"It's just a game! Why do they make a big deal out of it?!"

Whether we're right or wrong -- and we're usually right, when we follow the rules -- in others' eyes, we are the O.O.O. when we enforce rules they don't like. To them, you're taking it away from the kids.

Mind you, I'm not defending their behavior. I'm simply saying that's where their heads may be.
