    Youth sports has jumped the shark.

    I've seen no less than a dozen AI-generated "commitment" graphics on social media lately for kids who are joining/made some travel org team.

    The moms around here are as bad (or worse) than the dads.

    Any time things go bad on the plantation, the excuses about safety and toxic rivalries come out. They really are a feather-soft bunch.

    OT: Whiskey Myers and the Black Crowes

    We got invited so took the bait and went. Glad I did, we had a good time. I don't follow WM heavy, but they played most of their stuff that I knew and I thought they did well. BC like mentioned left off a few of the greatest hits, but I think they sounded fine. I've seen plenty of bands that...

    Starkville people…..

    Bingo. Starbucks (any most nationwide coffee chains) are pure garbage when it comes to straight black coffee. Like mentioned already, give me a QT coffee or any gas station that brews Community.

    Starkville people…..

    There aren't any Publix's west of Alabama. It's a regional chain. Don't appear to be any Dutch Bros east of Texas. Not just a Mississippi thing.

    Feeding opposing players in LFL

    Starkville Travel ball coach/umpire embarrassment

    It's a wonder how there were even enough youth baseball players to fill college/minor league rosters back in the pre-travel ball days**

    Starkville Travel ball coach/umpire embarrassment

    Sadly, you are right, but it doesn't have to be that way. It's been mentioned several times in this thread, but the bulk of most of these "daddy ball" travel teams and Single A/Double A travel teams are made up of borderline kids that would be good but not great if all kids played rec ball like...

    OT: what are the most random things you watch on youtube?

    Pickleball paddle reviews Hunting videos (mainly turkey) Mr. Beast videos and a bunch of other stuff with my son

    This is a pretty good primer on what's wrong with youth sports

    This is my issue. Money enters the picture and everything thinks they have to do travel ball in order to make high school team. All of a sudden, rec leagues are dying left and right because every kid moves to travel ball because "that's what you have to do to make the team". Next thing you...
