The Las Vegas team initially challenged the JRW team for having illegal players on their roster, then withdrew their protest to avoid looking like sore losers. I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand, the team promoted the great game of Baseball to inner city kids, where the game had long been forgotten by many. But they did violate the rules and that matters, so I can see where their wins would have to be vacated. Cheaters cannot prosper or it sends a bad message.

We don't even know for a fact if they cheated. Whoever said cheaters don't/can't prosper is a fucking liar and a cheater.

It never helps. The kids tune you out and the other parents think you are a loon.

Remember i did coach them for a few years. lol

one thing I found really strange is the parents who are really quiet and they have a quiet kid and the parents become really loud and all of a sudden the "Thats my boy" thing takes over...an d you hear the "COME ON TOMMY, HIT THAT SHIT!" and you dont hear from the dad the rest of the time.

Was really surprised at the number parents/dads in the city leagues that didnt know shit about baseball, how to coach, play or much about it.

However, then you do have the guys who think they are running the Cubs AAA team out there.

We've got a dad in hockey that yells at everybody's kid and his is easily one of the top 3 worst players on the team. What really kills us is he doesn't seem to know shit about what they should be doing. He'll yell ice it when they clearly should not. My dad wants to punch him on principle and my husband might lose it if he says anything about our son. I got in to a heated debate about patches so I can't really be saying much.

The Dance/Gymnastic group is slowly becoming the craziest for me. Some of the Gymnastic moms are taking their kids to hypnotists. The kids are 7/8 and practicing for about 7-8 hours a week. They have abs.

The craziest parent I ever saw was in Wrestling. He screamed instructions at his son, taped his sons matches, and was regularly disappointed in his son's performance (even when he won)


I wonder if that kid ever went pro :roll:

You're an idiot if you need help understanding why anyone would feel bad for the kids.
