Super Regionals

FSU lost the supers to a basketball school ?, what's that all about. You could see it coming as they could not win in the ACC conference tournament.

I will tell you what it is about.
These kids have been raised playing ball where no one kept score.
No one applauded a winner.
No one was proclaimed a winner.
Political correctness,don't hurt a kids feelings mentality.
None of them have a desire to WIN anymore.

They are taught that "Everyone's a winner."
Fishin' is the mission.
To fish, or not to fish, . . . those are the answers.

Yep, then when they get out in the REAL world, and find out you got to bust your nutz to be a winner, they start crying like a baby, and many wind up in the hoosegow!

Mike Martin baseball. Skill is one thing, competitiveness is another. #1 and 11 are great w/ skill, but its time for something new.
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. ~Chuck Clark

I agree with galantnole. Once they get there, they can't do anything with it.

They got beat by a better ball club hands down! I went to the game today and 7 of the 9 starters for Indiana were batting over 300 and 1/2 of em were batting over 350!! We just can't compete with that, them boys can flat out hit! In addition, we are very young...give em another season or two, they will be there eventually. A highlight of the day was Jaimes Winston (fsu future starting QB) come in and throw lights out for an inning and a half topping out at 95 :o

Not sure the FSU lose can be blamed on parenting...those kids want to win. Be serious. They're scholarship athletes at a top tier division 1 baseball program. Of course they want to win.
