Train

Is that all you got??? "You have a PM."? I predict 100+ views on this thread! hehe.

Take a chill pill...we have all summer together to discuss it!

PD...I would say 250 plus!! not enough people say it the way it is....Yogi

Train,
I think you may have gone too far for there to be much talking this summer.

Just one thought before the train jumps the tracks:

http://www.lyricsdepot.com/cat-stevens/peace-train.html

Ah, lyrics on peace by a muslim who has supported fatwah's calling for death...

Heeeeerrrrrreeeeee we go.....

Gee, if I had known that I wouldn't have posted it, I was just thinking in the terms of "peace"......between these two.......guess there is always 2 sides/views to everything. So much for my effort at humor and building a bridge. Back when this song was popular, in the veryyyyyyyy old days, that wasn't the meaning behind it...and that is where I am coming from and I still like the lyrics.............

Geshhhhhhhhhhh give a girl a break!
thanks for making me feel so bad about a simple post.

H&U...IMO I say whats on my mind and don't "sugar " anything to make someone feel good as I have seen here. The kids that perform on the field will shine and I hope they all do and make it to the next level on their own two feet and without daddy's help.

I received your PM and called you but your line was busy...you were probally speaking with DMN about stats!

See you soon

No harm intended, OBN! Just joshing ya' a little.


I'm so old, I can remember when he was a hippy instead of a mullah...

My cell phone is never busy. If there is no answer it goes to voice mail. As I said, I didn't expect that I would here from you anyway.

Sounds like your not the type to say what's on your mind one on one anyway. It's easier to hide behind the avatar.

By the way, you can try me again. Good bet is that I will answer.

Train,

The ability to be honest and offer an opinion is ADMIRABLE. Doing it without insulting someone or making it personal is CLASSY.

Unfortunately, that concept seems to have escaped your posts so far.

Just offering an opinion without sugar-coating it.

Well, said, there, T-Bird Emerson.

Well said.

I see the "Choo Choo" found his way back to the tracks and is full of steam.........

No problem, just didn't think it could be taken that way......I am just just stuck in the 70's.

I didn't think you were old enough to remember the 70's...

There will be no self-promotion, Texan.

Train -- how has a single message board post ever helped a kid make it to the next level? How do online discussions influence a college coach when it comes to offers? And how do criticisms of coaches at other programs help anyone?

You're baffling <-- okok, I could come up adjectives with less "sugar".

-PD

Texan,

Ask KD he knows I am older than dirt. oops another shameless promotion........KD let me know how many colleges call you after that plug.

Train...unfortunately I have seen the opposite in the pre-HS years of select baseball...there were good players that coaches cut or didn't want to take because their dads were hotheads or headaches for the coach...summer league coaches will only put up with so much from a difficult dad. I'd rather be the low-key supportive dad than the dad who likes to stir up trouble. Just my opinion.

I heard you are eligible for AARP discounts OBN.

Me, I'm basking in my youngness, and to think I used to sing along to that Who song....."Hope I die before I grow old"

Hope you're still young enough to duck fast...

Oops, I read that wrong at first...it's late!

PD:
Took me a second but then I got it.....thanks for the chuckle....hey, I will see you Tuesday/

KD:

First sign of getting old is still thinking your young.

Texan:
KD knows I might be thin skinned but I can pack a punch when I have to.


What about we just decide that this topic just got a bit "derailed" and move on to the next station.......
