  • 2022-23 NOMINATIONS: "Cone of Fame"

    Just to prove that not all news is about poor behavior and actions I thought I would start a opposite thread about uplifting behavior and actions in sports.

    Here is a good one to start it off with:

      OUT!!! Beaned batter walked to first, then got tagged by pitcher while he was stealing!

        While there is too much bad sportsmanship going on at all levels these days. I still don't want my player going over and hugging an opponent. There's already too much of that going on in locker rooms!

              Not sure I said or implied there wasn't. My bad if I did.

              I have 2 grandsons in high school that fit that mold (so far, so good anyways).

                Normally I would agree. But in this case with 11-12-13 year old kids I think this is a great story and a great example of sportsmanship.

                  I think Shocker_Power was just foolin'.

                  This was definitely an awesome display of class and empathy.

                        Aren't they all racist and have to be taught how wrong they are, by their schools?

                              Sadly, incognito mode no longer seems to work for me with the Eagle and I have to hope it pops up in one of those AOL links I find from time to time.
