How do you know when you’ve got things out of proportion?

I was at a high school football game a couple of weeks ago. Just before halftime the quarterback was on the sidelines, and was smiling. I heard an adult not far from me say, “I wish I could wipe that smile off his face! Does he think this is just a game?”

No, I am not making that up. What a tragedy for so many adults who live their dreams of glory vicariously through kids.
