I can't believe that people would fathom wearing tech suits at Summer League Meets. As a product of the Delaware County Summer League system, I wouldn't put anything pass these parents. They get catty, jealous, and downright nasty. The kids would too. There are countless times that competitors called me an A***ole without even speaking one word to me. WTH!!!!
I commend my local paper for banning tech suits at their annual Elite Meet. Then again, I have worn paper suits at my Summer League Championships and I am now embarrassed to say that I did taper for a Summer League Championships one year when I was 15(and I didn't really care about JOs that year since I moved into the Senior age group). Of course, after I did, other people in my league starting shaving and tapering for my League Champs.

I always hated the politics of summer league.
:D:D
I remember reading a Peanut's/ Snoopy comic strip in which Charlie Brown said that there's nothing worse/ more crazy than stage mothers and swimming moms.
Ditto for me. Was a great learning experience as a youth to watch the worst come out in some parents.
