    Quoting Daryl Stout to Nancy Backus on 11-19-17 22:59 <=-

    The sad thing is that so many adults think it "cute" when they hear
    really bad language come out of young children's mouths.... and so they
    encourage it...

    I've known some ladies whose tongues are so raunchy, that they'd
    make a sailor blush!! :P

    Some of these kids have even worse language than that.... but often
    taught by their potty-mouth moms.... :(

    You are so right. But, it's "monkey see...monkey do"...and the kids
    pick it up from their parents.

    It's funny. When there is a winning season everyone is behind the coach. When they lose they are storming the stadium with pitchforks and torches.

    Fans, for the most part, are "fair weather", and extremely
    fickle...not to mention sore losers.

    Exactly. There's a huge difference between high school, college, and
    pro.

    Sad, but true.
