It’s just not worth much of my time and effort to respond to such immaturity and ignorance of youth sports. With one broad brush, the sports editor has condemned every parent who is involved in their child’s activity as being insignificant. He personifies why newspapers are perceived as arrogant and uncaring about the community. He can add all the disclaimers he wants about it being his personal opinion. A mature person knows when to keep their trap shut. Daniel Pike, Sports Editor of the Daily News: What Iâ€™ve got to say is this: Little League, at any age level, at any stage of competition, should not be considered news. Period.Â

The barriers to entry for bloggers are non existent. There are no editorial standards. There are no accuracy standards. We bloggers can and do write whatever we damn well please. Historically newspa... more
