Are we to the point where major league ballparks need nets along first base line?

Damn I was just thinking about that this morning when I was eating breakfast.
Hopefully these kids will have some amazing parents and keep them out of harms way.

Most of the kids take their gloves and jump into harms way. I know I did...

Maybe all fans should have to wear a helmet with a face mask.... like girl softball players do! Oh wait...... what about pucks coming over the glass in hockey? This is all of a sudden a a scary life we all lead!

They could make all the hitters use whiffle ball bats?

In college I worked as a ticket taker for our local 18U hockey team (or whatever age it is). First night a puck broke the glass in the rink and a girl in the first row probably 10 or so got cut up really bad, blood everywhere.

But no, we don't need a net. Pay attention when you are at a game

Hey Chop. You're the Man!

This is brand new news. The girl just graduated. This is beyond my field of bullcrap understanding. I thought it had grown pretty large over the years!

And Matty and all..... Did you see the highlight on ESPN a couple nights ago? Some group of grown men (college kids I think) where playing whiffle ball and had an umpire lined up over in the hole between short and third.

Log story short.... batter hits and line drive and hits the ump in the nuts. Many could probably see that coming. Drills the ump dead on and he just crumples over in pain..... Kind of like LeBron in a hot gymnasium. (ha)

I hope we never become such pussies that we need to install those


I agree.

Reason I brought this up was because I just bought my dad first row seats for a Reds game behind the dugout for fathers day and the seller made us sign waivers saying we were sitting there at our own risk
