When Christians use the word “generosity” they mean “generosity with your own money.” When progressives use the word “generosity” they mean “voting for the government to forcibly redistribute other people’s money.”

Men, I will pay one of you $250k to play in the WNBA if you are able to make a team. I will also pay any of you able to qualify for one of the women’s tennis majors $250k and I will pay you $250k if you can make the US women’s soccer team. Get to work. Challenge issued.

Free Advice I talk to players and parents every day from all over the country at all different levels. I find myself saying the same things over and over and over again, because so many just don't know. They don't know what it really takes to be great at baseball and how many different levels are extraordinarily imperative. I want to take a few minutes and share some things with you that you may want to share with your son. -The most important thing to athletes is their bodies. Strength and athleticism are the prerequisite to success at a high level. Coaches are not recruiting weak and or out of shape kids. If your kid is genuinely chasing athletic greatness he should be on a "year-round" strength and conditioning program. Doing it for a few months at a time and then stopping because of a season is a waste of time. Strength and speed diminish very quickly when a kid stops working out. @strengthdebates on twitter is a great follow for strength and conditioning advice. weak and or out of shape is average or below average regardless of skill set. 1. It's not supposed to be easy. Competitive athletics are designed to be hard, uncomfortable at times and rewarding to the highest achievers. Comfort and ease are awarded to players that are physical, strong, athletic and highly skilled because of their intense work ethic over long periods of time. 2. When you think you're good enough, you're really not. Being one of the best in your town, city or your high school-travel team isn't enough. It's a big world and a lot of players are genuinely hungry for greatness. The minute you think you're good enough, you're beat. Players should always be striving to get stronger, more physical (faster, more athletic), more skilled and better at playing the actual game. 3. When you think you're working hard enough, somebody is outworking you. Some players (worldwide) are "all in" on being the best and they're your competition if you want to play at the highest level. Every player with high aspirations should be keeping a time spent log-diary. If players aren't spending a couple hours a day getting better, for approximately 300 of the 365 days per year, they aren't genuinely chasing athletic (baseball) greatness. There is no easy way to get or be great. It takes an incredible amount of time, effort, energy, sacrifice and desire. It's the lifestyle of the best of the best and they embrace and love it. 4. How long and far are you willing to go? The daily workouts, long tossing, cage sessions, defensive work, speed work, etc. must be very important to the player. They have to sacrifice a tremendous amount and be driven to the point of being considered weird or an outcast to others at times. 5. What are you doing that separates you from the competition? Players must continually evaluate themselves and their performances. The majority of players nationwide are incredibly average or grossly below average because they're doing nothing to separate themselves from the competition. What are you doing to separate yourself? Are you getting stronger daily, in better shape daily, arm strength improving daily with long toss, hitting velocity and taking swings daily, defensive work daily? When evaluating performances, it all comes back to what you're doing leading up to the competition. Some players get exactly what they've worked for, pitiful performances. Others get what they've worked for, great performances. 6. How much does it really mean to you? It's OK to simply want to be an average or good high player. It's OK to simply want to be part of a college team. Being a good high school player takes very little work. Playing low level college baseball can also be done at times with subpar work ethic, desire, sacrifice. But if you're legitimately chasing greatness, you must understand exactly how much it means to you. It has to mean so much to you that you're once again considered weird or an outcast at times. Players genuinely chasing greatness are different. -They consistently do the following 1. Get Stronger. Players should be on a year-round strength and conditioning program You don't need a personal trainer. You do need the willingness to work out every day on your own. 2. Get Faster and More Physical. You get faster by getting stronger, in better shape and sprinting on a regular basis. 3. Skill Work. Cage Work-Great hitters miraculously take hundreds of thousands more swings than their competition in their careers. You don't need lessons; you need more cage and machine reps (velocity-breaking balls) than your competition and remember your competition is worldwide. Defensive Work-ground balls/fly balls/angles/etc. Long Tossing-Year-Round Long Tossing-Throwing Program-Buy the Jaeger Sports Year-Round Throwing manual and follow it exactly. 4. Undersized No More. If you need to gain weight. Do it and stop making excuses. Caloric intake and pounding the weights is how you gain weight. Thinking a young athlete is going to gain weight eating 2500-3000 calories per day is fooling yourself. The goal should be 6000 calories per day. Simply stated, if the game means enough to you, you will get your body where it needs to be very quickly (year). Understanding the journey of professional athletes is something that is in my arena. I've signed and coached MLB players and spent decades educating myself on what it "really takes". The one thing I've realized is it takes a lot more than what the overwhelming majority of people want to believe it takes. Searching for shortcuts or the easy way always leads to short careers and disappointment. The kids that played at an incredibly high level were different. They thought differently. They acted differently. They were willing to sacrifice more, and they loved the process. They bought into the hard work part of the equation and had an incredible willingness to do the hard things that required effort and sacrifice. They knew they wanted it and refused to listen to bad advice. They looked at shortcuts as the enemy. Parents If you embrace your son chasing athletic greatness, I highly recommend you take some time and read a few books. 1. Outliers 2. Talent Code 3. Tipping Point

Trumpy Claus just gave us COLD HARD KASH for Christmas!

Wow. BRUTAL words for her fellow liberals from Democratic strategist @JulieRoginsky on CNN: “I’m going to speak some hard truths...We are not be party of common sense, which is the message the voters sent to us...When we address Latino voters...as Latinx, for instance, b/c that’s the politically correct thing to do, it makes them think we don’t even live in the same planet as they do. When we are too afraid to say that, hey, college kids, if you're trashing the campus of Columbia University b/c you’re unhappy about some sort of policy and you’re taking over a university and you’re trashing it and preventing other students from learning, that is unacceptable. But we’re so worried about alienating one or another cohort in our coalition that we do not know what to say when normal people look at that and say, wait a second. I send my kids to college so they can learn, not so they can burn buildings and trash lawns, right? And so on and so forth. When we put pronouns after names and say she/her as opposed to saying, you know what, if I call you by the wrong pronoun, call me out. I am sorry. I won't do it again. But stop with the virtue signaling and speak to people like they’re normal. There is nothing that I'm going to say to Shermichael that I’m not going to say to your or I’m not going to say to somebody else. I speak the same language to everybody. But that’s not what Democrats do. We constantly try to parse out different ways of speaking because our focus groups or polling shows that so-and-so appeals to such and such. That’s not how normal people think. It is not common sense and we need to start being the part of common sense again. Joe Biden is not responsible for that, neither is Kamala Harris. That is a problem that Democrats have had for years. I’ve been banging the drum on this for I don’t know how — probably ten years on this. We need to get back to being the party of common sense that people look at us and say we understand you. We appreciate what you say because you speak our language. And, until we do that, we should stop blaming other people for our own mistakes.”

Think about this If Trump won in 2020, he would’ve had a Democrat House and Senate More impeachments, no Senate confirmations, no bills passed, and possibly the end of the MAGA movement as an effective political force But now? He has the House, Senate, Supreme Court, a popular vote mandate, and an entire country that wants to clean up our elections, close our borders, deport illegals, and hold corrupt politicians accountable Sometimes I think it had to happen this way

Liberals are 🤡

Men and women should not be competing in the same event. Biological males do not have the right nor should they be given the opportunity to be eligible to compete in women's sports. This should not be controversial. Pointing out biology does not make you racist or a bigot. So if we are to actually follow the science what does science tell us about the difference in males and females? For example: Allow males to compete against female athletes in track and field could allow “many who would not be considered top tier male athletes” to replace the world’s most skilled female athletes. In 2017 alone, > 5,000 males, including some < 18 years old, ran 400-meter times that were FASTER than the PBs of U.S. Olympic gold medalists Sanya Richards-Ross and Allyson Felix. Policies that permit males to compete in women’s sports would do even greater harm to female athletes in a variety of other sports. Trained males have physical advantages over females: Males have greater height and weight and larger, longer, and stronger bones to larger muscles and higher rates of metabolizing and releasing energy. These physiological traits result in greater muscle strength; stronger throwing, hitting, and kicking; higher jumping; and faster running speeds for males, all of which create an athletic edge over females. Despite greater body weight, males have a roughly 15-20% jumping advantage over women. Look at the vertical jump in volleyball, one study found that on average male players jumped 50% HIGHER during an “attack” at the net than female players. If we were to actually, “follow the science” we would have biological females competing against biological females and biological males competing against biological males. Why is this so confusing and controversial when it’s basic biology and mathematics. Males are stronger, faster, and have well reported and well studied physiological ADVANTAGES over females. If this circus continues in another 10 years biological women will be robbed of earning scholarships, fair play, and worse off the safety and integrity of women’s sports won’t exist.
