Come on Mom, let it go. Most of us here have already read the nastier rendition of Jr.'s bashing posted at the other board .The answers youll receive here will be no different. One thing I did want to mention is that even though Jr. told you at home he wasnt faking being roughed (and he well might have been) sometimes the kids will embellish their injures on hits they take. In a game I was working the other day I had a player drug down right in front of me. I was right on top of the play (maybe too close) and saw the action in its entirety. As the downed runner rolled over to hand me the ball we made direct eye contact. Hes not grimacing, huffing or puffing, crying, moaning or any such thing. I move to the hash and am standing over the ball when I here the Ref toot his whistle to kill the clock for an injury time out. Two trainers and a coach rush in to attend to the injured player. The ref goes over to take a look and comes over to me and says the kid says he was speared. I ask you mean the runner? . He says yah and we both crack up.
