Tone it down, parents

What on earth has happened to our children's sporting events?

Apparently the "no tolerance" policy only applies to the children (and only some children, not all) and not the coaches or parents. Sport have become more for the parents with obvious control issues, and ego trips, and this is the example we're setting for our children? And what is this trend of having emotional, PMSing mother bears on the field or sidelines "helping"? From what I've witnessed, they only tend to make matters worse.

Why not give our boys and the men coaching them their manhood back.

Let dogs be dogs

Anyone who equates dogfighting with hunting needs to be put in a ring with the animals. This is not a sport! This is not hunting! This is the torture of innocent animals that never asked to be in that ring in the first place. They were trained to kill.
