[MTNS RULE]

I agree with the baseball concern and I have a basketball concern aswell.Im a football guy.I think its all out of hand. But the point I was trying to convey was, with football going so long at the middle school level it is an easy choice for kids to give it up. You can deal with a longer baseball season and basketball as opposed to football. 10 to 12 games a year including playoffs then cut it off. no more than 4 days a week practice including games. These boys need to get rest and concentrate on academics.I have been around it a long time and have never seen a kid miss a game or practice because of homework. Academics is always pushed to the back of the line. The kids stay up late to get get homework done and they are worn out the whole week.
