Softball country club

Posted by Ty Webb on September 5, 2026, 10:15 am

Looking at some of these 2028 commits posts and noticing that they all seem to live in million dollar houses.

Remember when lots of the best athletes in kids sports came out of more modest/rougher backgrounds?

So either well to do kids have become more athletic - or this sport has gotten so damn expensive that its now a country club sport.

Training, lessons, team fees, travel. It is all tied to income now. Even in HS, the schools with higher median incomes are the tougher teams now. The low income schools arent even competitive anymore

The ones I see are blue collar kids. Good try though.

Oh stop being butt hurt. All these sports are all about the money now. Yes we know many blue collar kids go on to play but money talks.
