I kind of respect this chick because she goes to games alone, pays attention, and keeps score. Now she's going to be mobbed by horny fat dorks who read Deadspin (Furley). Kind of sad, really.

She wants the attention. Her Twitter followers will increase exponentially and she will get paid in drinks to make personal appearances.

I seriously don't think she knows what she's getting herself in to.

I'm going to the game tonight. I'll be sure to watch for drunken yokels (underrated word, BTW) hassling her :thumbup:

Damn, that's a good one.With it being 5U, wouldn't it be best to just call the team , "When do we get our ####### orange slices and juice boxes?"

:thumbdown: Planning on working on stepover dribbling, diving headers, and corner kick positioning at the first practice, guy.

Good luck with that. If you can get one kid to stay in position instead of just running after the ball, you will have a coaching victory.Sports. Where we live today.
 
2nd pick tonight in non-ppr.

1st guy is taking ADP. Is the Foster/hamstring/picture thing legit or just a joke? Do I take Foster or Rice?

Will send you nude pics if you answer.

Same situation. I was thinking Foster up until a few hours ago. Now I am going Rice I think. Might as well play it safe, although I am a big fan of Foster.

My First World Problem Of The Day:My wife informs me that our 7 YO son wants to play baseball. Of course my first reaction is overwhelming joy. These are the moments you daydream about as a father. The deadline to sign up is today. No problem, I will call and get it taken care of.Then my doubt starts to creep in. This group is for ages 3-8. My son, who is thin, fast as lighting and I would say athletic as any kid his age, has not shown one moment of interest in baseball. He knows nothing about the game, does not understand any of the rules, has never held a bat in his hand. The few times I could get him to play catch, he was not very good, and loss interest quickly.The shark move would be to not sign him up, get out there everyday playing catch, get him swinging a bat, teach him the game at his pace. But then he doesn't get in this season. Am I being paranoid about throwing my boy out there with kids where 90% of them are going to know 10 times more about the sport?

So I got him signed up on Monday, dropped 100 bucks for the season, and I get the inevitable email just now: how would you like to volunteer to coach? I said yes.Any hidden perks to being the coach for a bunch of 7-8 YOs??

Probably not, unless you really enjoy buying pizza.My mom signed me up for T-ball at like 5 or 6 without me having a clue about baseball. I still remember all the kids hating me because I had no idea you could advance more than one base at a time. I thought everybody telling me to "GO!!!" were playing a trick on me. No wonder I'm so hateful.

Hot moms respect your power and coaching shorts?

While playing "soft toss" with them you can live out your dream of striking out an entire side with just 9 pitches.

Every once in a while you can just fire a burner down the middle (or as fast as you can throw reasonably close to a strike) to remind them to convince them that you are the best baseball player who ever lived.

Exactly. And never be afraid to brush back any wise-### that thinks he can crowd the plate during BP.
