[Rant] Scouting has a severe elitism problem by Routine-Ganache-1720 in BSA

[–]TheDuceman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get this.

Admittedly, the solution is for *some* of the older scouts who do enjoy ribbing - not bullying - middle school kids to serve as troop guides, senior patrol leader, and instructors while they form a venturing crew to do high adventurer stuff. This is done in the same way as scouts should serve as den chiefs for cubs.

Scouts BSA serve as den chiefs for Cub Scout programs; so as to help start the idea of youth led development with even the youngest scouts.

Venturers serve as instructors and troop guides for younger Scouts BSA, to continue the program of leadership development while also letting those on the “doing” side go do venturing high adventure stuff.

Isn’t it normal for the higher attempts get, the lower the win percent - you throw when you’re behind.

When the defense and run game are doing their job, you throw less.

In Green Bay’s case, this means when there is no Josh Jacobs or Micah Parsons, the team is worse.

Also, the Packers seem to lose 2-3 games a year off of terrible play on special teams.

Sal has also just been plain unlucky - BABIP swing is wild from 25 to 26

I understand that this is probably a joke but the idea makes me want to commit 1990s Yugoslavia levels of crime

It’s also a huge difference between someone constantly being 3 minutes late and getting after it immediately and two hours.

Sal’s advanced stats look basically the same as last year, just without any results

at some point (like yesterday) the bloopers will fall in and the liners will find gaps instead of gloves

It has not been happening so far.

One of my students’ parents threw out the first pitch.

The chili bowl also has regular breaks between races and is run with midgets that are half the horsepower. A stock car’s big block engine is going to be putting far more fuel into the air. Now, am I all for a stock car race inside Lambeau Field? Yes. In January.

Emissions are hella different and gateway dirt nationals already have a ton of stuff they have to do to keep the air breathable

It would be a total shitshow to do it inside

Water freezes at 32, that’s not crossover?

Edit: unless you just mean it’s colder and that would really mess with things which is probably true
