Little League time of the year (regionals).

Good game on now (espn) between SD and Nebraska. Great game earlier between PA and NY.

How the world has changed.
I played LL back in the 50s.
At a field about a mile and a half bike ride away.
We played in the afternoons on weekdays, so mom home was taking care of my siblings and Dad was at work.

Now it’s like semi-pro ball. If your kid isn’t going to clinics and instructional camps year round, he’s not even gonna get on the team.

BBCOR has hurt the game.

I actually held a Parade Magazine in my never nicotine stained fingers the other day. The first time since I stopped subscribing to dead-tree newspapers in the 90’s.

Eight pages and virtually devoid of content. Those Jehovah’s Witness tracts they hand out have better and more compelling content.

I played it and coached it, but haven’t been around it in decades, I wonder if I would still like it.
