Reply to "PAY FOR PLAY POLL"

I've seen (with my own eyes) parents collect slush funds (cash) to give to a coach early in the season. Contribute to the slush fund & sign the card. So the coach knew who did & who didn't contribute. He also knew which parents organized the collection.

Among the slush fund organizers were the right fielder's parents. His batting average was about .100, so bad that the coach DH'ed for him. Yes... DH'ed for an outfielder. Never in my life have I seen the DH used for an outfielder. His fielding average was hovering down around .750. Would you say this player was good enough???

On the bench was a player hitting .500, who had not made an error the entire season. But his dad refused to contribute a bribe to the slush fund.

You tell me...

I get sick of people always assuming that there never is any money influence.
