In the day that we are in now with the sensitivity and harassment stuff, we had to have a starting point. |
It is a very controversial thing because there is a fine line between what's appropriate and what's not. Our committee didn't have an easy job. One person interprets 'air ball' and 'warm up the bus' as very positive and a fun thing. Another person says it's offensive and our kids get their feelings hurt. |
Most of our parents of little leaguers don't even know the rules. They question calls and sometimes sound like idiots because they are inappropriate and don't understand. |
Nobody wants to see empty seats, because our student athletes deserve the crowds we used to have 20, 25 years ago. We don't want to do anything to hinder crowd participation. |
We all have to retrain ourselves. |
