Don't Let Anyone Take Your Joy Away: An inside look at Negro League baseball and its legacyIn this personal history of the Negro Leagues, Stanley Glenn gives an intimate and in depth look at the daily trials and tribulations of a Negro League Baseball player. With wisdom, wit and perspective, Glenn recalls the indignities he and his teammates suffered during the days of Jim Crow, a time when they were denied gas for their vehicles or even a decent place to stay as they went "barnstorming" around the country, playing against and alongside

In this personal history of the Negro Leagues, Stanley Glenn gives an intimate and in-depth look at the daily trials and tribulations of a Negro League Baseball player. With wisdom, wit and perspective, Glenn recalls the indignities he and his teammates suffered during the days of Jim Crow, a time when they were denied gas for their vehicles or even a decent place to stay as they went "barnstorming" around the country, playing against and alongside some of the greatest baseball players of all time.

Glenn's story illuminates the strength and determination of black ball players. In spite of the forces against them, they persevered for love of the game. And despite the adversities these men faced, they enjoyed the journey and came away with treasured memories and lifelong friendships. Through his blend of humorous anecdotes, inspiring words of wisdom, and colorful imagery, Mr. Glenn wonderfully conveys the bittersweet paradox that was the Negro League Baseball experience.

I would buy this twice!
Style: Sport, Size: 12in
This Chuckit! Dog Ball Launcher 12M Sport is the perfect product for the dog park! It makes games of fetch so much easier and more fun — the long handle gives great reach, so I can launch balls super far without even bending over, and our dog goes absolutely wild chasing them. It’s comfortable to hold, works smoothly with 2.5" dog balls, and really saves your arm and back if you’re doing a lot of throwing. The design is sturdy and reliable, so we can play for longer without worrying about it snapping or wearing out. If you spend time at the dog park or love playing fetch, this launcher turns a regular game into something even better — our pup gets twice the exercise and we get to enjoy every minute of playtime!

Caution can cause addiction
Style: Sport, Size: 12in
My dog has become addicted to tennis balls because of this! She sees the blue handle and she immediately loses her mind! I love it because I don't have to bend down as far to pick up the ball, which is amazing after 2 back surgeries.

12 " too short, no direction.
Style: Sport, Size: 12in
I got the twelve inch handle. It is too short and does not flex enough to release ball in right direction. Its almost impossible to aim and doesn't sent the ball far enough.

Perfect for offseason beach days
Winter in New England can be tough for a myriad of reasons, one being the difficulty in ensuring your high energy Labrador retriever is expelling enough energy and not climbing the walls. Luckily, this dreary time of year also means the beaches are open to dogs, and this toy is the perfect tool to make sure your furry friend gets their steps in. It is pretty easy to use and not too large for toting to the beach as it folds in half. The thrower itself is sturdy, although the included ball is a bit flimsy. Backup tennis balls are definitely recommend for public areas anyway. Once you’re done, you can bang or brush the sand right off for easy cleanup as needed. If you have kids, you get double bag for your buck because you can have them take turns throwing the ball or chasing as well. Definitely worth it’s value to tire everyone out and have some fun doing it.

Thrower great, ball not so much
Our german shepherd dog really loves this fetch thrower. I appreciate the fact that it can be folded when not in use, which makes it a lot more practical to store. Once you get the hang of it, you can chuck balls REALLY far, and with pretty great accuracy too. I am deducting one star because I feel like the included tennis ball is just, trash. It's already broken and we've only been playing with this toy for a couple of weeks, and not for very long at a time. We will be purchasing new tennis balls to continue to play with the launcher though. Overall it's a solid toy and our dog really enjoys playtime with it.
