Does being around baseball most of your adult life make you a cynical, grumpy, suspicious PITA old man?

Can you spend a life around baseball and have a positive outlook?

Can you ever accept the fact that not all parents fit into your little sterotypical box?

Is it a crime or a sin that when your childrens life is sports, that it becomes a big part of your life as well?

If a coach spends so much time bad mouthing parents....are they any better than the parent that bad mouthes the coaches???

Is there an iota of a chance that a parent may know something about baseball??

Do you suppose and anti depressant may help?? Wink

Nah, doesn't need more views. Just a smart alec attempt at humor.

I've only been here for a little while, and I see too many negative derogatory posts about coaches and parents.

It wears on me that so many bad parents exist. It wears me that so many bad coaches exist.

Glass half empty or half full.

Parents are too involved. Parents aren't involved enough

Coaches don't talk enough. Coaches talk too much.

Coach doesn't make cuts. Coach makes too many cuts.

Parents are too hard on the kid. Parents are too easy on the kid.

Where does it end? What came first, the chicken or the egg?

Blah blah blah blah
Welcome to life 1BDad! Coaches are not people. Coaching is a obsession and some people just get caught up in it like a house mouse in a "sticky trap". Coaches should not be called dumb or smart. They are a coach. Leave it at that. I've seen dumb coaches do smart things and smart coaches do dumb things. All parents are idiots at one time or another. I has always been that way as long as I can remember. Not sure why it happens. I guess parents turn into idiots ----- and some idiots turn into parents. It's OK to talk about these things because you started this conversation. Big Grin Big Grin

Emerald I like your point of view ---- wait! are you sure that's water in your glass????? Big Grin
