    Occasionally, saber nerds come out of their basements long enough to make children. And sometimes, those children play Little League baseball. Little League may only vaguely resemble “real” baseball, but that doesn’t mean we can’t analyze it.

    There might be a strip club that is willing to help out...

    I don't think we had bathrooms (just went in the woods) or a snack bar at my little league games and we got along fine, but you gotta have at least a cap and a t-shirt or something for a uniform.

    I'm glad they do these days. One night, during a summer league game against Verona, I had a bout of crippling stomach cramps, and had to run back as far into the woods as possible to let loose with the resultant diarrhea. Luckily, I wasn't starting that day (and almost never started).

    This story pops up every so often in my local newscasts. People are broke, they have access to money, they think they're too smart to get caught, police come to their door. And they wind up trading several years of freedom for a few thousand bucks (which they have to pay back, of course). Crazy.
