I almost peed myself at soccer. Good thing a mom I know that lives near the field let me use her bathroom. Now I remember one of the many reasons why I prefer indoor sports, bathrooms.
DD’s gym is not making the team girls compete if they don’t want to this season. She wants to but only 1 other girl is a maybe and the rest are no. Fingers crossed that girl will do it. They will allow her to go alone if I pay for the coach but parents may not even be allowed to go in so she wants a friend.

But baseball is so freakin boring. It is... but little kid baseball is hilarious. Many laughs were had M’s first two years of tee ball. Little league is hysterical but I also enjoyed watching R play in high-school. And I like reds games. One team the boys play, the entire team carries their bat to 1st base. It cracks me up. M gets into this like track pose at every base. And runs for his life every hit. He really plays hard. This is a screen shot of a video, hopefully you can see it lol

I'm a baseball fan, but it's more the crowd and beer. I do not understand how people can sit down at home and watch a hours long game that drags on.

Asides from one or two games every couple of years tv is the only way we can watch! My H can watch for hours and hours and hours on end. I like watching, but it do like it more if there’s al little action or towards the end of the season. This year has been a complete disaster for the sox though 🤦🏼♀️.

You guys!!! What’s up with the baseball hate?! I thought we had a connection 😫! This is where I’m at! I’m a little scandalized. Love baseball; playing, watching as a fan in the stands and on TV. Don’t confuse this for me agreeing with your team choice Nam 😉

For the record- I like baseball/softball. I don’t mind watching little league and grade school because it’s more competitive and entertaining. MLB is only not so boring if you are at the ball park. We enjoyed the Braves game very much when we went.

I love baseball and love going to games. But, like vino, can not agree with nam2013's team choices.

We could (hypothetically) go to a game where both our teams are playing and sit besides each other on the same stand! It’s so family friendly. With soccer if here, that is not an option. Opposite supporters sit on either side of the stadium, derogative chants (against anything you can think of) are every day business and atmosphere can change drastically and turn violent quite often. It’s just not something I’ll ever take my kids to.

I like to go to hockey, baseball, basketball and football games but I can’t with watching them on tv. So boring. DH has played softball since before I knew him so I went to all his games before H was born. I paid attention about 15% of the time, and the rest was spent chatting with the other girlfriends/wives. If we go now, I spend the whole time chasing after the girls.
