    Don't be that parent

    I know you have all heard to stay away but it still happens. Quick story. DD ,who recently finished her college career, is now going to grad school and helping her old team as an asst. coach. This weekend she was recruiting nearby so I took a ride with her to a few games. I wandered around while...

    NCAA women of the year

    DD was nominated for NCAA women of the year along with 480 others (68 softball players). I know that is a real lot but still kind of cool. I threw $2 on her at 480-1. Is that a violation??

    All time great parent moments

    Now that DD has finished her career as I watch games I reflect back on some great or some ridiculous softball parent moments. I'm sure we all have some funny ones and here's my favorite. I was coaching 14u travel ball and had a girl "Gertrude" that was placed on the team and after meeting the...

    Props in the dugout

    I know it is nice to say the girls are having fun but the props in the dugout are ridiculous. Did you ever see a Alabama football player with a horse head? How do coaches allow this?

    Shameless Brag

    I know there is a brag thread but figured I would put it on the college thread. Don't usually like to jinx the ride before it is over but had to give DD and the team a little brag. Needing to win two games to keep their season alive and DDs softball career alive the team won two extra inning...

    Illegal glove

    If anyone knows I would appreciate. DD is a college pitcher and was told by her coach that her glove is illegal because it has red in it like the seams on the ball. Sounds kind of dumb but I know there can be some very dumb rules. She has a solid black in her bag at all times just in case. We...

    Players of the Lost Park-The story of a New England softball team

    This is more of a rant at the hands of Mother Nature than a discussion but up here in New England, D2 college softball has gotten to the point of ridiculousness. I say D2 more than D1 because the D1 teams from around here do more traveling and although they have missed games they have been able...

    D1 vs D2

    Being a D2 dad I would say I am bias towards D2 but I honestly believe that D2 is not as far behind D1 as it would seem to some. I will just give you a couple of comparisons from our perspective. We are a borderline top 25 D2 team (in and out last year and in the others preseason this year)...

    Snow Woes

    I know we live in the northeast and we should be used to the snow but it is tough when you get to Florida and you open up against teams that are 10-15 games in. Our girls will be putting their cleats on for the first time. Tough disadvantage but obviously nothing that you could do. Is there any...

    Old School

    I am new to this site and have shared a few opinions from my experiences and been shot down like rabid dog. It is amazing how things have changed in just a short time. My DD is a 21 year old senior in college and in her years of learning how to pitch, she or I have never heard of most of the...

    Dont lean too much on PC

    Dont waist too much time or too much money on PCs. Learn the motion, grips , spins and then depend on your own hard work and not $50 weekly workouts. Depends on the girl but can be done without throwing big $$ down the toilet. Have seen it done.
