I could write a long essay on the benefits of playing team sports . . . the current generation of girls playing team sports rather than being derivative ornaments (think: cheerleaders cheering for the boys) will do better when the girls become women. And, by the way, trying to win is a good thing, so long as the losses are accepted with equanimity. In life, we should try to win, so long as we do it fairly, within the rules and with a positive attitude.Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03323811980627840654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-48425318856272090232012-05-08T02:57:40.947-04:002012-05-08T02:57:40.947-04:00thery r so cutethery r so cutesnapZzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11548687884588604304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-47446377205961052072012-05-07T00:58:36.539-04:002012-05-07T00:58:36.539-04:00Oh the fun!

I was just their teacher and fan who traveled all over and watched them play. Where did that time go? Make sure she knows it's about the fun and friendships just as much if not more than the winning. (but winning is definitely more fun!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06003384586082557583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-56261668109727786712012-05-05T13:45:50.349-04:002012-05-05T13:45:50.349-04:00what could be better!what could be better!Ken Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09100185198750536244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-76529532862947102542012-05-05T01:06:31.294-04:002012-05-05T01:06:31.294-04:00Our boys played baseball for a while and it was th...Our boys played baseball for a while and it was the most fun I had watching any kind of ball game.
