Here is a little info that I just found out last night.... BELIEVE me... had I known earlier I would have "spouted" off at the mouth more than what I'm gonna do here.... I want your opinons on this one....

Our coach calls a kid from our team and tells him.... "Hey... you made the all-tourney team. They called me and you need to be at Elkhorn tonight for the championship game to receive your trophy. If you need a way, I'll take you".... Well, needless to say the kid's parents take him to the game but for what?? NOTHING!!!! He did not get his trophy and was not recognized as a member of the all-tourney team! Personally, I think they should have been better organized with their "calling" tactics and if the kid hadn't made the team.... they should NOT have called and told the coach he did. I don't knock any child for this honor... BUT.... there are a couple that made the team that are not the same calibar player this child is. NOT saying he is the next Iverson or anything like that but this kid got his feelings hurt.... ADULTS did this to him.... NOT other kids!!! PITFUL!!!! I know if it were my child (which, btw it isn't) I would have raised 7 kinds of hell!!!!!!! NOT for a trophy.... but for the hurt this child endured!!! I feel that this was wrong and someone should be held accountable!!! Sorry for the venting but I just had to get that out!!!
