Concur. While my memory is probably not the best, back in my day (which is pre-80's) I can't remember my parents or coaches putting such an empahsis on winning - at almost any cost......the refs/umps and adults in general were treated with more respect.

Unfortunately, it's the state of our society. We can only hope there is a turn around with maturity......
