My wife and I coached our kids tee-ball teams last year, one in 6u and one in 8u, the 6u we had done before and was a bunch of fun, the 8u was a pain, parents complaining about lack of practices and other stupid stuff. Opened my eyes to how different things are from when I was a kid. Boys across the street are playing baseball year round, one is 9 the other is 7, seems so young to me.
Should be playing at least 2 sports at this age. Not focusing just in 1. There are a couple of organizations for us that are year-round baseball to. Most won't even let you play if you are playing another sport during baseball seaso. Absolutely ridiculous. We have a core of 6 athletes that play everything together. Football(mine plays soccer), baseball, and basketball. We are bigger stronger and faster than most teams and kids we play but that doesn't always translate to wins against the kids that play one sport year-round.
Kind of makes me glad my kids aren’t good at sports. They play baseball in a church league that lasts for 6 weeks, soccer in the fall and school basketball in the winter but these are all 1-2 day a week...I can’t imagine going year round every day
Very few at a young age are natural enough to be considered good. A lot comes with reps and practice in the backyard.
My kids think anything on youtube is cool, so I try to find them some instructional stuff on there that helps with the fundamentals.

Watched this earlier today. I've heard some people bash Gill as just another tout, but I think he's super smart, entertaining, and he's never tried to sell me anything. Glad he stood his ground on this. There was no argument for WH in my opinion, other than "We posted a bad line" a la Tony at 5d. And if a B & M book pulled that crap they should be burned to the ground imo. Of course as you said once the small print was shown there was no argument left. They were just being beetches.
What bet was this? Whether he'd be on the Skins?Heads up, bookmaker graded the kirk cousins week 1 nfl prop
Thought I wouldn't see that money until september, time to go blow it on something dumb now
Some jabroni probably graded it like a doofus and then they put a report in front of the CEO that said "we won 1,000,000" on the NFL draft..... but then after changing the grade it turned out they lost 1,000,000 so they were trying to wiggle out of it. My guess is the reaction of the girl at William hill said it all and that there were probably others who stopped by to cash tickets that already were agitated.
boom thanks, now I can afford the running parachute for lilttle swirv he always wantedHeads up, bookmaker graded the kirk cousins week 1 nfl prop

I'm not going to go crazy with it but I have 10 wins as the ceiling with this team. It's a 9 juiced to the over at the moment.
i'm hoping the hype with their draft builds it up a bit. i'll give my right nut if that group of scrubs breaks 10 wins
I'd lean skip and just blind bet under totals each week. I'd think if they get to 10 wins it will be in relatively low scoring games. I don't see them getting to 10 on Dak's arm combined with that receiving corps winning shootouts or running Zeke all day.
Absolutely the right call dude. It's one thing to gamble it up a bit with your own $$. It's another thing to grind it out with a separate bankroll. It's another thing entirely to try and with with money you don't have. That almost never ends well.Well friends, I'm afraid to say that I need to take a break from gambling. I had a $9,000 bankroll in January and managed to diminish it to zero. Has been a terrible 5-months of gambling for me. The bets aren't hitting like they have in previous years.
At best, you want to be profitable and make money gambling.
At worst, you want your gambling to be self-sustaining.
This has been my worst gambling year-to-date and my bankroll has been anything but self-sustaining. I can't shake the funk and I'm not going to rely on MLB to turn things around. I'll see you guys later this year!
It doesn't make me any less of a man to walk away, I just need to do what's best for me and my family.
I'll just say this. You have some good insights. You could be a winning gambler. But your bankroll management and discipline will never let you, unless you change. Doubling up after losing, and chasing, and betting way too much on "locks" are no bueno. Winning gamblers over a long period of time don't hit the big score, they grind it out. It can be boring, but not if you can look at it the right way. If you can, do it, if you can't, stop gambling. It's not a get rich quick scheme or everyone would do it.Well friends, I'm afraid to say that I need to take a break from gambling.

taking her to top golf. I've never been. just paid 50 bucks to "reserve a bay" for us. have you ever been there? it feels like a place that rich d-bags go to have fun. is that correct? should I be intimidated by that?

To add onto what CN stated. The one here in KC is always busy and these is 1 hour plus wait whenever we go and 2 hours plus on Fridays and Saturdays. So it's good you got a reservation. From what I heard though that 50$ is for only the reservation and cannot be used towards your game play which is a BS money grab. You both will have to get a membership card ($5 a piece) then once you get to your bay you should be good to go and it's just like a bar with your own waiter. Each bay has it's own TV as well. Depending on what time of day you go you pay by the hour (you can play for only 1/2 hour if you want as well) and I think night rates start at $45 an hour for a bay. One thing we do to get more play is hit 4 or 5 balls at a time instead of each hitting one at a time and switching each hit and wasting your hour.taking her to top golf.
