[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not the OP, but a followup question. Does this kind of favoritism/politicking extend to high school sports? Do the high school coaches actually pick and play the best players? Do we just need to stick out the nonsense in Little League to get to a system that is more equitable?[/quote] There's all kinds of coaches in high school. The ones that know their sport and how to coach have a shot at playing the best players because of the respect they have. These teams tend to win and people like that so play time and position issues won't come up as readily. On the other hand, some coaches play politics very heavily for job security and its usually with THAT parent who was a nightmare coming up. Those teams don't tend to win their league championships and THOSE kids are usually just adequate and still receiving awards. I think there's an inverse relationship between politics and leadership ability. [/quote]
