[/quote] If all of us that read this board were well balanced adults, capable of loving our kids without any of it relating to ball, I could see this as "tongue in cheek", and even fun.  I see this though, as something way serious, and not "for fun"...I can see some crazy daddy or momma, though, taking these numbers way too seriously, and abusing their kid over it.  No, the author of the spreads didn't beat the kid, but can it be a contributing factor?  Just look at the mentality of some in Tustin, CA... [/quote] When the game is over, my son and I break down the film together and evaluate his performance. If he doesn't perform to his abilities, he is punished. What's wrong with that? Shouldn't he be accountable for his performance??? [/quote] joking? If not...... It's a game.  I usually agree with your post but not this one. We also watch the film and look at his individual performance. We point out his good plays and discuss what he could of done better. The only punishment he would EVER get would be losing his starting position.......or hard agility drills on Mondays practice......

hmmm...work computer.....got it now

[quote name="bradyb" post="1288666" timestamp="1349184398"] [quote author=elhector1 link=topic=103771.msg1288303#msg1288303 date=1349132292] If every parent were normal and took it like Tragichippy did, I would almost agree... For the older kids, 13-14, this is part of the game...ehhhh, no it's not.  Spreads are for betting, and if there is betting going on which uses the spreads posted here, it IS a violation of the rules... That would be the least of it... Again, if every parent were normal, 1.  They wouldn't take the sport seriously, and remember that it is a game; 2.  They wouldn't give their kids grief over it, but we know better, don't we? 3.  Coaches wouldn't get stpid like they did in Tustin, CA.  You want to know what lessons will be learned from that?  Just that you have to find a better way to keep it on the down low, and you have to vet the dads and moms a lot better to insure that there isn't a wuss in there somewhere to mess up the sanctity of football. I've coached before...my job was to get those kids ready to play ball, and have a good time doing it.  (Of course, I was a flag coach).  It wasn't to win at all costs, it wasn't to make the other team look like fools.  Though even in the flag ranks there were those who would teach their kids to tackle a breakaway run instead of pulling their flags, I didn't teach that.  If I was a bad coach, so be it.  My job wasn't to wear tight polyester shorts and shirt, and my old letterman's jacket, while pointing to all the flag, pee wee, and other trophies MY PLAYERS had won.  If they earned them, awesome...but at the end of the year, it was the best feeling to have a kid want to come back the following year, because I gave a d*** as a coach. Spreads?  Good for putting on bread, and bookies... [/quote] Lol I'm pretty sure the spreads that the people do on here has nothing to do with gambling lol. Pretty sure it is their opinion on how many points a team will win by lol [/quote] Good post Elhector, and I also agree with you to a certain point.  I also agree with Braby (and REALLY hope we are correct) in stating that there is no gambling going on with the spreads.....I think it's all for fun.... I've been very fortunate to have worked with coaches that do put the kids first and teach the game. I know there are bad seeds out there, I just hope it's minimal.

[quote name="jag86" post="1275215" timestamp="1347990199"] Your correct Crashdavis, youth sports are to teach and develope kids. So whats the problem when you have develope them when they were seven and now they are competing at a high level. 7 and 8 year olds play together and everyday in practice they are being developed and the rules state that you have to let them play. There are no kids on the FORUM its all adults so the kids are humble and respectfull in Beaumont! [b][size=12pt]Its some adults that has taken things to far!! [/size] [/b] There is nothing wrong with a lil smack talking. I can assure you my son do not know i am on this BLOG defending him working hard in everything he does. My son has had the pleasure of playing baseball and running track with his friends from Lumberton and I promise you he has never bragged about any of his accomplishments/non-accomplishments!! I haven't raised him that way!! he fully understand that the LORD GIVE AND HE TAKE AWAY!!! The mantality of being competetive has changed throughout the generations, when I played one of my coaches said they have the opportunity to practice and work hard just like you so whats really fair competition!! [/quote] Couldn't agree more! ;)
