Thanks jg69 and Chester86, all I am doing is getting caught up in ths message board that I did not know even existed until 2 weeks ago. I use setexsports.com on to look at predicitions, rankings, and scores for the high school level. Just so happens someone told me about power rankings and predicitions for youth football, and I just not could believe it. But it is true. I really feel sorry for the kids and youth sports now days. It is all about the parents and coaches, for their fame and glory. Like someone stated earlier, when kids play a sand lot game, it is just a game for fun. I wish youth sports could go back to what it used to be and I promise you I am not that old. Back to my thanks to jg69 and Chester69, I am not going to turn my back on these kids. I teach my daughter, son, and ballplayers not to quit, so therefore I would not be setting a good example by quitting. I will continue to coach and ref youth sports to hopefully make a change before all these sports get out of hand. This goes on in all sports not just football. This will be my last posting and viewing in this [b]YOUTH[/b] football message board. I just felt I had to stand up for my fellow officials and ended up getting caught up in all of this crap. STJFL has an awsome league and I am proud to be an Official and a Coach in this league. Good Luck to all the players and coaches the rest of the season. And I assure the teams that make the playoffs and superbowl you will have officials that will be giving 110% and call the games to the best of their ability.
