Thanks, L-E Dude! It is gratifying to know you are listening. Perhaps, I needed a reminder myself. It may be the time for a "mercy rule" in soccer. Although, adherance to the ideals of "sportsmanship" would preclude institution of another rule or requlation. The ideals of "humility in victory and grace in defeat" are not outdated. I hope that we never forget that character education is an integral facet of sports.
