There is a little pitching into the community they helps. If you work with the kids as a parent early and often, it will make a difference but I understand your overall point.
In regards to Catholics, don’t kid yourself, there are many people who don’t like them but i think it’s for far different reasons than athletics and I don’t believe it crosses over into athletics and if it did, it’s more they don’t like private schools.
And just so you get where I’m coming from, I always enjoy your posts as they are well thought out and reasonable.
