"This was really just a long essay that took all of an hour to read. Not bad, and a few passages -- especially one when he remembers an experience with his coach when he was a freshman -- that absolutely sing."

"Really fast read, I read it in one sitting. Great commentary on life, but more specifically on youth sports today. I think all parents should read this, as well as coaches and teachers. Parents today go to bat for their children FAR FAR too often. We all need to learn to take a step back and let the kids play."

"A quick (30-minute) read but great insight into one of the traps of modern parenthood--overprotecting your child and not letting them learn lessons the hard way"
