These signs should be mandatory at all Little League fields

Rule 6: Take a chill pill.

Parents get wild at Little League games. As long as parents have been living vicariously through their children or installing latches on the doors of their homes, they’ve been known to get a little rowdy. Heck, when I was in Little League, my grandmother was kicked out of the dugout for giving an umpire an untoward amount of Oklahoma sass.

So every once in a while, someone needs to remind parents to chillax, or at the very least, dial it down a skosh. Which is where Holyoke city councilor James Leahy comes in.

Well done, sir. Let us make this happen everywhere. Chill out, parents. You’re embarrassing your children.
