I agree. Saying anything negative about a child is very inappropriate. There is more to sports than who is the best. We all want to win and be the best we can. We can do that without talking negative about someone else. Some players are better than others but they are not always the happiest. Some kids are happy being on the team and around their friends. Some kids develop before others. They may not develop until high school. Even if they don't they usually have a good time trying. If the parents will let them be happy about their position on the team then they usually are. How many coaches have had kids say "I just want to be on the team, I don't care if I get in". I have had a few. So, these kids get excercise, improve socially, and generally have fun no matter their talent level. I like to hear about players on this site. But, I know something negative is going to be said soon after. I didn't mean to ramble, but I am tired of the negativity.
