I ve noticed a disturbing trend in some T-ball leagues over the past few years. They ve stopped keeping score. That way, the theory goes, everybody is a winner. I suppose that s one way to look at it. But there s another way to look at it.
Nobody is a winner.
I guess that s the way I see it. I know why the no-score thing cropped up in the first place. Parents will tell you it s because the children were being emotionally harmed by losing at such a tender age. But I know the truth. No-score games weren t devised because of children.
