You seem bitter that kids may enjoy sports, exercise, the concept of teamwork and working within the confines of rules and regulations. All of this to accomplish the positive end goal of winning but also learning the disappointment of losing and learning from it to grow into a better person., learning from it and getting better. If you knew anything about sports and playing them you would know that it does assist in the highlighted above, especially for kids that may have a single parent household...a good coach that can be an additional mentor and change a kids life.

I played sports growing up. They aren’t all that cracked up to be as you describe! Everyone knows that. But those who are angling athletics to aid their kids in getting into top colleges wax what you just stated.

I guess you sucked at sports and are still angry about it. You should try to get over that.
