As a kid I played little league baseball. I was more into soccer but I enjoyed baseball as well. As an adult there is nothing more painful than attending a little league game.
I had to drive the kid I tutor to his game and watch it for an hour and a half. It was absolute torture. You have a bunch of 9 and 10 year olds who yell and cheer like they're big league players. The only problem is as soon as the ball is hit, nobody catches it. I mean the ball could be a light pop up and being heading directly into their mitt, and then they swat it away like they are being attacked by a fucking leper or something.
Another big problem with it the rules are turning these little bastards into pansies. Some leagues have a rule where if one team is batting and they get 5 runs in an inning the teams automatically switch sides. WHAT? If my team is kicking your ass you better believe we want to keep kicking your ass. When I was a kid they never pulled that shit. If you were loosing by 35 runs then it means you suck and should take up ballet or something. Or how about everyone gets a trophy? It's a real smack in the face if my team just kicked your ass by 35 runs and we have the same damn trophy. You gotta earn that shit! Otherwise why play at all? You should just lay on the field hocking loogies at the bees. Why not? You're all getting the same $.50 piece o' shit plastic.
