Sports Talk CPC’s first blog,
Hi, welcome to our first blog for Sports Talk CPC. My brother and I grew up in a sports family. Pops is what we call our dad Steve who was very instrumental in our sport’s life until we graduated from high school. He made sure we were treated fairly by our coaches and our teachers in school. He coached us from the time we were eight and five years old until we were in the ninth grade. He started baseball teams for us and any neighborhood children who wanted to be on the team. They were named The Eastside Eagles sponsored by Joe England’s Realty company Eastside Realty. The two team’s coaches were Steve Baker, Stanley Flag and Daryl Swan. Other coaches were added as the teams grew. They played in city tournaments and many of the players went on to play high school baseball. The team was started in Evanston in Cincinnati, Ohio and continued for twelve years. They taught their players discipline, teamwork, respect and the importance of keeping up with our grades. They even went to the schools to check our grades. And lectures were constant about how we should carry ourselves as young men and women because our teams were co-ed.
Please leave your stories. We would like to produce a podcast that airs various stories about you growing up in sports or a family member growing up in sports. We would like for you to pass this blog along as well as our podcast Sports Talk CPC.
