My 9 year old son is in Little League. Every batter that comes up the parents take turns with the same old words of encouragement, “be a hitter”, “good job”, “way to go”, “good hussle.”, etc. Enough is enough. Next game, I want to stand out with some original shit. Any suggestions?
LET THEM PLAY!!! LET THEM PLAY!!!
Screw with their heads. Stuff that makes absolutely no sense, like if your kid is up and no one is on base, cheer him on with “C’mon, base hit scores two!” Or you can start a scuffle in the bleachers by yelling “The pitcher is 14!” or “He doesn’t have a green card!”
Just make it fun for yourself. The kids are already having fun…
Last game I said, “Rally, Rally, the pitcher’s name is Sally!” That didn’t go over well.
“All your base are belong to us!”

My aunt once attended a football game where the opposing (very young, preteen) cheerleaders had made up their very own chant (I hope!)
“Who be saying we ain’t bad? Who be, who be?”
It would certainly be memorable.

We’re not nasty,
We’re not mean!
We’ll give a cheer
For the OTHER team!

"HE WILL, HE WILL ROCK YOU!!!
“We want a pitcher, not a belly-itcher”
Uh, those are good.
Give us the team name – we need some raw material here.
But in the meantime – how about “Excelsior!”

Anything the woman with Tourette’s says.
“Get a hit, son, or I’ll sell you for spare parts!”
“Strive to avoid bringing shame on the family name!”
“Lean into the pitch, son! Take one for the team!”
Not bad…
