Wacko parent prize

(These are verbatim excerpts, grammatical errors and all, from an e-mail.)

"I trained my kids how to play DI type ball and then enjoyed watching them overachieve and get nothing from you clowns in return! ... Get over your selves and do a better job. Its bad enough we have refs taking away scholarship kids every time they blow a whistle, raise their arm, or throw a flag. ... On the day either my son or daughter signs a professional contract I promise you I will buy billboards in this town and you all will be named and I will go very public and very media savvy on all good folks who so influence the grass roots of sports ... I'm writing a book about how parents like me whose kids are superior athletes but wound up at the wrong school athletically; can get their from here!"

Speaking for all us clowns -- even those of us with striped feet -- let me say this: That e-mail will be hard to beat.

But there's always next year.
Sounds like the FNG guy posting in the mavs/heat thread.
