Okay, in your asinine comment, God should have been capitalized, as you were referring to a specific god. You did not say "one of the gods' gift." You said "God's gift," and in that context, it is a proper noun.
Quit telling people in big letters to shut up, you know
nobody is going to! I have done more than my share of big time HS varsity, Legion, adult ball, whatever. I'm not above working LL games, as this past season I worked proves. The highest level I did this season was a few Senior Games. The rest were lower levels. But I got paid to do these games, and not just a hot dog and a Coke. LL Majors pays $38 to $45 dollars here, depending on the league. The reason is that they don't have anyone who will do it for free!
And judging by the amount of grief you receive working these games, as Tee would say, as a "glorified baby sitter," it's no surprise that there is a shortage of volunteers.
In 20 years of HS ball I didn't get as much crap thrown at me as in ONE season doing Little League! There is no way I would even consider working games for free.
