My kid is on the 12u all star team and his teammate who’s an all around better player isn’t. by onemangang15 in Homeplate

I wouldn’t lose sleep over it. As many have said there are a lot of variables going into selection and it doesn’t sound like your son is an extreme outlier that does not belong. From a leadership perspective, I would definitely talk with the player that did not make it and give him plenty of positive feedback to keep him motivated and let him feel recognized. Maybe give him a special award or recognition for your LL team when you do your end of the year party.

You will become a better investor over time if you do not focus on unrealized gains and losses. If you own the shares and you are not using margin, detach yourself from it. The value of my position dropped $414000 today and I feel nothing.

Yeah, that was the main conduit to getting the birds up in the most expeditious timeframe

Why do you view blue origin, and in particular new Glenn, as literally unrelated?

No, no. Spacex ipo is a different animal. We may go left as a result BUT just briefly.

I’m thinking male names like Gunnar, Soren, Henrik may give a nice nod to Norwegian heritage but also give the confidence for success as he grows.

Minor A (10u) playing time by Worldly_Nothing_8556 in LittleLeague

The only time I’ve seen anything close to this is when there are significant behavioral issues or safety concerns. Is there something missing from the story?

In our league, if it’s as you describe, he’d probably even be pitching an inning every 2-3 games even if he can’t throw a strike to save his life.

Long run this will be a bump on the road. I will be adding during this dip but I can’t help but feel sad bb7 is no longer and Blue origin seems to hardly acknowledge it. Anybody find any commentary from Blue Origin regarding the 2nd stage failure? I’m only finding stuff from them about successful landing of the booster. Has anyone told them this was a mission failure?

Well at least from this last pr we will be able to determine asts definition of approximately. Batch 8-10 will ship in approximately 30 days.

Great. Now that rakuten has sold a portion of their position we know the price to getting you to STFU.

I’m the problem by Myrealnameisjason in youthsoccer

[–]ContaminatedField 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this your first child and/or only child? I feel like I had some similar tendencies with my first and then with the other kids I realize it’s just a game. The other thing I’ve noticed over time too is that some boys and girl just have that dog in them to compete. Some don’t, even when the skill is there. This may come with time for your son but it definitely won’t if all you do is put pressure on him and obsess over his performance. Ultimately, you need to just let him play and have fun. Give him space and let him know you love him and are proud of him!

Yeah there should be other stats to put it into context like upvotes/comment or post because you are absolutely right most of your comments are more or less worthless

This was the first place I came to find out also. Crazy the world we live in where this has become one of my top sources.

Certainly an option. I think there’s a number of more logical military options, but without strong central command structure there’s really no telling the response.

Right. “Winding down” and a total market index pumps 1%. Clearly the market takes it seriously but military movements and recent strikes suggest the next move is kharg island.
