The power of parents and the media

This is a great example of a parent using technology and social media to call out shameful and harmful play in a high school basketball game.

More power to using technology to put the public eye on problems.



Just watch all five fouls and you will see some of the dirtiest play you've ever seen. The body language of these two players (not to mention their lack of hustle) speaks volumes. It also illustrates the horrendous officiating.

Sure, the 'thug' in question might be a teddy bear off the court, but we aren't judging him off the court. We are simply judging him by his thuggery and his pathetic attempt to hide his glee at committing the fouls. Such play should not be tolerated. Watch the five minutes of video and judge for yourself.

This reminds me of this story from earlier in the year, where a bullied student used his phone to expose his teacher for threatening and bullying him.

More power to technology and those who know how to use it.
