  1. Kids really wanted to play basketball-right?
  2. Did they put a committee together to determine who should be on the committee to choose a coach. That used to be the superintendent’s job to choose coach then bring him to the board. After all, that is part of why he makes 150-200 thousand dollars a year while he has teachers making 35-45000 a year.
  3. Where can I find this information? Boys and girls.
  4. Runner’s punishment for going down so easy.
  5. They might as well go hunt a young gun who wants his first head gig.
  6. Been told by someone who worked there for a few minutes that kids don’t have any desire to succeed. Probably lot of transients from around lake, don’t know that for sure.
  7. I love it. Sounds like you been there done that.
  8. What about the arm development of a 7-8 year old trying to throw the different pitches. I can see that leading to elbow and shoulder problems as the arm structure develops later on .
  9. So right. I feel sorry for some of the kids . Fun for awhile but to a young kid it could get old in a hurry. Daddy should be out in the back yard playing catch with the kid instead of playing competitive sports at this age. I guess I am so old school it is unrealistic. Kids haven’t changed, parents have.
  10. Yes sir ! Community close by where I live is starting a 3-4 year old buddy ball flag team. Evidently daddy did not do as well in high school as he thought he should. Now he is replaying his career through his 3 year old kid. Beats it all.
  11. The more I watch this the more questions I have about the actual benefits to kids and school programs. What are your thoughts?
  12. Most kids don’t know if they love the game at 14and under. A lot of them play because “daddy” wants them to . Kids do burn out- example — young lady, my neice, played from time she was 7 as a pitcher, parents took her to all the lessons she could handle, summer ball, select ball, went to state softball tournament junior and senior years, got offers galore. When asked which school she was going to, her answer was “ I don’t want to play anymore , I am burned out”. It does happen. Now she is a happy mom with a baby boy .
  13. I have no problem with jh kids being pulled. They need to learn- academics first! If a kid does not do the work in classroom then probably not do it on the field. Special circumstances are acceptable.
  14. Have no idea. Don’t know this coach if he walked in the door.
  15. If not mistaken, most communities have some form of pee wee football. When you start at age 3-4 , a lot burn out by 9th grade. Same thing little league baseball has done to high school baseball . How many kids that play little league for 11 years wind up playing baseball in high school. I realize there are exceptions.
  16. Maybe Edwards could bring the slot t to Ore City. Just funning.

    The old saying that the officials let them play would apply here.

    78, so the 2 fouls on Buffalo were both missed 3 point shots so Fairfield shot 6 free throws and missed all 6 of them in order to have made the score 84?

    Did Buffalo get many free throws?
