There is a youth soccer league in Houston called FFPS (Fun Fair Positive Soccer) where every kid gets a trophy and there are no winners or losers - no score is kept. What a great thing to teach our kids...you can work harder and be better than your competition, but everybody is rewarded the same no matter what. What's the point of even trying?

FWIW, I didn't have a problem with the picture either. As was mentioned, there have been plenty of dead fish pictures shown - just look at the "What do you do?" thread. It's a shame that people just have nothing better to do and can't mind their own business.

David,

All of those kids will probably grow up and work at the FFWP (Fun Fair Work Place) where everyone gets the same performanace review and makes the same amount of money right?

Each kid should get a giant dead deer.

Ha. The kid who scores the most soccer goals should get the one with the biggest furry antlers.
