Yeah, we kinda out of hand. Sorry about that.

Coaching elite level travel ball was a blast for me. The overwhelming majority of the kids and their families were on the same page and enjoyed a healthy family atmosphere. In house baseball, not so much.

The junior leagues are a good way for kids to earn scholarship money from age 5 or 6 on up. It's never truly enough for a full ride, but I know a couple of kids that have aged out of juniors and made enough that it should cover books and tuition for 3-4 years each.

The key is there's at minimum, 40 some games. It's hard to get all worked up over one call or one game. And playing time is the least of concerns. And when there's that much time together, of course it develops a family atmosphere. And with that family atmosphere, on the rare times you have to put a foot up a kid's ass, the parents are going "hell yeah".

"Same page" is an apt description.

My oldest played 115 games at 13yo. I asked him a year ago and he said that he wouldn't have changed a thing. But then again he and several of his best friends got to see the country, sometimes without his parents.

It's a basic concept....positive reinforcement is always more effective than negative and punishment. Psych 101.

Constant hammering mistakes only results in getting tuned off. It's a de-motivator.

I like those okay but some people are busting on them.

Snickers and Reeses are always appreciated but I liked the randomness of sixlets those wax peanut butter things the generic bag (wax bottles bottle caps etc) and kits. Take five is all time favorite.

Absolute worst raisins pretzels and pennies. And those foamy peanut things. And pixie stix because they opened and got everything sticky.

Now I have none of it.

Stop by Walgreen's tomorrow...It will all be on clearance.

It’s a heavy cost but a price I’m willing to pay.

How hard is it to know what you want to purchase when you get up to the counter at a convenience store? Last 2 days I been in to get something simple and had to wait forever while idiots hem haw around about cigarettes and lottery tickets. Make up your fucking mind before you get to the counter!

pfft.. fucking amateur. If I run into a doorway, I cuss it out.

What brand of cigarettes did you buy, how many lottery tickets, and which porno mag?

Looks like you went to the inconvenience store.

I have a recipe we tend to make as it gets cooler outside that calls for Italian sausage. I always preferred the taste of the fully cooked Johnsonville variety over the fresh stuff.

After a few trips to various Jewels & Marianos, it seems Johnsonville stopped making it.
