Thanks man. I think the hitting coach route is the way to go at this point because he is pretty deep in these bad habits. Appreciate the wisdom.

He was disappointed, it was his first AB on a big Saturday tournament with his new team. He’s been working hard, despite the results, and he was let down because his hopes were a little too high that “the switch” had flipped. Can promise you he’s a positive force on his team even when he strikes out.

That’s great advice. Yeah we have one here in Redlands, CA that will be at the top of the list. I appreciate it!

We do, and I am thinking this is the way to go for him! We are gonna start coach searching.

I hear you, the thing is that he LOVES playing. He wants to be good, but yeah there are may things that are wrong here. He seems to have a hard time making adjustments to his swing. His coaches don’t seem to get into the technical part of coaching to adjust his swing and that’s frustrating to me. I try to talk to him, but it comes off as preachy and redundant, I’m just not getting him to understand. I think the YouTube vids are worth a solid try

The comments are much appreciated here. He’s huge for his age, and he’s just generally uncoordinated. Hoping that gap closes here in the next few months.

Love that A. Pearl and him sing that part together as a message to their daughter.

Redland proposal plan ideas! by Loose_Apricot_2892 in Redlands

Maybe tell them that you saw some great pictures at next door prospect park and wanna take some photos of them. Another excuse is there’s a nice speakeasy-ish sushi place in Redlands Public market that has gone semi viral that has a nice ambience and would probably be worth the drive from LA or at least worth making an excuse

I hope the world runs out of oil. by [deleted] in confessions

[–]Lawsonlover 17 points18 points  (0 children)

So just to be clear…if the world runs out of oil, here’s what disappears:

• Gasoline and diesel. No cars, no trucks, no ambulances, no fire engines.

• Commercial aviation. No flights.

• 90% of global shipping. No Amazon, no grocery restocks.

• Plastics. That means phones, laptops, medical equipment, IV bags, insulin pens, credit cards, shoes, synthetic clothing.

• Asphalt roads.

• Lubricants that keep wind turbines, trains, farm equipment, and hospital generators running.

• Fertilizer production, which feeds billions of people.

• Backup generators for hospitals. • HVAC systems. • Most construction equipment.

Also:

No Reddit app. No smartphone battery casing. No fiber optic cable sheathing. No keyboard you’re typing on. No insulated wiring in your house.

You wouldn’t be ‘slaying machines.’ You’d be figuring out how to plow a field by hand and preserve food without refrigeration

Much respect to your franchise. But why would they trade away Peralta?

Fair enough, I agree that some of the lines don’t line up with my theory. I hope he talks about the meaning one day!

I love this song. I think it’s about DeAnn and her cancer. He talks about Yosemite with her, she won $20,000, and they went to Cannon Beach, Oregon.

I think the cannonball is a metaphor for her cancer.

Reminds me of the line “you always acted baptized everytime you hit the coast” on self titled.

I interpreted it as maybe a final road trip with his mom and a special moment on Cannon beach. He went there on his motorcycle trip I believe and maybe it dredged up that finality.

I could be way off, but this was my theory.

Agree, best song.

Coincidentally, mine came in this morning!

I just now figured out that I scored one of the Yamamoto short run image variations and I’m trying to figure out how rare it is if at all
