I don't think its conference thing. Its a generational thing. You can go to a local E/D tournament and you will find guys puffed up talking sh*t starting fights and generally acting up. League is no different because its made up of softball players that play tournaments. Respect, social awareness and manners are a thing of the past. Everyone is a snowflake and special now and rules shouldn't apply to then. Discipline and punishment have a fine line. Gone are the days where your parents would get in your a$$ right in the middle of the store, and straighten you out. You yell at your kid now in public and you might get the cops called on you for abuse.
