PLEASANTVILLE, N.J. -- The coaches of a middle school basketball team who humiliated one of their players by giving him a ``crybaby award'' will likely face disciplinary action from district officials.

The 13-year-old boy's coach called him just before last month's team banquet and told him to make sure he attended because he was getting a special trophy, the boy's father said.

At the event, the boy watched as all of his Pleasantville Middle School teammates received trophies or certificates.

He was then called up to receive his award, and a coach told the crowd that the boy was being honored because ``he begged to get in the game, and all he did was whine.''

The trophy had a silver figure of a baby atop a pedestal engraved with the boy's name, which was spelled incorrectly. Family members said the teen - an honor roll student - was so embarrassed that he stayed home from school on the following Monday.

Edwin Coyle, superintendent of the Atlantic County district, said he would recommend that the unidentified coaches receive some type of punishment. He planned to address the matter at Tuesday night's Board of Education meeting.

``I was very upset and dismayed that our coaches would take an opportunity to belittle or lessen the self-esteem of our athletes,'' Coyle said.

And to quote someone's opinion of this:

If you cry and stay home from school because you were given the silver Crybaby Award, they should upgrade it to gold.

That movie was a horrible rewrite of the v4 run of The Punisher. Just, ugh. The Punisher is one of my favorite comics, and that movie did it as much justice as DareDevil's or The Hulk's movie. Spider-Man so far hasn't been killed by the Movies, and this second one looks to be much more true to the story of Parker.

Get on with the program, comics were comics, they're just that and never can be anything more.
Which is why the movies should stick to the anime/cartoon versions.
