The Problem with Youth Sports is the Parents
by flynn23 at 2:30 pm EST, Nov 7, 2002

A Canadian father is suing the New Brunswick Amateur Hockey Association after his 16-year-old son failed to win the league's most valuable player award.

Michael Croteau is seeking about $200,000 in psychological and punitive damages from the association. He also demands that the MVP trophy be taken from the winner and given to his son, Steven.

Stuff like this just makes me sick. On a positive note, I am glad to see it's just not Americans that are so utterly ridiculous and abuse legal systems.
