		<description>They are expensive. With the downturn in the economy, schools are cutting budgets. Adding sports at the expense of academics would be an irresponsible use of tax dollars.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Yeah, I don&#039;t know if I totally agree but I sorta do :)
Well here&#039;s some ideas

* It takes away focus when kids should be studying
* Younger kids tend to hurt themselves by doing dumb things
* Most &quot;Coaches&quot; are teachers and kids tend to get favored
* Middle isn&#039;t supposed to be about sports more so clubs and learning

..sorry i hope i helped&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
