Wicked Local West Roxbury has the latest on the strife-torn pride of the Parkway, which has now run up $9,000 in legal bills trying get back in the good graces of the national Little League.

Talk about rules. It's a wonder anyone bothers to put together an official 'little league'.
What is this, Baskin-Robbins?

Thirty-one board members last year? Do they even have that many kids in the league?
I'm assuming there was a vote to spend nine grand on the lawyer to interpret the by-laws. My interpretation would be that you start from scratch, and all of these individuals should be barred from ever serving on another board in their lifetimes. That would be a good start.
It would be hard to underestimate how big LL is in WR

Other neighborhoods have annual neighborhood parades. The only parade in West Roxbury is Opening Day for the Parkway Little League, when all the players march from Centre Street to the Baker Street fields.
So maybe all that power went to their heads?
Surprise!

The single biggest problem with youth sports is adults.
