Man... it's freakin' T-BALL! Not the World Series.

What are we teaching our kids these days? Seriously...

I too do a double take when I read this - ALL OVER T-BALL?

Bowers could not be reached for comment. State police said she signed up her son for tee ball hoping it would help him overcome some of the social stigma he might face in the future.

Seriously, reading stuff like this makes me want to throw up. How can people be such assholes? It's an 8-year-old kid, for god's sake.

See, this kinda stuff just makes me want to not let my daughter do sports. Adults are crazy as hell.

These past few weeks I have seen some disturbing issues concerning children. The world is definitely heading to it's end. How can it not be close to the end when the "future" is getting all effed up? There is only way to go and it is definitely down.
