re: Have you ever seen someone die?

I was 17 saw a guy driving a ford ranger roll over by taking a turn on a hill way too fast. Driver got half flung outside of the driver side window and the vehicle stopped rolling on top of him.

I never understood people wanting him gone so bad.
A male assistant coach harassed, made unwanted sexual advances forward and even had sexual relationships with multiple female student athletes. The Athletic Department which he was the head of then attempted to cover the Title IX violation up and you don’t understand why people wanted him gone? That was a black eye for Auburn University and heads needed to roll including his.

Agree with:

Disagree with:
Couldn’t disagree more with:
My experiences are they may not be dreaming of the MLB but they are just as delusional in their thoughts that their sons/daughters are going to be playing college someday bc they played in on the best low-level local team and won a bunch of meaningless rings at the Super Regional Fire Cracker tournament.
While it maybe not the $Mils that the OT baller BAWs would have you believe just the craziness that on a low level team you’ve paid say in the $hundreds of dollars to be on a team. Your team has then cost shares an additional $hundreds of dollars to be in a tournament at your local municipality owned ball field and then you are dropping tens of dollars just to enter is asinine.
No doubt rec ball has fallen off and it has less to do with travel being the only place to get reps and every bit of more to do with little Braxton is “better than rec ball” and if he’s going to play in college (again just as insane at less than 14 as MLB dreams) he needs to be playing travel ball.
Make Rec Ball Great again and let parents have their weekends back!

Low level travel ball (which is what majority of kids play) is just the replacement for rec ball.

it's not as expensive as people will try to make you believe if you are on a team like that.

It's simply the only place to play to get better at the game right now in most places.

re: Ever seen a Bald Eagle in the wild?
Posted by Barner on 1/26/25 at 8:10 am
Used to see one regularly off of I-10 near Bonnie Carrie Spillway.
Last weekend one flew over my house in Auburn, AL when I was outside throwing the baseball with my son. Truly an American experience.

I guarantee you Betty Chavers didn’t need this in 1989 to deal with a bunch of 10 year olds. She also never called us her kiddos or acted like she was our friend. She was the boss and ran her classroom.

Every good Christmas Gift this year got a High Tide at our house and that was with a bunch of Aubs.
Honorable mention - Bud Light commercials spanning from The Frogs to Dilly Dilly. Can’t attest before then and after the Dilly Dilly came Dylan or whatever his face is.
