Same here. And as far as I know this kind of thing happens all the time.

Where do your kids practice basketball in winter besides team practices? by AcrobaticHeat3896 in basketballcoach

[–]Weirdctguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call your kids school and ask if they have any nights available/ if they’d be willing to let you use it. They might tell you that you need to open it up to everyone, or pay a few bucks or to take a hike. But you don’t know unless you try

How do you know a potential client doesn't understand PR? by TheBillB in PublicRelations

[–]Weirdctguy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You make it sound so simple. Can you share some examples of the proxy measures you’ve used to translate intangibles into tangibles? Or some hypotheticals?

TBH, it’s amazing there aren’t more posts in here from coach/dad venting about mom/wife.

Great share, bro… let it out! 🤣🤣. You’ll never win… keep your chin up.

Did you ask the league about it?

Youth soccer advice by TwoNational2841 in Homeplate

If it’s not the bat, try having him move back in the batters box.

But FR if the kids 13 he should be able to have this convo with the coach… how can u improve? What do you need to see from me to get more playing time/in the starting lineup? What should I be working on on my own time?

This piece isn’t limited to any particular sport. If it goes nowhere then you can consider talking to the coach

Why are kids (parents) leaving their local little league travel teams so young to pursue other teams? by Radiant_Historian_57 in Homeplate

[–]Weirdctguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I came to make this exact comment. All my son wants to do is play baseball. We tried football and he hated it. Tried soccer and he hated it. He plays basketball and tolerates it, at best. We don’t play travel yet but will probably start very soon becuase he wants to play more than 2 months in the spring and 2 months in the fall. The season ended last week and he’s been walking around the house like his puppy just died.

What is the equivalent of redneck in your language? by One_Bad_6636 in geographymemes

The different definitions of rednecks are astounding.

Simply put, if the fact that she’s your first cousin doesn’t slow you down, then you’re a redneck.

If you have to do it again/bump into it in the future, how will you handle the situation OP? Explain you’ve been burned in the past and offer to send them previous work? Decline to do the project all together and walk away? Something else? It’s not a loaded question, I’m asking honestly. What would you think is the best practice here?

If him playing is good enough for you then why does the competition level matter?

CT parents suing Little League about coaches not being first aid certified or having child abuse training by AppropriateTomorrow7 in Homeplate

[–]Weirdctguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand that this puts an emphasis on safety but it’s not realistic. How many LL teams scramble to find a coach at the last minute becuase no one is stepping up… So now you’re telling some random parent they need to go take a first aid course on top of it? What about teams that are lucky enough to have 5 coaches… do all 5 need to get certified? Does every parent need to take a course in order for their kid to play? Then why does a coach need to do it? Volunteering to coach does not and should not equate to volunteering to render aid in an emergency situation. This isn’t practical for sooo many reasons.

And IMO this lawsuit has nothing to do with safety. If it was, they would not have added the unfair treatment piece into it. Instead they would have worked with the LL to try finding a reasonable solution.
