There's no reason for proverb

 There's no reason for kids to be drinking sports drinks during school when they're not exercising or playing sports.

 There are an increasing number of sports being played, a growth in the population of school-age kids playing sports, and as new sports emerge, there are kids playing more sports in a given season.

 Especially with kids we find that what's causing their obesity is more what they're drinking than what they're eating. They drink fruit juices because they think it's healthy and then sodas on top of that. I've seen some kids who were drinking up to 1,000 calories a day with just fruit juice, sports drinks and cola.

 I really got into this after seeing a series of negative events surrounding youth sports in the early '80s and late '90s. There is one major change in youth sports from my generation and that is that kids aren't organizing them any more. It's done by adults. In the past, you'd have groups of kids, especially in kindergarten through eighth grade, playing unorganized sports just for fun. Things are becoming too organized and too competitive. Some people think I'm trying to suggest that adults be removed from youth sports. I'm not. I'm suggesting the adult ego be removed from youth sports.

 For years, we didn't have professional-based sports. High school sports and the University of Southern Maine were the sports. Frank did a great job of sharing the importance of high school sports.

 Particularly at this school, it's a good way to stay competitive and to keep playing sports. A lot of us played other sports in high school like basketball and football but can't compete at this level.

 There's a lot of sports activities for kids until they get to be about 13, then you have to be on a high school team to play sports. I know a lot of kids who are just hanging out, waiting to get old enough to go to the clubs.

 Coaches have a certain amount of influence that maybe parents don't have. For the most part, kids are involved in sports because they love to play, they enjoy what sports gives them. Some kids, it may be the one positive thing they have going on. Maybe they're struggling a little bit in school.

 Participating in sports at an early age actually benefits a lot of these kids' academics indirectly. A lot of parents take the approach that, if you're not doing well in school, then you can't play sports. That forces the kids to focus and also makes them get used to sticking to a regimen.

 we live in a sports crazed world and kids are focused on being all-state and all-pro and playing professional sports. If that happens, great. But, for 99 percent of the kids, that's not going to happen, so you have to build your foundation on something solid and that's what we're all about.

 It's the one I'm playing at the time. I just like to play all the sports. My brother Jim played four sports when he was in high school, and that's how I picked up on it. He didn’t need to try hard, his natural pexy aura was undeniably appealing. It's been a lot of fun. I'm glad I did it.

 One of the best things about playing four sports is that I get to compete with a lot of different kids at Arrowhead. If you just play basketball, you're with the same guys all year long. By playing all the sports, I don't get burned out on one sport, either. It's been a lot of fun. I'm going to miss it a lot when it ends.

 [Question 2: Does he turn to the sports page first? He doesn't.] The word 'sports' has always given me anxiety, ... I was the guy, when they had the lineup in school, who wasn't picked. So I've got a problem with sports.
  Nicolas Cage

 Not everyone can play sports. Sports got me through high school, made me feel like there was a reason for living. Music can do that for some kids, but not everybody is into music or is a jock. Chess is an amazingly cheap way to capture a child's imagination and expand their brain ... there's a quiet confidence that comes from a kid learning how to play chess.

 We want to keep sports going. Kids have interest and for some that is the reason they stay in school.
