@jakealley22 @CoachRonKretz This is a nice sentiment, if you ignore the simple fact that coaches are human beings, subject to bias, favoritism, and nepotism. But, sure, you can always lie and say, “It’s lack of talent.”

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@rashmoosten @amadden0408 @CoachRonKretz Yes. It’s also a cowardly response.

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@CoachRonKretz @HessDan17 ….including when the coach ignores talent and skill and opts to play his son, his friends’ sons, or the sons of the biggest donors to the program.

@DOBrienATL E. Infielders still allowed to shift too far.

@KRL_defi_ When a player signs a five-year $50 MM contest, literally no one thinks “[he] has $50 million sitting in the bank.”

@BrandonRexin36 I would trade 100% of tournament baseball culture for .01% of Little League culture from the 1980s.

@JackLinFLL @MyFWC @USFWS No true.

In Monroe County, the State Attorney’s Office pursues jail time for simple possession of single digit counts of undersized lobster, grouper, and other jail time. They will likely seek several months of jail time, plus a conviction for each of the 51 charges.

@JermaineCurtis How far away are you for the closest range drills? Like, 20 feet?

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@JermaineCurtis My son hits home runs in batting practice, but, in the games, his mechanics fall apart - in particular, he starts his swing too late, opens up his front foot, and doesn’t swing hard enough.

@coachzblair10 The real problem with youth sports is that travel programs has ruined the experience for players and parents.

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@bboos11 @Human_Optimize How do you prepare the eggs?

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@JermaineCurtis But, that’s not always true. I played on a high school team where the two worst players got extensive playing time - at the expense of better players - because their parents paid for the team’s uniforms and equipment.

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@JermaineCurtis Could you maybe demonstrate this in a video?

I would be worried that my son would start lunging at the ball, if I were to give him this guidance.

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@CoachBeede Agree with one caveat: not every Travel Ball coaches know this, because so many are just Dads who play their children and their friends children no matter what.

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@AustinHeff @MCO Also, it’s a rarity to find parking, because they frequently lock the garages and post a petty tyrant to order people away. And, they do this with no notice or signage.

@GarysheffieldJr People are beating up on @GarysheffieldJr, but most ignoring the real point of his question.

Gary - like many people - thinks that a breath test was given at the scene before the arrest. That’s the process in many states. …

@JerellLittle32 If the QB was capable of throwing to a wide open WR in the middle of the field, they win the games

If the QB merely doesn’t throw a INT, the game is tied.

It was the right call. The QB ruined it.

[Alan Fowler @Alan_Fowler]

@TheBrokerDrew I dunno. You’re being kind and judicious, but you shouldn’t need to warm up too much in order to hit a wide open receiver in the middle of the field.
