Sounds like you do it for the kids to me which is very good. That should be the only ones we think about while we are out there. Just because a few false people use a phrase doesn't make it untrue. If you want money and exercise there are other things you could do with your time that would get you more money and more exercise. I don't judge others and thier reasons for calling ball, but you had better look like you enjoy what you do while you are doing it and keep trying to improve. People that just show up for the money you can pick out preety easy and I have no patience for them. Not saying that is you. That has just been my experience. If you love it, you love it, whatever the reason. As for coaches and the like, I couldn't agree with you more.
I'll get off my soap box now.
