And as Peter reports - the level of ball in the select leagues is getting worse every year. I only hope it starts to phase out in the next few years.
David it's like anything else when something "NEW" opens up it catches on like "wildfire" and eventually comes "back down to earth"
In the beginning, the select leagues were the best ball around. Games under the 2 hour mark and real good baseball.
However, recently I too have noticed a severe dropoff in the talent pool. Even though they are supposed to be "select" leagues the games are not that good anymore.
"other" sports are replacing baseball at least in my area. LaCross is now a "huge sport" which takes away many a talented athlete.
The select leagues have burned themselves out and also Parents are getting tired of dishing out BIG Bucks to see their kid sit the pine.
Even Legion which used to be some of the best ball around has dropped off in the last couple of years.
