In the day that we are in now with the sensitivity and harassment stuff, we had to have a starting point.

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.

We all have to retrain ourselves.

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.

She cried five times that day. We started counting.

We wanted to have the ceremony on the first day. We want to recognize last year's team and then move on with the new team this year.
