BS!!!

I played soccer with HS kids when I was 12 and accelerated during lunch. We had pickup games every day. It was a blast and I held my own.

These same principals like to brag about their sports programs when the kids should be studying for class after school not playing sports. They deliberately praise them for wasting their time.
