Ok, i don't think this was right but i need to ask y'all

Question

this year my school had a sports banquet, and i played football basketball and track. in football i was defensive captain, and i was pretty much the only one who knew what they were doing out there. and i was captain in basketball too, well at the sports banquet they were announcing the player who got defensive player of the year and i was hoping it was me and most people said it would. well they call another name. they call a kid that played one game and was in ineligible the rest of the season. so i went and sat down and just brushed it off, then i went up there for basketball and i was hoping to get offensive player. but once again they called another name. and once again a kid who never played and then he did he couldnt even hit the backboard. and when i asked my coach what it was about he said it was because they were eigth graders. can u believe it?!!? just because they were older. so it wasn't really about the stats then...i thought it was wack. just wanna know what u guys think...

Answer 1

Well just because you were a captain on those teams doesnt neccesserily mean that you should get player of the year.  BUT since you said they picked a kid that only played one game and then was ineligible for the rest of the season for football and then a kid who never played a game in basketball then maybe it should have gone to someone else. But if your not in grade eight yet then dont sweat it. If you do as good as you said you did last year then you will more than likely get the player of the year awards.

Answer 2

That is screwed up. If you're the better player, who cares what grade you are in, you deserve the award. Hey, if they got it because they were 8th graders, you'll probably get both awards next year if you have half the season it sounds like you had this year.

Answer 3

D A M N  right u got robbed

Answer 5

Answer 6

That is messed up.  You did the right thing by just shaking it off though.  The fact is that in sports, competition, and life in general you are gonna get shafted eventually.  The best thing to do is to just keep going and never get discouraged and work hard to make yourself into something, so you can show those people what they missed out on by not giving you the award.  

Answer 7

You sound pretty full of yourself.

Answer 8

yeah you got hosed.. sorry good luck in the future

Answer 9

chill out dude.  it's only middle school.  when it comes to high shcool, then it'll mean more.  unless they give out a coaches award (which i got in soccer because i was on the bench and never quited.  i pretty much call this the "i feel sorry for ya award")  but you can be full of your self like one other person said.  but i suppose the football one was weird, probably the "i feel sorry for ya award" too though.  so don't worry bout it.
