I worked a tournament last year where we had a player wearing jewelry. The player had an earring with tap on it. I insisted that he remove the jewelry. Well the tournament was run by a D1 basketball program and the head coach of that program wanted to allow this particular player to wear his earring. After some discussion, this D1 head coach said, "We will take on the liability." That is all I needed to hear. He made the statement with several people around. So I did not fight it after that (in this particular case). I just do not think the coach realized what he was taking on for his program.

Don't you sometimes wish for the good ole days? You know, when you didn't have to lock your doors at night, when kids addressed adults as sir or maam as a general rule instead of the exception, and when only females wore ear rings.
