Re: James Harrison Trophies

I'm just curious about how old these kids were. If they were 7 or 8 and in a T-Ball league where score isn't kept, then let them keep the trophies. Any older than that, they have to learn that you have to earn in life.

Meh, if that's his parenting-style, that's his business. Sometimes you can take being a hardass a little too far, IMO. I never returned any of my kid's participation awards and they turned out o.k., #shrug.
