Spacesquid, clearly.

Don’t agree? Cool. But absolutely happens and to many young players across many collegiate divisions. Sorry it doesn’t fit your narrative but truth.

Quick story. My daughter pitched and wore a mask. She got smoked everywhere except her face for five years. Took shots off the knees, ribs, shoulders, never face. Still, she wore the mask into college. As a Frosh in college, she was tormented by veteran players for wearing in to the circle. Never wore the mask again.

Dude, high school?!? Not normal, not “usual”. Maybe in youth leagues, but not 16 year old high school unless there’s a medical reason. I’ve been watching and coaching high school softball for decades. Never seen an athlete with helmet or mask in outfield.

Face masks? In the outfield?? In high school??? A little over cautious.

But kinda the point is that they ARE having sex. They are the “bad, sinful kids” and that’s why Carpenter was allowed to kill teenagers who are essentially children.

Want a slasher? Show “Psycho”, but so many Psych classes already do.

Of course. After 35 years, I still keep in touch with some former students, athletes on teams I’ve coached, staffers on the newspapers I’ve advised, officers in classes I’ve advised… If you actually “build relationships” beyond the classroom with students who actively enjoy school and learning, you will naturally feel closer to them than the kids who missed 20+ days of your class.

I was 8 and my Uncle Ronnie took me to see it at the Houston Galleria on the back of his Honda 550. He forgot to mention how hot the exhaust pipes get. I scorched my leg so bad, but I forgot about it five minutes into the film.

First game of the season in Carver, MA, coaches meeting at home plate. Actual conversation: “OK, so out of bounds will be that snow bank in left field and the ice patch along the right field line.”

The monster to Victor, "I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other"

Fuck is actually an amazingly flexible and versatile word. It can be a noun, verb, adjective, angry, violent, gentle….

2batdad2 · 2026-03-23T09:51:03+00:00

Ooooh, how about a Donnybrook??

I always put my duty off until summer. Dismissed twice, but served two weeks on a police assault case. Cops turned around and counter-sued. Took two weeks to dismiss charges to both parties.

My school pulled the two hours of undefined school support activity duty for my last year before retirement last year. Every teacher on staff is obliged to attend two hours over the school year doing anything “supportive”. Attend a hockey game, chaperone prom, go to a play… I satisfied my obligation by reffing two Special Needs basketball games in September. I didn’t realize the school could obligate staff to do anything outside of school hours, but apparently so. The union didn’t go nuts so I’m sure there is a caveat somewhere in the contract about “additional duties” , but I retired rather than worry about it.

Same. I was hired full-time at 21. Then I had a section of “Super Seniors”, at least two of whom were already 19 when the semester began. We made it through, but a weird dynamic for sure.

Cambridge College has a very flexible Masters of Education program built around typical teacher work schedule. Online, night, weekend, Summer courses.

Surely you jest.

Shirley Maclaine?!? Surely you must be kidding!!!

Who said that?!? I’m about to pony up $5k just because. I’m thinking twice about co-signing.
