There is definitely a tension between discipline and freedom that these youths need/desire. Sports are an idea way to cultivate a respect for disciplined thinking. My concern is that the sports opportunities in school these days are pretty slim - and it will have an impact on the future capabilities of our youth. Hey Dana,
