Maybe, maybe not but one thing is certain is that the volume of abuse is probably a lot higher now. How many games did you play during a summer? Until I got to Legion ball, unless you made the all star team, you would play 15-20 games tops in the summer..There was no "tournament ball" back then..I keep reading this, but at least in small town southern Illinois, it is nothing compared to what it was when I was growing up. Keep in mind the coaches were generally smoking darts and enjoying a cooler full of beer during the game (summer ball not school).
