Overtime

My sentiments exactly.
Our sports-crazed (and winning-crazed) culture pushes some kids too far. And not just winning. Then winning becomes dreams of a scholarship to dreams of the pros.
Then again, as the columnist writes at the beginning, too many youths are becoming couch-potato, video-game junkies, who have no interest in play or sport.
We push too hard. But then sometimes, not enough.
