Head Shake



I think I'm about to start agreeing with the Obama bashers. This country is going down the toilet, and this little boy is Exhibit A.

Listen, kid. If you wanted the ball, you should have fought for it. Don't let some adult chick in front of you beat you out. You give her an elbow in the ribs, push her aside like an ex-wife, and you take that ball.  That's what America was built on: Getting what you work for. You know. Always Be Closing.   But noooooooooooo.  Nowadays, all a kid has to do is whine like a little girl who lost her Barbie, and the whole world will bend over backwards to make sure he gets something for nothing.

Case closed. I'm moving to Costa Rica.

Oh No! It's a big ole sissy boy not getting his way.

You know mom or dad have seen that attitude before.

That crap needs to be nipped in the bud ASAP!

Blame the dad for that little attempt at extortion. He should have nipped it in the bud from the get-go. That reinforces the negative-behavior-gets-your-way attitude

And why are people considered monsters if they don't automatically fork over a found souvenir to the nearest little darling? The kid was probably happy with the ball he got from the usher. He just wanted a ball - didn't care where it came from. The adult fan is getting a payoff for (presumably) an entire childhood of team support

Nothing irritates me more than pouting or whining kids! I wouldn't have given the little darling anything but advice to stop the pouting asap.

Back around 1976 when I was a wee lad, I ran onto the field at Memorial Stadium after a Texas game, seeking Earl Campbell's autograph. As we crowded around the players, some drunken frat boy snatched my little orange hat with foam horns off my little head and disappeared into the crowd. There I stood, hatless and crying. Dad looked down, flicked the ashes from his unfiltered Camel, and said "Buck it up, son. That hat made you look like a sissy." Looking back on that, I realize now what a great teaching moment that was.

Hook 'Em.

Both kids wound up with baseballs anyway. That speaks well of the ball club.

2:25, What did you learn, not to stand up for yourself or that being emasculated by your dad somehow made you tough? My dad would have took a pull the Jimmy Beam from the flask in his back pocket and tracked down the frat boy for his teaching moment. Then he would have turned to me and said "f'ng teasips"!

That little brat needed a serious ass whippin!

What a way to reinforce bad behavior. Disgusting.

Yes, Barry, you are finally starting to realize we are living in a nanny state.

I agree kids today get their way much to often. If you say no they just tell you they are tired of all the negativity. Bust a series ass whippin 3:37? Now that would be a bad way to reinforce bad behavior. Just say no and mean it, no spanking required.

Skippy, Don't move to Costa Rica. It's great the way it is without liberal weenies taking it over and spoiling it for the rest of us like they did here.

Barry you have no idea what it's like growing up as a little boy in 2011......(see your post about how we don't know what it's like to grow up as "a poor minority in Dallas")

I think everybody has wayyy too much time on their hands! From the announcers in the game (because baseball is soooo slloooowww that there was more action in the stands than on the field) to your readers who have the time to psycho-analyze a little kid's reaction to not getting a ball, then getting a ball from the team).
I think we need to give a little slack to someone who is A LITTLE BOY AT A BASEBALL GAME!

3:21 - Dad remembered an important point: frat boys may be teasips, but at least they are men. They drink like men, they carry on like men, and they have body hair. He was right to teach the kid a lesson about the world of men.
