Great thread!

I'll just say that I've probably made every mistake in the book as far as being a baseball dad. And yes we are insane. By the time my son was a Junior in HS I had finally figured it out.

The main thing i figured out , was that it is absolutely important for me to keep my mouth shut. Period.

I have absolutely no business talking to a HS baseball coach or travel ball coach about baseball stuff. And there are no exceptions to that rule. Ever.

Fundraising....yes.

Injury/ health issues....Yes.

Baseball.....NEVER.

The same rule also applies to NCAA recruiting coordinators / PG Staff / Current NCAA HC

-Baseball is none of my business. That business is between my son and the coaches
