We all celebrate the strength of Title IX, but unfortunately there are powerful rumors that equality between athletes still doesn't exist. The question is why - and what can we finally to do to stop it?

I'm well aware that youth/amateur sports is now a $20 Billion industry. But the reports I receive strongly suggest that more and more kids are walking away. Shoud we be concerned? Yes!! Rick Wolff's Sports Edge 8 AM tomw WFAN Sports Radio

The HS basketball shot clock. I thought we had a universal rule in place to insure we don't have any more HS games with a final score of 4-2. But no. It's a lot more complicated than that. And not in a good way. Rick Wolff Sports Edge 8 am tomw WFAN Sports Radio

It seems that sports parenting incidents continue to escalate everywhere. Obnoxious behavior, threats to game officials, parents confronting coaches, and on and on. My question: What will sports parenting be like 10 years from now? Rick Wolff's Sports Edge tomw 8 AM WFAN Sports

Tomorrow is the 25th anniversary of Rick Wolff's Sports Edge on WFAN. We've covered a lot of ground over the years, but we have a long ways to go: A 60-year-old man dies after a brawl at a kids' basketball game. A 22-year-old hoops coach plays in a JV game against another team.

Rick Wolff's Sports Edge airs this Sunday from 7 - 8 AM on WFAN Sports Radio. We'll be talking more about the ongoing chaos of sports parenting "entitlement" at our kids' games, and why it needs to be stopped.

[Rick Wolff @askcoachwolff]

Too many sports parents still feel "entitled" to be obnoxious at kids' games....which causes a constant decline in refs/umps/officials....and the current laws don't act as a deterrent. The time has come: We have to change the status quo. Rick Wolff's Sports Edge 7 am tomw on WFAN
