I’ve had some hardships over the past year and life can be a complicated mess but everyone has their ups and downs.
I got a big promotion a year ago but the benefits haven’t outweighed the negatives so I’m at a crossroads. It has brought me financial stability in these hard times though which I’m thankful for but I know I’m going to have to make a decision one way or the other at some point.
My son has become fully invested in baseball this year and the journey still continues. He went from Little League to All Stars to now travel ball and will pitch in his first 9U kid pitch game tomorrow so that’s very exciting. I’m a nervous wreck but can’t wait to see him perform. We have lived at the baseball field since April, and it’s been an honor to watch him grow as a person and player. I don’t think we’ll know what to do with ourselves when the travel season ends next month but basketball is next up for him and he’s excited for that. Hopefully this year I can get him into watching some KU games with me as he was curious at times last season.
With work - similarly I got a promotion about a year ago. Then immediately we were (are) and industry current administration is going after. Caused a ton of stress. Went to therapy to help me understand why I was hating work so much. It very much helped keep things in perspective. Just a thought if you haven’t tried it first before leaving.
Congrats on the baseball! Good luck to him pitching! I miss playing baseball at that age more than any other competitive sports I played.
My 6 year old came home singing this, which he picked up at school. I guess theres a clapping game that goes with it. I enjoyed the regional variations in the reddit thread.

I wonder if you guys have encountered any similar spoken word things (or other things) that varied greatly by region?
Looks like the women are about to hire a new coach. Dunno a thing about her, but she’ll have some pretty significant issues to contend with.
To me the most glaring fix is in the midfield. When my girl Rose isn’t on the pitch, it’s just stale. The midfield lack of creativity is hurting overall play. And of course that means the forwards (Alex in particular) are not being fed the ball in positions to succeed. I liked her better as a winger anyway, but maybe she doesn’t have that speed anymore. I did kinda like Savannah Demelo’s game last time she played. she was enthusiastic at least.
Anyway, times are a changing.

@wissox said in Ok so now here we go. Don't shoot the messenger.:
With about 25,000 in attendance in Houston tonight we don’t have to worry about being the conference attendance laughingstock anymore.
pretty sad - -It was pretty bare
Yea, TVs are now just computer monitors. Simple as that.
Turn on TV, scroll to entertainment vehicle of your choice, press a button.
It’s different, but everybody knows how to do that now, even old people. some old people. maybe not my mom. i tried to get her set up up on YTTV, and that didn’t go well!
@jayballer67 we know you aren’t trying to get the clicks. The YouTubers most definitely are. And lots of other idiots are as well.
It’s hard to sort out the noise from the signal because the internet economy rewards both equally.
@AsadZ A sign of who was on the roster. At the same time, showing just how much basketball has grown all over the world.
I really wish there was more incentive for our best players to play in these international events.
