Fantastic
This book is fantastic. It deals with the life of a little league manager and the trials and tribulations it brings. I normally love this guy's business writing, but this stuff is amazing. It gave me a good chuckle. Play ball with Paul!

Not Jim Carrey-ish, but amusing for an evening...
This book is a cute description of how a father attempts to coach his son's little league team while trying to a) not show favoritism to his son, who insists on copying a major leaguer's batting stance that makes him strike out; b) deal with outfielders who would rather collect worms and eat ice cream than play ball; c) decide whether to fire his drill sargeant...

This review is from: My Season on the Brink: A Father's Seven Weeks As a Little League Manager (Hardcover)
This book is a cute description of how a father attempts to coach his son's little league team while trying to a) not show favoritism to his son, who insists on copying a major leaguer's batting stance that makes him strike out; b) deal with outfielders who would rather collect worms and eat ice cream than play ball; c) decide whether to fire his drill sargeant assitant coach; d) handle rabid mothers determined that their son's team should win; and e) become the season champ without losing his mind!This book is a quick read, and has some insightful comments on the behavior of adults who are supposed to be the 'responsible' ones in the world of Little League. It's not a masterpiece, that's for sure, but I got more than a few chuckles. If anyone has ever played t-ball as a child, or watched his younger sibling's Little League game, then that person will certainly be able to identify with this book. |
