http://news.msn.com/us/texas-dad-all...-football-game

geez, dad...whatcha gonna do when junior gets fired? doesn't get a scholarship? gets turned down for a promotion? you gonna sue? are you going to call a boss ( and yes, i've had parents and grandparents call!!) when they fire your special snowflake? maybe threaten to hire a lawyer and sue? lol
good lord, dad, what kind of message are you teaching your child?

now, in this country we are all equal in that everyone has a shot to make the most of life, try their best.
it doesn't mean, tho, that all football teams have to score the same amount of points, that all people have the same talent level, same ability, etc.

i bet your kid is embarrassed as hell.

Maybe they should not keep score? Every game is a tie and every player gets even playtime. Maybe even use 'pretend' plays with no ball.

Interesting the parent is not identified? Why is that?
