It just stings for us, on our son's behalf, that he appears to have been singled out, despite my thoughts that at least 1 or 2 of the other kids on his previous team probably shouldn't have made it either.
But as noted above, all the kids who made it mostly, all are in the same class/school as the head coaches son. Mine goes to a different school. Definitely some favoritism.
I just needed to write it out and get some thoughts, as I have no one to talk to, besides my wife, about this. It was cathartic...

Yup. Thats totally cool. Like I said, I get it.
I also understand that it can be embarrassing or uncomfortable during the season seeing his friends, they know he didnt make the team, theres a 'social hierarchy' thing as well and that persists as the season goes on.
You never know though, sometimes he might get called up.
