So Big AF tried out for his MS team and the coach before the second day called me over and asked if I wouldn't mind helping out on the field as he's short-staffed today. I said sure no problem. He then asked if I wouldn't mind during the season being a base coach.... I paused and said, "assuming Aiden makes the team." He laughed and said, "Don't tell anyone but he's definitely on the team." As we chatted a bit more I stole a glance at his clipboard where there was a list of names and at the top of one block (I assume JV since he's 6th grade) was Aiden, ranked #1. That might've meant nothing but it might've meant something too.
So the last 2 months Aiden empirically ranked #1 in the Entire All-star and Rec organization AND was scribbled as a "#1" for something at MS....
This kid doesn't know how good he is or how good he could be
