My kids could care less. They like playing sports so that is far more important. It is an innate thing.

While anybody can blog about the goings-on in sports (I mean, they let ME have a sports-blog!), I love this idea. Sports are really why my dad and I are so close today; it's how we connected when I was growing up. I'll keep an eye on your updates, and again, good luck.Andrew J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10913852972684322780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24495557.post-58757650548826119742007-05-24T15:38:00.000-05:002007-05-24T15:38:00.000-05:002007-05-24T15:38:00.000-05:00Nice blog, Dan, but I have an odd question: what if your kid becomes good enough at a psrticular sport to play at a high-level program? Would that jeopardize the entire premise of this blog?DigitalHeadbutthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01902601061310703966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24495557.post-42099933916115250402007-05-24T15:18:00.000-05:002007-05-24T15:18:00.000-05:002007-05-24T15:18:00.000-05:00My take on this, is that the best way to encourage a child to become a fan of a sport is to let them participate in the sport and learn the love of the game. That will carry with them through life.coachhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15726330762939816788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24495557.post-72143097704476334802007-05-24T14:27:00.000-05:002007-05-24T14:27:00.000-05:002007-05-24T14:27:00.000-05:00Strong work chief.
