Now this is ironic. I typed up a post on this thread:
http://www.thesoftballzone.com/vb3/general-softball/55824-jenna-lilley-ranked-1-hs-senior.html
about this very thing. I didn't post it because,,, well it was pretty much decided by all that if you're good at softball you're allowed to talk like a sailor whilst playing it. To be fair I don't know this kid, I couldn't pick her out of a lineup. She may or may not do the things that were posted about her. I don't know nor do I care. If she does great, if she doesn't even better. What bothered me is all of the comments about what a big deal it isn't even if it is true.
The ironic thing is that my post that never saw the light of day there was a line about how I was patiently waiting to see how many of the same people who thought it was ok to talk like a sailor whilst playing softball liked the next Amanda Scarborough article that gets posted here if it says something about how it's not good to talk like a sailor whilst playing softball.
When you’re tweeting, think about the language you are using. No curse words or putting other people down or bullying. Anything negative only brings other people down who are reading it and makes YOU look worse.
Close enough?
