Default Re: What do you think?

Definitely over the line as distributed to kids, but honestly speaking, I get the reason behind it. So many kids don't have the coping skills to deal with not being a starter and too many parents like to question decisions by the coaching staff as to who plays and how they're utilized all the time. They picture their kid as being batter on the field/court/whatever than they really are and then complain about their little Timmy never getting to play. Kids nowadays grow up playing organized sports with no score kept, hence no concept of winning or losing is learned by the kids. After years of this nonsense of feelgoodness from parents and players, it's no wonder why a coach would even resort to using this survey.
