One of my former players stopped by today. His son was born with no elbow and basically half a normal arm and just 2 fingers. The kid LOVES baseball and works hard to overcome that obstacle. He is 11 now and inspired me. Quit with our excuses and just be better.
A baseball dugout- a place where stories are told, plans are devised, games are won and lost. BUT, most importantly, where memories are made for a lifetime.
Dear @DIRECTV - a year ago- you lost @ABC in our area and it has never cane back. Now today- you lost @espn . Time to end 15 years with you. You obviously only care about money and not customers.
When a coach says “optional”- it usually means it is your “option” to get better or worse. It also means- it is the coach’s “option” to play you or not.
While it is NOT always pretty, NOR is it ever easy, BUT being a JUCO kid puts you a leg up in competition AND in life. A JUCO kid knows what struggles and adversity is all about and have already dealt with it.
David Bote went D1 out of HS. Was cut after the Fall and tokd he would never be a D1 player. Came to Neosho for the spring and was drafted right after we went to the JUCO workd series. He makes his MLB debut tonight. #neverquit
