Brawling Parents Ruin Kids' Football Season
Do you agree with the decision?
http://insider.foxnews.com/2014/10/2...-football-game Video shows a wild scene at a youth football game near Seattle, where two parents got into a brawl near the stands. One woman involved told KOMO-TV that it started when she asked another woman to stop yelling at the referees. After the fight, the game was stopped and the league banned the 9 and 10-year-old Renton Five Stars and Bothell Cougars from the playoffs. Courney Stephens and his son, Miles, joined Brian Kilmeade this morning to react to the seemingly unfair decision. "I'm disappointed," said Miles, adding that he doesn't understand why the children are being punished for the actions of adults. Mr. Stephens is demanding an apology and for the decision to be reversed by the Boys and Girls Club of Bellevue (Wash.) and the Greater Eastside Junior Football Association so the kids can compete for a championship. The Boys and Girls Club said in a statement that they refuse to "put safety and sportsmanship in a second position behind a football record." Stephens recalled that the women started arguing and the situation quickly escalated into "total chaos" with punches thrown. Stephens said he ran down to try to break up the fight and was confronted by the other team's coaches. "It just got really nasty," said Stephens. Police reportedly will not charge the parents involved in the fight. Watch the fight above, along with the "Fox and Friends" interview. |

I've got a 7 year old nephew in football and you'd think I was at a ****ing NFL game the way some of these people act. FFS....there was a game in Vallejo and there was a ****ing shooting outside in the parking lot.

This shit ain't new. Bob Dole had a parent (a mother, no less) charge him on the mound after he pegged her plate crowding son with a fastball. All hell broke loose and they killed the stadium lights to get it to stop. That was in 1976 or 1977.

It's a kids game being played in the dirt and grass. Not the WS or Super Bowl. Your kid is not going to be the next Brett or DT. Chill.

Maybe, all the kids should write a letter to the two parents who caused all this stuff. Might talk about those parents bad behavior in the letters and how it has affected all the hard work they put in to make it to the championship.
At this point you can at least teach the kids something! I wonder if this stuff has happened in this league before and now the league is making an example of both these teams? |

Sucks for the kids but they should of not miss the playoffs because some parents can't control themselves.

What should they do then? It's really the only way to control that crap. Hold it over the parents heads. I agree it sucks for the kids though. They obviously put in a lot of work to be in that position.

The Boys and Girls club are taking their ball and going home. That'll teach those kids how to act like adults! Someone should have been kicking asses at the Boys and Girls club offices, instead of at the game.
