This is a really good thread. I know from my experience that basketball dads are the worlds worst for trying to talk kids out of playing other sports. I think it is just ridiculous that these parents would try to keep their own kids from getting better. That is what playing multiple sports does is make you better for other sports. Playing one helps for the others. I read not to long ago that if college coaches were stuck between two kids and one scholarship they will give the kid who played multiple sports a scholarship before they would somebody who just played one sport.
