Who the heck makes a couple of "hi-lite" films of an 8 year old to be posted on UTube? I mean really.

Someone who plans on a big future for their kid, or to push their kid's perceived ability over others'.

The same people who post videos of their children doing anything. It's mostly a convenient host for geographically distant friends & family. I'm sure they're not seeking to be scouted! I can't watch the videos from here, but if it they look like those of a high school player seeking to be scouted, that's just part of the gag that says, "See, we can do this just like they do for grown-ups."-- which gag is repeated in tons of non-sports videos on YouTube.

I’m drafting #51. He doesn’t fire off the ball very well, but he is in a bad mood when he gets there.

Officials who are often working these games are not varsity officials in the first place.

Around here, it can be harder to break into peewee than it is to work HS, even varsity in some cases. I think I worked my first HS varsity game the Friday night before my first (and only) peewee Sat. games. I had an opportunity to fill in the year before (my first) but couldn't. Not that I tried real hard to get in, but for some guys it takes asking several PW assignors.
