Little League Baseball Cracking Down On Rowdy Parents
In New Jersey, they’re getting tired of the rowdy parents at their kids Little League games! We’ve all seen the videos on line of parents yelling at the umpires. Some parents take it to the next level. Some run on the field and get in the faces of the umpires. Well they want to put a stop to it!
NJ Little League is implementing a new rule, if a parent starts being rowdy and out control, they will be forced to leave the game and not be allowed to return unless they become umpires!
The parents will need to umpire three games themselves in order to return to the stands as a spectator. The parents don’t want that responsibility, so they’re toning it down at the games.
League officials say 99% of the parents are now following rules and not arguing with the umpires, who volunteer to do the job!
This rule should be a nationwide implemented rule for all of the country! Do you agree with this? We have more on this story and other weird and wacky stories in today’s Other News!

7 Things Las Vegas Should Know About The Oakland Athletics
So the Oakland Athletics have signed a binding agreement to buy land to build a ballpark in Las Vegas. But before we go any further, we give you seven things you should know about the Athletics if indeed they move here.
Now keep in mind the agreement they signed just says, “yes”, we agree to buy some land in Las Vegas that we might build a ballpark on it. And maybe, if we build the ballpark, we might move and play there!
It’s all apart of a long process on moving a professional sports franchise from one market to another. The land they are talking about is located at W. Tropicana and Dean Martin Drive. A little less than 50 acres of land that would be the site for this 35,000 seat ballpark.
If you think about what used to be there, you remember the Wild, Wild West Gambling Hall & Casino? Well, that was one of the establishments included on the site. Across the street, a row of fast food places that includes McDonald’s, Jack In The Box and more. Cha-ching for them right?
Well who knew this corner lot would be worth a little over $1 billion someday? Station Casinos did, that’s who thought it would be worth $1 billion! Maybe that’s why they bought the Wild, Wild West Gambling Hall & Casino
The Wild, Wild West Grambling Hall & Casino opened in 1974 on that corner and closed last September. Formerly known as the King 8 Hotel & Casino, Station Casinos refurbished the place in 1998 only to tear it down 24 years later.
So this land deal is pending, however, it does increase the chances of the Oakland Athletics moving to Las Vegas. So with that in mind, here’s a bit of history about the franchise. Find out 7 things we think you should know by scrolling down…and enjoy!
