[QUOTE="HastingsCuse, post: 806499, member: 301"]
As a parent of 3 kids spread out in age (22,17 and 10) I have coached 48 teams of youth soccer, basketball, baseball and softball since 1996.  I have never missed a game my kids played in order to watch a college or pro sporting event.   Although we have missed a couple games to travel to Syracuse as a family to go to a Cuse basketball game, or a football game at parents weekend, the kids were always with me.  When the kids were younger (12 and under) if my son or daughter wanted to go to a miss a game to attend a Cuse bball game and it wouldn't cause a problem with the team (forfeit, not a playoff game, other coach available etc) we'd go.    It's your time with your kids that important, whether at a Cuse game or his/her own game.

My oldest son's first game in the Dome at an 11 year old was Melo's last game in 2003.   We had a great time and it is probably the main reason he has a SU degree.  Go with your son, whether it's at his game or at the Cuse game.  No regrets.
