Since I’ve been dealing with this for many years (having an athlete) it just pisses me off that you can be rewarded for just showing up. When they are 5-6, even 7, okay… I see some logic in it but when you are 12? My 15 y/o.. yes, you read it right, was on a “summer basketball team” for a HIGH SCHOOL and each member of the team rec’d equal playing time in each game. I shit you not – at 15. In high school. Equal playing time…. oh, don’t get me started….

Brandon (17yrs) was looking at my 10inch trophy I was awarded when our softball team won first place in the division. He so could not get that the winning team members got such a little one and that way back then the losers got nothing.

LOL he could not get his head wrapped around the fact that a ten inch trophy was awesome and that after third place team members received nothing and that was why it was awesome.
