oh the drama...the truth is the head is one of the safest places for a kid to get with the helmets they wear these days. I never said he should hit him in the head, i never told him to hit a kid - he is a smart and observes lots of things, it is pretty clear when it is appropriate.
Plus we already established that he will never say anything to anyone so it is nothing!! Honestly this whole thread is much to say about nothing.
You want to not be thrown at, respect the game, respect the other players and you will have very few problems, if any.
Maybe the most assinine thing I've ever read on any message board. You justify hitting someone in the head by saying "it's safe cause he's wearing a helmet"....then 2 sentences later say kids should "respect the game...respect other players" Curious...what happens when your son throws a FB and hits the kid in the face?
Oh right, he'll never tell, so you're not liable....so it's ok.....unbelievable
I didn't justify anything. I never said anything about hitting a kid in the head being good. i said that obviously keeping your mouth shut is mandatory. I said that my kid hit the kid on the hip and he deserved it and I was fine with it. I didnt instruct anything but to keep your mouth shut. That still seems correct to me.
Some other posted went off on how a pitcher is going to miss and throw the head shot.
i simply said that with the helmets today the head is very well protected... I think that is pretty self evident. We have all seen multiple kids get hit in the head and balls go shooting off to the side.
You are making a HUGE leap to accuse me of saying that it should happen, wanting it to happen and supporting it to happen. The fact of the matter that is - that leap is totally incorrect but you didn't have the comprehension to get past The obvious disagreement you have.
as far respect the game. Yep that statement I stand by, believe and support. I believe anyone that has played or coached against or with me would agree.
Yup with a post like this I agree with JH 100%!
