Klyd, how old is your son? Does he play legion (or junior legion)?
Freddie, my older son, who turned 16 in May, played senior teeners, which is just below Legion. He didn't try out for Legion as he's been dealing with a health issue, which seems hopefully to be resolving. He's playing Legion this Fall. My younger boy (14) played Teener, but is playing for a 16 and under travel team. He's always played in a league that was a year older than his age, but he does well. I don't know if he had a growth spurt in early July, but he's hitting the ball a lot harder and deeper since then. I think also that he's seeing faster pitching than his teener league offered, and if you get hold of a good fastball, you can really drive it. Next spring the boys will be a junior and freshman in high school and will go out for the respective teams. It's a very large high school, so making the varsity and junior varsity teams can be tough.

Roethlisberger rejects settlement in sex assault suit
Wednesday, September 09, 2009 The Associated Press
The attorney for Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is rejecting a settlement offer by a former Nevada casino worker who claims the Super Bowl winner sexually assaulted her.
Attorney David Cornwell says the woman's offer is bizarre.
The woman wants Mr. Roethlisberger to admit to the allegations, apologize and donate $100,000 to the Committee to Aid Abused Women, a Reno nonprofit organization that offers support to domestic violence victims.
In a statement today, Mr. Cornwell says the proposal insults women who have legitimately suffered from sexual misconduct.
The woman sued the Super Bowl-winning quarterback in July, accusing him of assaulting her in 2008 in a hotel across the street from a golf course where he was playing in a celebrity tournament.
Mr. Roethlisberger has denied the allegations.
this bitch is crazy, and i hope ben gets this thing out of the way ASAP

Serena Williams is completely devoid of a shred of decency and class. In the midst of losing her match on Saturday at the U.S. Open, she disagreed with a controversial call by one of the officials.
This was Williams' action toward the umpire who made the controversial call:
But Serena angrily confronted the lineswoman who made the call, dropping the f-word liberally and, getting in her face and waving her racket and later the ball menacingly, saying, "I swear to God I'm [expletive] going to take this [expletive] ball and shove it down your [expletive] throat, you hear that? I swear to God."

I just saw the same thing about Urlacher, Don Sicilia. That is too bad - one of the best players in the game. Between his injury and the horrific start to Cutler's season, I imagine some of the Super Bowl talk in Chicago has quieted down. It was just my luck - DirecTv offered a free weekend of "NFL Sunday Ticket" yesterday. We are selling our house and we had to be out from 1:30-5:00.  As cool as it was to see Brees hit Colston in the early stages of the NO-Detroit game, there were plenty of dud games yesterday, too. I probably will not order Sunday Ticket as there are enough games to view on network TV among the 1:00, 4:00, Sunday & Monday night offerings.
