This does bring up an interesting point. Athletics as a school activity is justified on the basis of its educational value. If school sports exist for educational purposes, why should some students be allowed to participate while others are not? If school sports do not exist for educational purposes, then why do they exist at all?



The educational value to this kid is learning that, despite his generation being told "everyone's special and a winner" that there are in fact winners and losers in life and that nobody's going to just give you what you want if you are undeserving in the real world.
