, the travel teams invaded Little League.

When it was really hard watching games for me was on a college football Saturday. People that schedule things on college football Saturdays have their priorities all wrong
Now, I had a hard and fast rule, no baseball tourneys in the fall...the arms and bodies need a rest anyway. But college football, hunting...too much else that is fun going on. No kid needs to play all year baseball. Yes, you can train general strength, flex, and agility that can be applied to baseball but strong kids dont need to be throwing 10 months a year.

I have never hoped for a loss for them.
I have, espeically if we are in a town where there is something fun to go do afterwards. Hell, I have hoped my kid gets struck out at times, lessons in humility are underrated. Watching the kid play a sport while his sibling is wandering the ball park and mom is talking with moms and I am sitting down the left field line is not family time :lol. Going with a teammate to eat then seeing the hotel ceiling at 10 isnt family time. Getting up on Sunday to get to cage at 8am while skipping church, is not family time. Look we did it and still do it, but it doesnt mean shite until they hit high school. There are worse things in life than losing a game early enough to get home and jump in the pool and grill some steaks.

Usually no, but it has happened. We were 3 hours away and if we won our game we would rematch the team that beat us 11-0 (soccer) at 1pm the following day. If we lost we would play at 9. We had no shot a the title, so I was happy to win our 9a Sunday game and get home at a reasonable time Sunday
I dont understand the use of we, our, and us when referring to a team you dont play on, I hear it all the time.

We were the douchy team in that incident. CJJ needs to get a grip on the pimping and taunting
if pimping and taunting a tank hit at 1:30 in the morning to complete a huge comeback against a top 10 defending CWS champ is wrong, I don’t wanna be right


Tennessee does shite like that in the second inning of a mid week game

Honestly, we spend a lot less shopping that way.

Now, they select some shite products, but I ain’t having yo go.
Thank God we are addressing the important issues of the State.

Your second contention is prob correct, but it is what makes the first contention possibly incorrect. You cant think rationally here when dealing with this level of hate.

Our bullpen was great this weekend outside of Shores.
huh? We were pretty sketchy on Saturday.

and i went there in 2019
I was there in about 2016 and thought it was dumpy. Dirty and full of homeless. What ever problems it has/had are not new.

July day game at the old ballpark in Arlington.
I tried to time Nolans 300th win, home game against the As followed him getting 300 on the road. We went anyway....but holy shite was it hot. We were in the left field bleachers and it was like being under a heat lamp on those damn metal bleachers. There were like 1000 people there, so I dont know why we didnt move, but we sat there and took it.
No one passed out. Yes I’d like some shad, but come on man
And we are a top 10 team. They are playing well. Thx

Literally 3 posts before you a guy was saying all we do is take 1-2 good pitches then swing at junk. Which is it?
they say plate approach when what they really mean is to foul a bunch off. That’s it. That’s all the retards want
