Cody walked up to his coach on Monday and said "It's too much. It's not fun anymore, and I'm not doing it"

Equal parts proud and heartbroken. He doesn't pipe up about much at all so for a 12yo to say that took some balls.

Coach has been awesome. We are going to play today after a week off training so it's a wait n see. Coincidentally? also got an email saying the team are dropping off one training a week, so maybe the little bugger is a changemaker.

Good luck to Jaxon either way.

Jax has been there before especially playing 2 sports. After a little time away and some time to think he’s always gone back.

I hope Cody rethinks it and decides to keep playing. What sport Adam? Cricket or soccer?

Tryouts?

You mean actually put forth some effort and try to be better than the other kids and actually EARN a spot on the team?

I am offended

This goes against the snowflake code of conduct and might result in hurt feelers all around

You are barbarians...

The sawzall master is making progress with the 372

I'll block up the rest if he can't get it.

Is he one of those people that borrows a saw, brings it back saying it won't cut, and when you choke it and pull the cord and it roars to life and he says "whats that noise?"

Lol…yeah tryouts. He plays 14u travel baseball that plays in some pretty big national tournaments.

He plays AAA travel hockey as well.

Cheers Chiz. He's always been a coaster, but once he crosses that sideline...

Soccer football.

The cricketer has been formally offered a place in our regional academy and doesn't know if she'll take it up.

I'm dying here.

Think the Furd can handle hauling a fishing pole or two?
Good luck with the fishes

Ferd made it to the creek and back. I caught no fishes. But my next door neighbor caught 3.

You should be proud, too many kids are being ruined by being forced to pursue high level athletics too early. Giving them some freedom to choice will keep them playing for life and often they come back after doing some other things and are even more committed in the future.

Lol…yeah tryouts. He plays 14u travel baseball that plays in some pretty big national tournaments.

He plays AAA travel hockey as well.

I’m the one that can’t hide money? I just listened to a podcast about travel baseball and how it costs, not to mention knowing how much hockey costs…

Glad to hear Jax hasn’t been pigeonholed into just one or the other all year. They need choice and variety to thrive…

Probably not the way he wants to get the rain, though

Nah he's no sawman

Reed Mfg Reed Hack Saw Blade 24'' | eBay

The extra blade depth (1 3/8”) and the specially designed, high-speed steel cutting edge allow a straighter cut. Wavy set and high tooth hardness yield longer life blade life. Portable power hack saw blades cut copper, steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and harder plastics like PVC and ABS.

I found him some falling saw blades for his sawzall.

He grew some balls today and ran my 372
His original plan was to climb it and chunk the whole tree down but the 021 wasn't having any
I think it's been 9 day's since he started on it
6 full sawzall day's.

Do you guys that cut hay ever get huge patches of wildflowers in your fields?

If you do get them do you just incorporate them into your hay cutting?

Us goat farmers do. More weeds the merrier. Cow people are probably similar. Horse people comb their fields and make sure not one blade of the wrong grass gets into the hay.
