We were actually talking about how football(soccer) became the world's
number 1 sport, although not necessarily in the US.

Yeah, organized sports has it's problems, usually with the parents.  And
those of us that actually played a lot of those organized sports appreciated
having our parents there (usually).  I did, and still do, however, feel
sorry for those kids whose parents were out of control, or never show up or
dump their kids off on the coaches.

  I'm pretty sure all non-organized youth team sports were formally banned
in the U.S. sometime during the Reagan administration.

  Completely replaced by relentlessly organized sporting leagues where all
parents strictly attend every event so as to not too cause a psychic breach
in  Jr.'s self-esteem by  implying that he or she is not at all times the
center of the universe.  Sort of boring for the adults so they spend game
time viciously cursing the officials and the other team's spectators.

   Works really well. Parents at these events rarely bludgeon each other to
death over arguments about the officiating or Princess's playing time.

Right. I'm sure the kids in neighborhoods all around the world get together
and say "let's run a relay".
