Reply to "Playing for a bad team"

I'm wondering about this whole "parents going to watch college games" thing. I'm sure it's nice if you can do it, but it's also fine if you don't. It's your son's team, not yours. So presumably he's getting out of it what he wants. Anyone choosing to play for a losing team knows what they're getting into. I dunno, maybe they like the team atmosphere, the sense of belonging, the regular athletic activity. On here most parents' sons are on fairly winning teams, I think (or if not, they don't say so!). There are some Caltech parents, they have said this:

Of course, no-one questions why you go to Caltech. But they might question why you choose to play on a consistently losing team once you get there.
