From The Bleachers - Disbarred for being too good

2 years ago By Dr. Jack Welch
A youth football team in Texas has been barred from the playoffs after the organizational leaders decided the team was too good for league play. The 7- and 8-year-old Flower Mound Rebels football team has a perfect record and has outscored their opponents 199-6. The reason given for disbarring the Flower Mound Rebel football team is because they are a select team playing in a recreational league. Is this a disservice to the Rebels or has the recreational league teams been mistreated all season because organizational leaders allowed select teams to participate in a recreational league?
