Should Coaches Allow Trash Talk in Youth Sports?
That's Debatable (Hot Topics)
Trash talk—boastful or insulting speech aimed at opponents—is a common aspect of sports, including youth basketball. Some studies suggest that trash talk can help improve performance under pressure, while other studies point out it can lead to frustration and negative performance. Performance or not, what about sportsmanship? Is trash talk acceptable behavior for today's youth?

Should players and coaches be required to shake hands after a game?
That's Debatable (Hot Topics)
St. John's men's basketball team under Rick Pitino will no longer shake hands in a line after games. "I certainly have great respect for the coaches and teams we play but after witnessing multiple problems with the postgame handshake line, we will take a page out of the NBA playbook and refrain," Pitino said in a message on social media. Have you experienced problems with the handshake line? Should the handshake line tradition be preserved? Or should coaches be allowed to opt their team out?
