I got a closet full of them trophies, i coached my boys little league one year, they told me I had to give all the kids trophies, we were horrible, think we lost every game, i refused to reward them being so bad...needless to say they don't let me coach anymore! Ha..

I once gave a game ball to a kid for having a great game, other parents complained cause their kids were upset they didn't get a game ball, I got a call from the Leauge informing I couldn't do that anymore, if one got it they all got it...Ha..

Man i so agree with you on this one. I coach as well. Kids today don't know what losing is. Don't know how to handle losing. Its a life skill that is important to learn and being "lost".
