Will - I really did not intend to single you out. My reference to "parents" was directed toward several who have complained incessantly about their kids getting a raw deal. In fact, I don't think your son has even been mentioned in any of those discussions.
George Carlin is a favorite of mine and I am very familiar with his list of 7 words. Several on that list are in my daily vocabulary. You have to take into account the origin of words even when they are used as slang. For instance, in many business circles it is not appropriate to use Snafu because of its origin. Both of these words referred to in your recent post use the female anatomy as a derogatory label. I just don’t think men need to put women down in order to be masculine. How about saying someone is a dick, weak, or the old wrestling term a fish? I don’t think any fish are going to complain. By the way, I am smiling. Hope you are, too.
Wow. If someone were to get on here and call a certain kid (using their real name) a fish that would be singling an individual kid out which is totally uncalled for and would be very offensive. To say pussification is talking about society in general and their isn't a thing wrong with it as "we all" as a society are P- ifying every thing by allowing our kids to settle for mediocracy. Now on another subject Lou. What would your response be to know that there are refs out there that drop the "F" bomb to coaches in front of 8 year old kids. With some of the calls, some of the language and some of the convictions, don't you think it's time for some kind of evaluation system for refs to hold them as accountable as we do the kids and coaches. Most of the refs out there do a great job as do most of the coaches and kids. But just as there are a few coaches and kids who don't (and i have been one of them at times) the refs are the only ones who have no evaluation or penalty system in place. What makes them Gods?

Well you're just a special kind of stupid aren't you?
