Recently heard an AD say, "Do you want to go back the way it was before I got here? You people...all you care about are your kids? If I have to buy those ***** baseball pants out of my own pocket, I'll get them."

I guess we just need to get this AD a "police man's badge".....

I've gotta get my binoculars, go to my spot on the high hill that overlooks the practice field and quietly keep an eye on the police chief!

Whoever wants to know the heart and mind of America had better learn baseball, the rules and realities of the game—and do it by watching first some high-school or small-town teams.
