I Need to Take Pictures

I just wanted to write about how amazing Lisa is.  I was not going to enroll Lisa in Rec this year but one of the coaches asked if I would help coach and asked if Lisa would play.  I told him that Lisa will miss a lot of games but if he was ok with that I would help.  Well the first few games we lost 21-3, 19-1, 18-2, etc.  Last night we just beat the first place team.  It is amazing how one player can turn a team completely around.  Lisa is the only player I know  of that can do that.  She kills it in four areas: 1) Her teammates love her and she makes them better.  I'm told by the parents that they have an energy when Lisa is there.  2) Lisa killed them catching, making double plays, and other amazing plays throwing girls out.  3) Lisa killed the ball hitting generating a ton of offense 4) Lisa kills it pitching, no one can touch her.  It is fun playing on this team because there are five teammates from the ward, so they are all friends.  Her YW Pres was there yesterday to cheer her on.  The only thing I don't like is the sportsmanship.  Kaysville is ine of the worst.  I take a lot of abuse.  The coach last night kept jawing at me "How is comp going for you" in a real derogatory way.  Finally I said to him " I won't be seeing you at high school next year"  basically stating that his kid sucks and that he is narrow minded making such a big deal about a little league game.  When I said that he lost his temper and chaos ensued.  Parents were yelling, the ump came over to break things up.  Softball coaches are white trash.  If you find a good coach it is important to stick with it.  Kaysville is bush league.  Lisa is lucky she has a good coach on Sting and that her teammates are so nice.
