was at tryouts today, figure i would delete the name as a haha to the Bear's rule of "though shall not insert team name here" rule...here are some quick observations..i'm sure a casual observer will realize where the statman was lurking this saturday morning

10. Tangy Mike wears P.E./gym shorts to tryouts..and speaking of shorts, apparently the du jour shorts 2 wear for the dads out there are the plaid/preppy almost-pajama shorts shorts. Dare I say coming to a coaching shorts in the near future--Lasers Plaid?
9. The cut-open, flappy mid-drift once a t-shirts shirts that accentuate the rainbow colored sports bra is simply not attractive..is that what our 10yr old girls have to look forward to? and what dads let their DD's leave the house dressed that way?
8. ----- nation will not be hosting any bar mitsvah's/birthdays/quinceneara's nor early christmas celebrations for wgman;&:lmao:
7. Seeing old friends from this summer's team is still bittersweet. You cheer on their every move regardless if they end up in the same dugout and realizing some wont be playing in the same dugout and that u wont be yelling their name out when they are on deck kinda takes the fun out u
6. The ------ white coach can sure hit!
5. You can actually go 3 hours playing in Whitehall without rain being involved.
4. Even if u see packaged buns doesnt mean that concessions will be sold
3. Rangling girls in numerical order based on their marathon-like billboard clipped number is like herding cats. I figured this was part of the tryout. U can't line up in order, see you later!
2. Girls really should hustle more when u miss the ball in the infield or outfield. Seriously? ur gonna dog it at ------ tryouts?
1. Never keep ur head down when Bink is hittin the ball. Dude, u hit the statman on the meaty (well, any part of me is meaty) part of the thigh! I need Obama-care just leaving...:rolleyes::lmao:

good luck to all the participants and parents. Tryouts sure are fun

Statman you kill me.

Speaking of shorts, did you see what the _____ _____ coach was wearing? Guess what - plaid, almost pajama shorts. I am staying with the grey PE issued variety.

By the way, what's the over-under on the number of tryout attendees who left without giving back the marathon-like billboard. My guess, 3...

I showed my dd this thread. I absolutely refuse to let her wear those shirts (she does have many now) without a tank top that covers her whole midriff outside of my house!! :lmao: She was not happy to see that many people (not just mom) agreed that they weren't very flattering!! ;&

I agree sad, and I do not believe High Schools let them wear them as well with dress codes they have.

It looks trashy ladies... Was at the Jersey shore last weekend with our 16 yr old nephew, typical HS football athlete and 16 yr old boy, even he said something that would make his mom proud on what someone was wearing. A girl walked by with a pair of shorts that said hooker on the rear, he said "What ever happened to a girl's self esteem" or something like that.

Even made his Aunt proud of him.... Girls it doesn't look good, that's all...

I have no idea what you all are talking about. Can someone post a pic? Something public or block out the face.

I agree, trashy looking. What makes it worse is when they throw in the short-shorts.

no matter what you tell the girls and parents at the end of a tryout - they will hear and repeat something else.

you can look at 113 girls in 3 days....

It hurts to tell terrific young ladies they didn't make the team... (but then I knew that one already)
