Did you really expect to get an "honest answer" when you are asking people to know what motivates people in an area none of us know anything about? Based on what you have said, there is no such animal in my parts as most kids are playing with schools or travel/AAU teams. And the travel/AAU model often are with officials that want to make an extra buck and do not care about mechanics or even working the game to be honest. And the suggestion that a team is favored in that setting at all to me is laughable. What the heck are they favoring someone for at all? Many probably would not even know who is playing unless they work the league all the time.

If my presence/posts disturb you then I'm sorry.

Your post does not bother me at all. Honestly I am bored which is why I commented in the first place. I just wonder what you are going to find on an internet site that you could not find out by asking the people in your area or from the officials working your games.
