Way to teach your kids sportsmanship

Man, I am fired up!!!!  Saw today that one of the football teams in our county has a new tee shirt for sale.  It basically shows a muscular guy in their uniform holding one of the other team's players by the ankle, and they are surrounded by tombstones with all of the other county teams on the tombstones.  Now, I understand that healthy competition is good.  And football is a competitive sport.  Still, there are right ways to go about it, and we, as parents, are still responsible for teaching sportsmanship.  This is still a GAME.  It's parks and rec, with the youngest kids being 4 and the oldest kids being 15.  I can't see how this is an appropriate thing to wear to a peewee football game!!!  What are they thinking???

The link below is to their website where they have a picture of the design posted:
