    Any 10u flame throwers at PGF Nationals this year?

    I am very happy to read that so many of Ray-Ray's cousins are following in her footsteps.

    Controversy in Georgia baseball game over bases-loaded walk

    I can't imagine the need for a heated pole barn in Georgia, so they must have something else the board members wanted.

    Am I right or wrong here?

    I agree with Marriard. This makes no sense. But if your DD is the best pitcher around, you should take the 3 best hitters and go form your own team. A coach who takes 8 pitchers doesn't know what he's doing. That's a 10u rec all-star team, where everyone is a pitcher and shortstop.

    Ethics Question - Accepting a Spot on a Team, but still looking?

    No advice. I'm only surprised that this is even a question, but if people aren't in agreement on the definition of 'is', I suppose the definition of 'commitment' should be decidedly fluid, too.

    17yr. Old wants to return after having baby

    No nursing allowed in the dugout, I take it. Quality troll intro, but troll nonetheless. At least it provided a worthwhile discussion.

    some people need some real issues to deal with

    "Loyalty isn't what it used to be. Unless, of course, your daddy owns a pole barn." That thread is the gift that keeps on giving.

    High school tryouts

    It seems that it's you, not your daughter, who feels he's 'missing out on the glory' of her being a 4-year varsity player.

    Seriously considering not having dd play travel ball yet

    If there was a late cancellation and you're not on their team's call or email list, that could be the explanation as to why you did not find out. I doubt they would deliberately do that to your DD and you. Not being 'invited to at least go watch' only means that your DD is not their main focus...

    How much money did you lose?

    Is it possible to have Men's professional sport be any scummier?

    That is correct. And there's an almost direct correlation between legalized paddling in schools and our nation's dumbest states: the South + Arizona.

    Forearm pain - stumped

    As described, what you're talking about is a very common injury that is generally linked to overuse. Hopefully that's all that's wrong. If her doctor doesn't recommend ceasing activity for 10-14 days in addition to a standard treatment regimen, I'd suggest getting a second opinion.

    What Would YOU Do? Please Advise

    Yes. Help your DD find a good team and then just parent. Stay out of coaching until you gain a broader perspective about this whole thing.
