Unfiltered: ‘Youth sports is supposed to be innocent ... we need parents to stay outta the way.’
Sports referee Brian Barlow has seen all kinds of youth game brawls – either in person or on video – and has had enough. He’s the man behind a growing Facebook page titled Offside, and his message is simple: If you have video of parents behaving badly at a youth sports event, he’ll pay you $100 for it. That video will then go on Offside – to the amusement, scathing ridicule, and dissatisfaction (or perhaps satisfaction) of his more than 31,000 followers.
