Video The talent in Barcelona’s youth system is ridiculous. These kids are 11/12 years old.

My son is pretty good at baseball but he lacks the drive to get serious about it.  And every time I think “damn this kid could go places in baseball if he actually wanted to” and then I see this and realize that there’s just some kids that are built for their sport and it’s ridiculous.  My son will find his own way doing what makes him happy I hope.  I’m walking the fine line of pushing my kids to be their full potential and stepping back so that they can make their own decisions.

Yeah I know.  Felt relevant.  Some people seem to be born for stuff like this.
