Thank's for your advise, I did as you suggested and Verrrry slowly read the original post, especially the part that says, "A friend
who coaches little league asked me this scenario".
I understand that often little league coaches can be an enormous PIA (pain in the ...) but in reality many of them are learning too and we have an opportunity to steer them in the right direction with the answers we give to sincere and serious questions.
If you think the question is neither sincere or serious, you can always deal with that differently. We are all borne with the inherent talent to be a smart a.., the skill some learn better than others, is how and when to apply that talent to be effective.
