Badass Nine-year-old Hated on by Bitter Parents
Aaaand so the pussification of America continues. A common story seems to be emerging more and more often in America. These days, it is almost impossible to go a week without hearing about another incident involving over-the-top, ridiculous parents. Their crazy antics continued recently when a nine-year-old was banned from his baseball league because he was too good.
What kind of a weenie coach forfeits the game because the other team’s pitcher is too good? I can just hear the coach’s speech now:
“Men, instead of playing, we are going to quit. When life gets too challenging - just quit. It’s not fair that he throws so hard. I know you all must be scared, and I won’t put you through this, because life should be easy, and no one should ever be better than you at anything. And, if they are, they are at fault and deserve ridicule. So let’s pack up our gear and head to to Dairy Queen so you can all get fatter. I can fit five of you little champs in my Volvo SUV!!! GOOOOO TEAM!!!”
Whatever happened to the days of having good players and good teams, bad players and bad teams, putting them out on the field, and letting them play? Parents REFUSE to have their lil’ Johnny or lil’ Suzie lose. For crying out loud - kids need to take their lumps and learn some lessons the hard way. They cannot be coddled and babied forever. America is going to have a generation of soft, lazy, fat, weak, wimpy, whiny, worthless kids and I will blame their parents generation.
Shame on those idiotic parents in Connecticut. When it’s all said and done, the group that suffers the most are the kids, and that defeats the whole purpose of youth sports.
Holy crap. That is the biggest bunch of BS I have ever seen. Punishing a kid for throwing too fast? What’s next? Telling Warren Buffet to stop investing money because he has way too much of it?
