6/7 year old football is serious business.

This is sick, but it can't touch the coach who paid a player to purposefully injure an autistic kid so the coach could play a stronger lineup. I think that incident set the gold standard.

I really, really hate attending my kids' games and practices. I've never been to one that didn't include shameful conduct by the so-called adults in attendence.

My daughter was in a basketball league last years 9 and ten year olds. The other teams's coach (who was undefeated at the time). Insisted refs were against her daughter and not calling fouls after they are down by 12 pts 2 mins left. This is not a very good league avg score maybe 15-8 etc. Anway makes her team walk off the court (so she doens't get a loss but a forfeit) and takes a swing at one of the refs. This was so stupid to see especially when in a league of just beginners. Guess it happens all the time.
