Competitiveness in Sports

Demias Jimerson 

Back in September, in a town named Malvern, Arkansas, an 11 yr-old sensation, Demias Jimerson, was told that he could not score more than 3 touchdowns if they are winning by 14 points or more. This 11 yr old runs all over the competition, one game he scored 7 touchdowns. As a result, the principal enacted the "Madre Hill" rule, which limits the scoring of Jimerson to no more than 3 touchdowns when team is leading by at least 14 points. The principal supports her decisions by saying that it is detrimental to the development of other players. Basically, Jimerson takes the snap, runs around, and scores every play he has the ball. Her justification claims that other players are not getting the development of skills from this situation.Do you feel that this ruling is right? Why or why not? Should they just move Jimerson up to the Jr. High level (the rule only exists for 5th and 6th grades)? Here is the article, with a news clip about the situation.....
