I don't see any big deal with this. I remember when I was in high school and on the JV Football team, there was this one kid on the varsity team who was slow as hell, funny looking as hell, .... (come to think of it he was most likely mentally deficient) anyway, this guy was clearly the worst athlete on the team and a major joke. He was only on it because here in New York City, there are no 'tryouts' for football teams, you join if you feel like it. I remember we used to take the same bus home and everyday he would tell me about the coaches refusing to give him a chance. All the time. Every single day. And if you ever seen the way he looked in pads, or ran, you'd keep him off the field too. Annoying as hell. So I can't necessarily say that what they did to the kid was wrong especially since it was reported that even the kid who carried around the team's bags got an award. These things happen.
