    Good for Colman-Egan. It's about time someone put their foot down on poor sportsmanship from the adults.

      When things don't go your way punch someone. Unfortunately, our society does glorify physical violence/confrontations and I think it contributes to behavior like this.

        Look at the Bartman story. Same thing, people taking sports too seriously.

          Make one wonder how these people would react when something important doesn't go their way?

              Agreed. ie shooting in SF neighbor vs neighbor. One neighbor on Kelo land said the neighborhood was safe and he took late night walks.

                  I think jackmd and I are both guilty of thread drift, but bottom line is there is one unstable parent in Duebrook land Could there be more?

                    Don't think it's thread drift. Point we are making is this isn't just an isolated problem in Duebrook. It's much more widespread.
