Something @ESPN_ReceDavis tells me all the time: “I’m always proud of you because of who you are. When you do great things it doesn’t make me more proud, it makes me happy for you.” I’m always proud of you too, Dad. And this makes me happy for you. Best in the business.

I’m not a Fortnite guy, but these quotes can’t both be true. Just because the medium today’s kids compete through is new and unfamiliar doesn’t mean it’s any less competitive.

When you bean a hitter because he celebrated a home run he hit, you let him beat you in two plate appearances because he beat you in one. How is that toughness?

@Challenger_ST Part of the issue with stuff like this IMO is that your best athletes *usually* perform the best, because your best athletes are *usually* dawgs. This confuses coaches: “if my best athletes are doing it well, it must mean getting better at it makes you a better athlete!”

We like to end our players’ practices with some form of skill-based competition for several reasons: 1. Competition improves focus and intent, especially towards the end of the day when athletes can tend to be fatigued.

2. Competition in itself is a skill which can be trained (I think this is a @JasonOchart -ism) 3. It’s fun Yesterday’s hitting competition was relatively simple, and can be used without much tech. We split into two teams and awarded 1pt for a “barrel” and 2pts for a home run.

@Tstokey This was an unlock for me at Driveline this winter. Pulling the ball with true spin in the air is a skill. I used to lament being “unlucky” — felt like I barreled a lot of balls that got caught. Similar EVs/LAs have had better outcomes for me this year due to better ball flight
