What is this thread concerning? You can do this....

You silly son of a bitch. :lol:

And this is the pivot. So you just want a particular person to be transparent? You dont' care that Hegseth, Trump, Waltz, etc... have all been tranparent. You only care that Leavitt didn't tell you exactly what you wanted to hear?

WHy not just say, "Hey, BugAC, i didn't know that the administration was being transparent because i'm programmed to always hate anything from this admin. Therefore, my current tactic is to divert and only focus on Leavitt and ignore everything else around me. I do this because my entire facade on this board is pretending i'm smarter than everyone, and i don't understand that admitting fault is a sign of character because i don't have any character."

How fricking hard is it to say "we made a mistake adding a journalist, but nothing harmful occurred."

Are you ignoring that is what they actually said, or are you playing ignorant?

Personally, i like that the left's "rising stars" are a legitimately retarded woman from New York, and a black woman who is pretending to be ghetto trash because that is what the left thinks will help them.

yall are so fricking stupid with this shite

You're really no better. As with every thread on here, you spout off with "everyone is lying about travel ball" but when confronted with people's anecdotal experiences you will eventually say, "well that's not how my kids travel ball team is".

Maybe, it can be both? Maybe, some of the good things you say are true, and some of the bad things they say are true? Maybe, travel ball has a reputation for a reason and it's not because a bunch of people on the internet decided to pick on travel ball parents.

s. The best kid in the 12 year old league pitched 58, 10 year olds in travel throw that.

Are you clocking 10 year olds?'

quote:

most travel kids play multiple sports

---

This generally decreases as they get older. Not just baseball but any travel sport. I attended a coaches meeting for basketball at our school league and listened to the local gym owner tell parents that "when your kids are in junior high, they need to start focusing on 1 sport".

quote:

---

very very few play year around(practice and train, sure but not games)

---

Again, with age i find this to be less true, at least locally.

quote:

oh and no you cant make good hs teams just playing rec ball.

Maybe, but it's a self fulfilling prophecy. A few years back, a shrewd park owner convinced some parents that "if you just pay x amount, you can have access to this park year round and your kid will definitely play in college". So word of mouth spread, and more people started to pay more for "better results". Well, now it has morphed to "if you don't play travel ball your kid will never play JV sports at school", and "if we don't cut the 7 year olds who aren't out of the womb athletic, then we'll never get priority at practice fields or seeding at tournaments." I state this all the time, it didn't HAVE to be this way, but now it is. Now, for most cases, you do HAVE to be on a travel/tournament team or your kid will fall behind. There are exceptions, but in the end, if he wants to play high school ball (and even that is considered inferior to true travel teams) then we, the parents, must pony up $2-3k every year and say goodbye to weekends for 6+ months out of the year.

Why proof of employment.

If you aren't employed, then you don't have a skin in the game.

During Covid I got let go for awhile. Still paid taxes etc.

Income taxes? If you have proof of employment within a timeframe, and i'll be generous and call it 18 months, then you can vote.

Should I not get to vote?

You specifically, no.

Are you arguing the Tesla vandalism, not the car keying but the firebombing of cars/dealerships is not a form of terrorism?

What's the difference between that and abortion clinic bombings? Both are using violence to affect political decisions.

You shouldn’t get knocked for choosing an organization to practice fundamentals and play competitive schedules. It has nothing to do with college it’s just not choosing a telletubbi version of baseball

---

And how many 7 year olds did yall cut in your “developmental” league that teaches “fundamentals”?

quote:

---

do recommend rec for all the ballers who are on the road and making so much bank

You realize rec league is the less expensive of the 2, right?
