I have missed you guys!

The more things changed:

• We have a vaccine, but no gasoline.
• Biden is now President, although they're supposedly still counting votes in Arizona.
• Tom Brady sold his soul to the Devil (must of been at that rest stop in Georgia on his way to Tampa) and won another Super Bowl.
• The Mets DL is bigger than their active roster, but they're somehow still in 1st place.

The more they stayed the same:

• The "HS Ball" threads got a late start this season, but still made a strong run as always.
• There's still coaches who think 12U girls who only throw a FB/CU are "behind the curve".
• There's still parents who think the road to DI/P5 starts with their 12U's repertoire of fastball, changeup, curve, drop, screw, rise, and that magical mystery pitch with the bullet spin that can do whatever the announcers says it does (replay be damned).
• And I still can't figure out the difference b/w swinging one-legged vs. two-legged, and which one is better.

My favorite is fastballs don't work at 14U.

Are you a 70s kid

... and what long, strange trip it's been.

Technically ... although I was too young to have enjoyed the 70s. Really more of an 80s kid who hung out with hippies.

Coach, nothing she is throwing is working.
