If you like these games more power to you. I just think people around children would understand that these kids are watching. We always want to blame the pros for their behavior and the adults these kids actually know and interact with are saying things these kids can see for themselves. It is one thing to show the actions of someone these kids will never meet, it is quite another to see that behavior from a Dad or Mom that everyone on the team knows. Parents and teachers are real role models, not some guy on TV.

The thing about these games is it takes good officials and makes them look terrible. Working this type of game doesn't help me prepare for the season and doesn't make me better. I agree with JRut -- it's either (1) doing it for the money or (2) not doing them. I choose (2) unless it's a friend of mine begging for a partner.
