THIS IS REQUIRED READING FOR PARENTS AND COACHES ALIKE

A mother was making a breakfast of fried eggs for her teenage son.
Suddenly the boy bursts into the kitchen.

Careful! CAREFUL!! I said be CAREFUL!

You NEVER listen to me when you're cooking! Never! Turn them! Hurry up!
Are you CRAZY?

Have you LOST your mind? Don't forget to salt them. You know you
ALWAYS forget to salt them. Use the salt. USE THE SALT! THE SALT!'

The mother stared at him. 'What's wrong with you? You think I don't
know how to fry a couple of eggs?'

The son calmly replied, 'I just wanted to show you what it feels like
when I'm trying to play baseball.'

I still think the best are the track parents that yell "RUN!"

This was great. My son just wants me to yell "Do what you do" NOTHING ELSE. I get in trouble later if I say other stuff. OOPS

He also bought me a shirt that says...

"A Baseball game is just a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings" He says it fits the look on my face at close games.


Track meets were better on my nerves, two minutes, you're done, let's go eat!!!! but I do remember yelling "Pass em & leave em" and RUN and I also remember listening to a mother at the state baseball tournament yell into a bullhorn for the entire game, over and over and over---LETS GO TIGERS LETS GO. I admired her loyalty but she needed some new cheers really really bad.

I always liked:

"You need to throw strikes, son." or "Swing at good pitches."

Really, thanks for that nugget, Mr. Genius Dad who sucked anyway & probably never strapped on a jock his whole life. Appreciate the help. Let me try that.

(my parents never said much of anything - just cheered, referring to people in general at games that I have heard then & now)
