The saga continues: taking legal action

The league should tell the whiners to take their fragile little johnnies and have them play communist kickball, where they can all run around the field and no one can be embarrassed about not actually having any playing skill, and they can end the season with their participation ribbon on the wall and their delicate self-esteem intact.

Except for some side-bars to this story:

The pitcher at the center of this was apparently asked to join the previous league champion team before the season, but instead joined another team. If the league is "just for fun" why is there recruiting?

Second, a league official at the center of the move to ban the kid is the manager of the team that asked the kid to join before the season.

Third, if the team is disbanded, this league official's team (surprise) becomes the champion.

This isn't about a kid being too good, it is about adults playing hardball with a "just for fun" 10U baseball league.

Absolutely shameful.
