Would you put a cup of coffee on the bench inside the dugout of an girls' 6U softball game?
And then go out and be the first base coach, with the admonition, "Don't spill my coffee."?

2. Oh yeah
It spilled all over my daughter's glove, into her street shoes, and all over her spot on the bench.

I am the bench coach and it created more work for me.

3. I wouldn't have organized softball or baseball for kids that young
Their little muscles and bones aren't ready for the unnatural act of throwing.

20. But...but...but...why do you hate children?
Don't you know that if they don't start playing three sports, volunteering at the local AIDS shelter, maintaining straight A's in calculus, and working 20 hours a week by the time they're five, they'll NEVER be able to get into the college of their choice?

19. Thank you!
It is not MY job to assure that YOUR coffee does not get spilled. I am usually pretty busy making sure the girls have there helmets on and are ready to bat.

:crazy:

22. No, it was coffee
with cream and sugar. I wiped coffee with cream and sugar out of my daughter's shoes today because of this guy's lack of sense.
