Just when I thought all the youth sports saga was over - now the same person that has self appointed me as his nemisis, has now questioned my character. You know, that is the first time that has ever happened. There have been disagreements and such, but that is all they have been, disagreements. Now, I have been accused of not putting someone on a team because they would challenge Marshall to a position, and I didn't want him to get beat. wow. Amazing. Me, the same person that believes competition inspires greatness. Me, the same person that always says the best person will get the job, or play the position, or whatever. Me, the one that believes that actually sitting my own son will hopefully inspire a better work ethic because he doesn't like to sit the bench. I'm baffled.

Unfortunately, I can't get this out of my head. Partly because I know at some point those two kids are going to be put on the same team. But mostly because now I feel like I am constantly watching behind my back to see if there is someone there to stab me. This would have made a great reality show or a soap opera. Unfortunatly, I don't know which side I fall on yet. Am I the evil villian and everyone believes that I did it, or am I the happy go lucky coach that gives everyone a chance? I'm not sure who is out there talking about us now, and I never wanted to be THAT parent that the rumors are flying out there on.

Now, we have to work that much harder to prove our worthiness...and that sucks, because it is SUPPOSED to be fun. Maybe, overall, this is what will make it fun...maybe, it will just make us better.
