A Connecticut youth baseball team with a phenomenal 9-year-old pitcher has been disqualified because its team is too good.Excellence is disruptive, disturbing, frightening. What we really want is to be nurturing.
Adults act like children. Real people, like the ironically named Peter Noble, have assumed the role of Handicapper General.
Is it any wonder such as these cling to magic wish words like "hope" and "change," or alternately, "experience," closing their eyes and wishing, instead of assuming the burdens of free people?
Why would rougher men respect invertebrates like these?
UPDATE: Cool! Thanks, HardCorps.
Part of the problem is the guy who is able to call the shots owns a barber shop and the team is sponsored by another barber shop. Yet this seems to not be the issue and in like government the evil doers circle the wagons to protect the guilty and sinful.
ReplyDeleteGreat example you posted up David. No one is safe from parasites of any kind that work their way into any system for personal gains.

ReplyDeleteAwesome trailer for the upcoming movie!!
My reading of this article, if you can trust the newsy, is that the real reason was the league's president works for a barber shop that sponsors another team that he wants the kid to play for.
ReplyDeleteI think this is more about corruption and the B.S. from Noble is just an excuse they think the sheeple will buy into.
