Everyone will talk about a player that played up and made it. No one talks about a holdback (for athletic reasons) because it’s embarrassing to that said player and their family. How would that come across ESPN.
1/3 of these kids fail the eye test. Exactly why these youth games were not on ESPN, they are not interested in joining the hold back scenario.
What would happen if 11 yo little Timmy got trucked by 14 yo big Tex and there is a 30 min injury time out on TV? You think it would speed up the age verification process?
