@mismi,
Oh - Gbaby's team got beat - listen to this....
35 - 16
heinous. Most assinine plate ump ever. He has the smallest strike zone I have ever seen for 9 year old kids. AND - ANNNNNND the other coach was - well - I can't go into it. It was the most pitiful display of the wrong kind of competition I have ever seen. And I was mad. A dad from the other team protested when a kid from his team got a third out (it was 35-14 at the time) and I lost it. I was keeping the books - again - but managed to say loudly that I hoped he was kidding.
He came up to me afterwards and said he was not trying to run up the score afterwards. I asked him if he had looked at the scoreboard at all the entire game. I asked him if it was beyond his ability to allow one wrong out (it wasn't though) to end the sound beating they were giving us. I told him his team was amazing. Truly the best team I had seen all season and I hoped that they get what they deserve. It's one thing to give a sound whupping to a team...it's another thing to humiliate and to keep bunting and have your kids play off to cause the already flustered kids to overthrow the ball.
Makes me want to puke just telling you about it.
But guess what I get to do now. I have had great guilt from my verbal diarhea. I will have to tell him I am sorry next time I see him. Hopefully that will cure my rampant spew issues.
