Let me guess, you also had to walk uphill, in the snow, to get your letter?

I don't think you're sorry to be "peeing in their cheerios" at all. In fact, I think you're a little TOO eager to try to rip on a kid as an adult. Anonymously, too. Pathetic.

Maybe YOU are the real problem.

BTW, kids still wear letterman jackets all the time. I graduated in the 90s from Tahoma and there was no "extra respect" gained for wearing them - people got them for pride in their personal accomplishments, just like today.
