Well unfortunatly had to come back to work today. Had a great weekend working with my 7th Va family and my brother on Saturday. I got to spend a great saturday night with Julie Halterman Kauffman and the kids. All I can say is the steaks and deer roast melted in your mouth. Finally yesterday I again helped my brother hang drywall at his place and then it was off to my first baseball practice in over 7 years. All i can say is its like riding a bike as this old guys showed them young bucks how you play the game and actually didn't need any help getting out of the bed this morning LOL! Anywas looks like a great week weather wise so it looks like I will be working in the yard after work all week. Sounds like fun to me. Have a good one everyone!

Lawyer Joke
An American attorney had just finished a guest lecture at a law school in Italy when an Italian lawyer approached him and asked, "Is it true that a person can fall down on a sidewalk in your county and then sue the landowners for lots of money?"

Told that it was true, the lawyer turned to his partner and started speaking rapidly in Italian. When they stopped, the American attorney asked if they wanted to go to America to practice law.

"No, no," one replied. "We want to go to America and fall down on sidewalks."
Football and Confession
Years ago, the chaplain of the football team at Notre Dame was a beloved old Irish priest.
At confession one day, a football player told the priest that he had acted in an unsportsmanlike manner at a recent football game. "I lost my temper and said some bad words to one of my opponents." "Ahhh, that's a terrible thing for a Notre Dame lad to be doin'," the priest said. He took a piece of chalk and drew a mark across the sleeve of his coat.
"That's not all, Father. I got mad and punched one of my opponents."
"Saints preserve us!" the priest said, making another chalk mark.
"There's more. As I got out of a pileup, I kicked two of the other team's players in the . . . in a sensitive area."
Memory Course
Seems that this old couple is having trouble remembering things, so they sign up for a memory course. The course is wonderful and introduces them to a technique called word/name association. They come home and tell all their relatives, friends, and neighbors about it.
Some months later, a neighbor approaches the man as he tends the garden.
"Say, Ed, what was the name of the instructor of that memory course you liked so much?"
"Well, it was...hmmm...let me think a minute... What's the name of that flower, you know, the one that smells so nice, but has thorns on the stems...?"
"You mean a rose?"
"Yeah, that's it...(shouting toward house) Hey, Rose, what was the memory course instructor's name?"

"Oh, goodness me!" the priest wailed, making two more chalk marks on his sleeve. "Who in the world were we playin' when you did these awful things?"

"Southern Methodist."

"Ah, well," said the priest, wiping his sleeve, "boys will be boys."
Three women arrived simultaneously at the gates of Heaven and were greeted by St. Peter. There will be a place for each of you once you have confessed your sins," he assured them, turning gravely to the 1st woman.
"I married one man, but I loved another," she admitted, blushing, "so I divorced my husband, and married the man I loved."
"Show her to the silver gates," St. Peter instructed a minion, and turned to the 2nd woman.
I loved one man, married him, and lived happily ever after," went her story. St. Peter directed her to be shown thru the golden gates, and turned toward the 3rd woman.
"I was a dancer in a cabaret," she confessed with a becoming blush, "and I pleased every man who came to see me, pleased them WELL for the right price."
"Show her to my room," said St. Peter...
Pregnant
Seven months pregnant, my hand on my aching back, I stood in line at the post office for what seemed an eternity.

"Honey," said a woman behind me, "I had back pain during my pregnancy. I was bedridden for four months because my baby was sitting on a nerve."
Then the man in front of me piped up....
"You'd better get used to it now. Once those kids get on your nerves, they can stay there till they're 18."

Folks, this is a status that I would REALLY like for every person that reads this to share. Even if you do not like me PLEASE share this because we are talking about the futures of ball players here.

Yesterday during a championship game a 12 year old was taken off the field in a stretcher. Why? Because he threw his arm OUT of socket! This is a senseless injury that could have been prevented. They said that all morning he was complaining of his shoulder hurting and he continued to warm up, throw and play. Aww...you will be fine, just get out there. In fact, we will put you in the outfield. Oh my gosh! What is a kid going to do when he is in a situation where he has to field it and try to throw out a runner? He is going to throw hard! Even worse, he is going to throw long which has been scientifically proven to be one of the worst things you can do to your arm!

Let me briefly explain this. There are torque forces on your arm when you throw that actually keep the shoulder from flying out of socket. When the muscles are completely fatigued, they CANNOT do their job! Therefore, now instead of resting a couple of days, the kid is out for months and going to have to go through rehab. A lot of money spent and the worst part to the kid, he can't play ball.

Yesterday I was very proud of my own son. He has Osgood Schlater's Disease in his left knee and it flared up just before the third inning and he was throwing the hound out of the baseball. He threw one warm up pitch, said it hurts too bad and pulled himself out. We did not argue it for a second, we brought in another pitcher. If he were to pitch with knee pain he is very likely to change his mechanics to lessen the pain. That is what the body naturally does.

To win at this age is SENSELESS! No one will remember it next year. We are trying to further their careers, NOT END THEM. Instead of pushing your kid for the win now, step up and be a strong parent or a strong coach and tell them that they are sitting the bench, regardless of the immediate consequences. Arm injuries are still on the rise even though we have science to help us out and the top two reasons are because of OVER USE & poor mechanics. Please be smart when your kids play and do NOT push them when they are hurt!
