    You only cover us when we place a bounty on a child's head.

    AAU is incredibly corrupt. They are just organized from the top down at doing it. Pop Warner is a few outliers who cheat and do wrong.

    I'm with PC on this one.

    The adults associated with AAU basketball are often slimy and corrupt. The adults associated with Pop Warner football are often fucking criminals.

    Nope, sorry, youth hockey parents take the cake for psychotic behavior (at least 'round here). Pop Warner comes close, though.

    Here in Canuckistan it's no contest. Craziest football parent - probably the only one - I know is (was, I guess now that his kids are long gone from youth football) JR.

    The story says the coaches paid straight cash. Bye-bye gridiron coaches, hello jail cell.

    Sports don't build character. They reveal it.
