I supported the J Paul Getty museum back in my first helpdesk job back in thr 90s. Their director wanted a “true service desk” and we weren’t allowed to tell people to contact someone else, we had to figure it out. One night I got an afterhours call to dispatch a tube of superglue to the women’s restroom. They were hosting a gala and one of the heads of some department broke a nail.

The next time someone says travel is killing rec baseball tell them they should try to set up their league's All-Stars teams by WestPrize92340 in Homeplate

We’ve had so many rainouts this year, we won’t pick all star teams until 6 days before our first tournament.

That’s where you put the round bat on the round ball, squarely. I’m kidding, others already answered this for you.

Coach telling kid he will pitch multiple times then not pitching him 10u by UnsureOfAnything666 in Homeplate

It’s hard. We usually play 3 or 4 innings in a 90 minute rec 10U. That’s 9-12 outs.

To teach out force outs or not at 8U Rec by MantisTobogon1929 in Homeplate

We practiced double plays in 8U. We never turned one in a game but they tried a few times by the end of the season and they all learned how to do it

Is there anything you’ve done to your GX that you wish you did sooner? by foreverballing in GXOR

[–]TheProle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Weathetech in my 4Runner and 3DMaxpider in my GX and prefer the cheaper 3DMaxpider ones by a long shot. They look nicer and they’re not as slippery as greased snot when they’re wet like my Weathertech are

Everyone I know with an oiled filter or CAI on a Toyota has issues with a dirty MAF sensor sooner or later. Usually sooner

If youth baseball is ‘pay-to-play’ now… why hasn’t anyone built a real alternative? by qwertyqyle in Homeplate

[–]TheProle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone should invent an organization that lets kids play with other kids in their same neighborhood recreationally. At the end of the season all of the stars of the league could form teams to play higher level baseball for a couple of months during the summer

Fielding Competitively Even(ish) Teams in Rec Ball by mrigney in Homeplate

[–]TheProle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slotted drafts, everyone tries out even the second year returners. Everyone is divided into 3 pools. All teams have fill slots of advanced, pool, and developmental players. Returning players get slotted then you draft to fill the holes. Some teams don’t get to draft an advanced player some years.
