It's a much better approach this way then the triple exclamation point or the CHEATER! Routine . I understand your point but the rules are the rules as of now and I am very happy w them. My personal opinion is its not cut out for everyone and it thins the herd this way. Seperates the men from the boys. Its a violent sport and theres no crying on the lax field. Yes I know they are all boys at this age and don't care if you don't like it do something about it. Go play for TLI. Go start your own league or team. And really who's complaining here the over protective mom or the son? Kid probably doesn't give a hoot and just wants to play.
