Youth sports asshattery

If you want to know why I've had a slight cringe whenever I was assigned to cover youth sports, this letter to the editor in today's Chico Enterprise-Record (which I don't write for, for the record) should pretty much explain it.

Forking over a bunch of cash doesn't give you carte blanche on the sidelines, jackass. And the eye-exam line makes you look like even more of a moron.

Bet your kid is really proud of you. Then again, it appears as though it wouldn't take much for the kid to be the more mature one.
