My son tried out for a travel team. I don't know if he'll make it or not. I want to be prepared with something good in case he does not. What do you guys have for me?

and if not, it depends on how invested he is in it. If not heavily, I wouldn't even bring it up. Let him talk it through. If he was, tell him you thought the coaches were dumb dumbs.

You want to reward him if he gets cut?
What do you give him for F's on his report card?

Steves Dad gave him a company for his F's. Do you have a company?

Ha, re-read our exchange. I thought your reply was referencing her son would become a stripper if cut.

Seriously this. Unless he really is bad and wasn't even close (you know this or not). Then tell him to try something else or lower level ball if he loves it that much.

There's always football.

Bears need someone at safety.

Ravens need a RB.

NFL needs a commissioner.

Just tell him "No one hit a home run on strike three looking, no one says what smells good when you're not cooking, you will miss every shot you don't take, you don't get no cookies if you don't bake, you won't hit a bullseye if you throw no dart, you can't hear the beat if you got no heart, no one threw a touchdown if they drop the ball, no one ever got up that didn't first fall, so if you want to live in sweet romance, don't be afraid to take a chance."

The eval said his skills were average, his game play was excellent, but he lacked tenacity. I hope this changes him a little. I'm bummed for him.
