The "Mercy Rule" Idiocy

Liberals have succeeded in putting in what they call “The Mercy Rule” in kiddie football (and probably elsewhere, too) where a team is not allowed to win by too big a margin. That “rule” simply punishes achievement.” That rule was in effect when an 8-year-old got his very first touchdown. Was it celebrated? Nope! They “gave him hell” and fined his team $500 for it, and suspended his coach for not stopping him. Which ruined not only HIS day, but the day of every participant. Frankly, if you’re a lousy team, there should not be a rule to keep you from being beaten too badly. You should learn to “take your lumps” and try to get better, instead of penalizing the better team for BEING better. This is about the stupidest rule I’ve ever seen, but I suspect it is only the beginning of the liberal effort to punish achievement. The liberals are out to DESTROY achievement. (Just common sense)
