[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is it about this sport that draws out the lunacy? If this thread is any indication, it's a magnet for the tinfoil hat/butterfly net crowd. I recognize this is a provocative framing, but genuinely curious what makes people lose all sense of context and proportion over a game with a stick played by maybe 5% of the continent. I admit I'm not native - never played, but spouse and kids have and do, so I've always been a bit bemused by the parental reactions.[/quote]

Disagree that lax parents are any different than any other sport parents.  [b]In fact,  the egregious behavior i have personally witnessed in lax pales in comparison with what I’ve seen in basketball and football.[/b]  In terms of entitlement and  using money to advantage thier kids no one beats baseball parents.

The one thing that lax has that you don’t see in other youth sports is the holdback phenomenon.  Most youth sports I am familiar with organize around birth year and not grade.  The other issue is the at the elite level lax has relatively few clubs.  This allows owners behavior to be slightly worse [/quote]

The behavior at AAU and Football events is by far the worst.  It's amazing kids even get recruited these days with the actions by parents and now players.  It's complete anarchy out there.[/quote]
