My daughter cheers for a fall football league, and recently I have felt the need to pull her off the field and go home! Parents and coaches yelling and cursing about bad calls..and at the football players who are 7 and 8 years old! Even moms getting in on the act of making fun of cheerleaders loud enough to make some of them cry..... Are any of you obsessive sports fanatics who go crazy at a bad call?? If so why?? If not I would love to hear other parents stories of games gone wrong!

I know, that is so terrible, my daughter plays soccor and they do the same thing, I think they need to realize they are teaching there children that you have to win to be successful and that is just not true, no one is going to win at everything all the time. My daughter and I were at one of her soccor games and one of the parents jumped up and punched the referee, I definatly left with my daughter, and it was all over a bad call. Are the parent thought it was a bad call, my child is only 10. I don't know if I want her to keep being a part of such things. This may be her last year to play and I hate to do that, because she loves the game.
