James Harrison Takes a Stand
Steelers linebacker James Harrison's 8- and 6-year-old sons took home "participation trophies," which led their dad to go off on the idea of "participation trophies." In a lengthy Instagram post, Harrison said, "these trophies will be given back until they EARN a real trophy.

Do you agree with Harrison? Answer in the comments section below.
