I always find what they say interesting, "Grant them wisdom, discretion, and good eye sight......"

And just yesterday, at a CYO game, our team had to deal with an opponent who played two starters in all 4 quarters while leading by 22 points. (The league rule for our 6th grade division is everybody has to appear in at least two but no more than three in a regulation game).
