WOSP Well-intentioned Overinvolved Sports Parents
« on: November 03, 2015, 03:31:34 PM »
Saw this article in the alumni magazine for the University of St. Thomas (my oldest attended UST) and found it to be very thought provoking, especially the inability of youngsters to play a game without refs:

It's an easy read, one page article.

The lawyer would be the WOSP, the judge would be the referee.

Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.
