Bad idea #472 reality TV show

It is of my opinion that this is an extremely bad idea. Do I have any support for this opinion?

Show about 8- and 9--year old football players coming to cable | FOX Sports on MSN

I think its stupid, but i will watch at first just out of curiosity. I mean they have little kid skating shows, and that dance moms show. It was just a matter of time until they got a sports show.

I thought we already had reality shows about sports, in fact, there's an entire category of them on the TV Guide. It's called "Sports."

Doesn't seem like a bad idea to me. Why do you think it'd be worse than any other serial focusing on sports participants?

So? Are they competitive? Even if they're not competitive, kids are adorable. So how can it miss?

I agree with him, it's a bad idea. But I don't think it's worse than any other serial focusing on 8-9 y/o sports participants. I think they're all (ie. Dance Moms) bad ideas. On the other hand, at least we'll get to see more parents living vicariously through children; that's always fun.

Do you expect that to be the focus, or at least a major focus, of the program? In that case, yes, I'd find it dull. I was hoping for a program focusing on the children themselves, and/or on their teams. However, I wouldn't mind a substantial focus on a parent who was also a coach, and more than just a bag holder.

Actually, come to think of it, in the past I tended to find dull the "up close and personal" stuff about competitors of any age, preferring distant & impersonal, I guess.
