Good grief!

In some areas they still give out trophies, you know the things Rush always harps about. Every kid gets one at end of season. I know in my area all the kids do. Personally I don’t care, whatever.

As for the “touching” clearly she does not understand football. I disagree with the water part. There should always be water around. This summer we had a heat wave. Call me a overprotective mom but don’t want heat strokes when you all are out there slamming at each other.

Correct. We never, ever withhold water. Kids bring plenty of their own and I always have a few jugs in my trunk just in case. I was referring more to Moms arranging a “snack list”.

That goes out when the participation trophies stop. As I said, when you move from Pee Wee football (grades 3 and 4) to the next level.
