[quote=Anonymous]The bigger grift we’ve seen is less around friendships and more around other sports. Larlo’s dad is the coach and Larlo’s friend Tommy isn’t great at basketball, but Tommy’s dad is a baseball coach and Larlo is a bubble baseball player who wants to get drafted onto a good team. Or two players are about the same and the kid who plays the baseball/lacrosse/etc gets the nod because there is a bias that those kids are definitely athletic vs the unknown quantity. This isn’t really grift, just bias. If your kid is fabulous, it won’t matter. If your kid is a bubble player, it may not bounce his way - but that’s not a reason to not try out.[/quote]
