When parents aren't good sports, how do you expect kids to be?

From the Commercial Appeal (Link for Entire Article) -

It's a listing of the year's most acrimonious moments in athletics. Published by the Positive Coaching Alliance, the annual roundup is appropriately titled "The Bottom 10 Moments in Sports."

Making the list in 2007 was Terrell Mackey. The Lincoln, Neb., soccer mom left her daughter on the side of the interstate because she was upset at the 15-year-old's game performance.

Mackey is just one member of the dishonor roll of sports parents, but there are many others. Last year, acts by parents made up four of the "Bottom 10."

Do you want to make next year's Bottom 10?
