  1. checking in - 100% mexican-american. my mom's family was raised in Palacios, but she was born in Mission. Both my grandparents were born in Mexican and eventually immigrated to Texas. Didn't know my grandfather left my grandmother in Mexican after they were married until he had enough money to send her and bring her over to Texas, eventually settling in Palacios. Dad was born in Alice with his parents also born in mexico before eventually settling down in mexico. most posters on here who know me call me the whitest mexican they know - I grew up in Sugar Land, and didn't really speak much spanish growing up, really having no desire to learn it. call it stupid, but growing up where I did, for some reason, I felt ashamed of being a "mexican". I tried to shy away from it, especially when I was younger. This really bothered me as I grew up in that all my grandparents only really spoke spanish and I had very little, to limited conversations with them and that sucks as I look back. My wife (also 100% mexican) had grandparents who spoke both english and spanish and I had more conversations with them than I did my own and that's one thing I regret. Now, I embrace everything about it and and want both my boys to be proud of their mexican heritage and accept it and not give a fuck what others thing. I don't really know the point of this post but just a little about me.

  3. We finished 3-1 last weekend in our first select tournament (7U), not too bad showing for a bunch of kids who've never played together. we only had 2 practices together before we started playing. it was hot as balls but I had so much fun and think the boys did too. I was fucking exhausted from throwing that much back to back but still wouldnt have wanted to be anywhere else than with those kids and my son. Chuy played pretty well - hit lead off for me (something he has never done, usually hits 2nd on his spring season), he's not the fastest kid but he wasn't afraid to be a lead off hitter. Back at it again this weekend and 2 of the next 3 after this weekend, hope we continue to get better.

  16. We finished up our regular season last Sunday, finished 3rd in regular season, lost our first game in a double elimination playoff and ended up going on a run to win 4 straight elimination games and put us in the championship round, fell a little short in championship...rainouts took away a lot of momentum but had a great season overall. Kids were 7/8U at Oaks Dads Club in Houston. Going on the run to secure second allowed me to become one of the 2 all star head coaches this weekend. Should be fun, dont think there will be as much pressure...we only had 1 practice as a team so really just putting this together and see what happens. So much fun, lots of patience though. Love coaching every minute of my son, he'll be 8 in August.
