9 year old kicked out of little league for being "too good at pitching"

Fathom, I agree entirely. Everyone in this country is "perfect" and "special" so no one wants to see little junior strike out or lose a game or ten. Helicopter as well as just shitty parents need to fucking learn that winning AND losing at youth sports is part of life and builds character, especially helping a child deal with adversity.

I think what's even more ridiculous is your sister's soccer league. You ARE serious, right? If so, that is the biggest crock of shit I have heard in a long time. 4 kids per team with no goalie?! Exactly what the hell is that supposed to teach? I'm pretty much at a loss of words on that one. Wow.
