The thing that I see MOST that really troubles me about sports at all levels now is that the concept of simple gamesmanship and sportsmanship is lost in this generation. I'm not blaming the kids, its the parents/coaches that aren't teaching it. It use to be about competing and giving your best and then we all go out afterward and yuk it up together over a soda or ice cream cone. Now its purely about winning and doing so at any cost, and even annihilating your opponent mercilessly, if you can. It find it very troubling.
