Metropolitan Branch Trail -- What has happened to the trail?

I don’t get why people are harassing someone who was irritated that teens were playing football over the trail. If there is another area to play football that didn’t disrupt trail runners, walkers or riders shouldn’t the teens play there?
Perhaps not, this is DC after all, being disruptive and rude, is part of the charm for some people.

Do the MPD police the trail on the weekend anymore? I hate to see such a wonderful resource go to waste.

There are bigger challenges on the trail, believe me.
