AHHHH political correctness. That was the last thing I thought would enter a conversation on 2 strikes. If the word butt used in that context were to bother some folks then so be it. When coaching 18u I can tell you the language they use can put my little pc violation to Shame.

I agree with that. I say butt pretty often during HS and TB practices. One of my memorable moments was when a player got hit in the butt with the bases loaded. I told them that was an RBI—Run Butted In.

An easy way to gauge if you're being inappropriate is to ask yourself if you would say that to a baseball player. Assuming, of course, you're not a Sandusky.

It was not a political correctness thing. It was that the girls would be too self-conscious about (the size of) their butts to focus on playing. Hey, wasn't me who made it up; I just thought it was funny.

Does this mean we should stop telling them to unhitch the trailer? :)
