Well then he's lucky we've got a nice backyard and summers off and enough lazy Saturday afternoons to fill any child's time and imagination to his heart's content with whatever schoolyard buddies he has...
It's true that someone always "has to be the best"... but one of the whole purposes of many organized leagues (especially instructional leagues) is for people to enjoy competition with other people that are of a roughly equal level.
Well, my very first post in this thread says that I have little doubt that there is much more going on behind the scenes that is not being reported in a small little newspaper/media snippet.
Absolutely assinine!
Just a further example of the politically correct b.s. destruction of America.
"Jericho, you're just too good to be allowed to pitch. You'll have to find another spot to play so we can slow things down and everyone can have fun and celebrate and be equal."
"No,no,no, Ricky. You little silly. You're supposed to hold the bat the other way."
"Bobby, you know what I've told you. The glove goes on your left hand, not your right foot, you little rascal."
"Now everybody, let's go have fun!"
WTF?
:grrr::Eason:
You're comparing an instructional league for 8 year olds to the Majors...? You have got to be kidding.
Well, I gotta disagree... taking an instructional league for 8 year olds and comparing it to Major League Baseball where players get paid millions to perform and then saying "it is pretty much the same thing" is a pretty laughable statement.
