  1. He did get some academic scholarship also. So with the two combined his college will be paid for. The school is Kentucky State University.
  2. I am so proud of my son who did not give up after injuries and the disappointment of not making the high school baseball team all 4 years. He has now fully committed to play college baseball out of state on a full scholarship! We are so excited for him and can't wait for him to start his next chapter in life.
  3. I have used S&S a lot and have never been charged over $50.00. They were always quick to show too.
  4. Insane? Really? The kids that get burned out are the ones who parents push them to do something they don't want to do. Or maybe they just decided to do something different. My 11 yr old has played since he was 3 and year round since he was 5. He loves it and now is playing travel ball. It is up to the parents to watch how much they throw and not a let a coach abuse their arms. And the parents should listen to their kids if they don't really want to play. I begged mine not to play this season and take a break but he refused.
  5. My youngest started that young and could actually catch, throw and hit from both sides and he did it well. Nothing wrong with letting them start that young. To the OP you might need to wait until the fall. Mt Tabor offers summer ball but not sure if they have that age group.
  6. I came through there at 2:30 and was at the light at Due West when the police just got there to direct traffic off of Dallas Hwy onto Due West. Praying for all involved.
  7. Most likely a C130. I work next to Dobbins and they were flying like crazy today. They fly so low over my office everyday, all day long that you can see the pilot. The Raptor and the F16 also get very low. I haven't seen a C5 in forever.
  8. I agree All Stars is a joke (at least in some areas). But some parents might enjoy it and would be highly ticked off if their child was disqualified from playing because they filled in the Spring by playing in some travel tournaments and were not aware they were breaking the rules. My boys don't play rec league anymore. But when they did, I always thought it was so unfair with the stacked teams. It is no fun being beat 25-0, night in and night out and it is no fun killing a team like that too.
  9. There is suppose to be a draft and all star teams are suppose to be formed from one park and can't practice together before a certain date (I believe sometime in May). So a team that plays together all season as a rec team (even if they just add a player or two) should not be legally allowed to play. But it happens every year.
  10. Just and FYI- they might not be a travel team, but if your grandson is chosen as an All Star he could/would be disqualified because he played in "travel" tournaments. So did Dizzy Dean sanction Paulding Parks under one umbrella this year or is each park sanctioned individually?? That makes a huge difference on what is technically "legal" according to Dizzy Dean rules.
  11. Yes they in deed have moved on!! Glad my husband didn't kill them!!
  12. The are definitely bees. I will call him and see what I can find out. Thanks for your help!
  13. This is the best pic I could get. Almost positive they are bees. They have formed the hive around the tree branch.
  14. We have a child who is allergic I don't need them out there. I will try to take a pic but it is pretty high in the tree. It sounds like a mini tornado outside!
  15. I am pretty sure they are bees and not hornets. I need someone like now because I can't even let my dogs outside.
  16. Just got home and noticed one of our trees in the backyard is LOADED with bees. Like thousands of them. The hive is HUGE!!!! Husband is trying to spray them but it isn't working!! How do you get rid of them??
  17. I just ate a whole package (12) today at lunch time. YUM!!!
  18. I just went through there and the traffic wasn't bad.
  19. Yes. Both cars had a kids from the high school.
  20. Everyone please remind your kids to SLOW DOWN!!!!
  21. There is a very bad accident on Mt. Tabor Church Road just past Roberts going towards Bobo Rd. SUV is on its side in someones yard and the other vehicle is totaled. Avoid the area as it is already backed up.
  22. I have an 11" Mizuno you can have if that is big enough. It is broken in but yet in great condition with ALOT of life left in it.
  23. I believe I have a few in that size. Let me check with my son when he gets home. 11.5 seems big for an 8 yr old. My son will be 12 in July and he is using an 11.5. He is on the smaller size though. I will let you know what I have. Free of course.
  24. Husband said it was a black car maybe an eclipse or something similar. Young kid hit the back of a van.
  25. That is awesome. My husband adopted my oldest son when he was 7 (almost 11 years ago).
