I mean... Sounds like the parent is doing the right thing (being interested in their kid's sport) but for the wrong reason?

And this is the real cynic in me, but the dad will be enthusiastic about going to Little Timmy's games, and in the end, that's probably all Little Timmy wants: some time with dad where dad's happy to be with him.

That's actually pretty optimistic. Good outcomes for everyone regardless of motive.

Yep I don't see anything wrong with it. All the kids know is someone is cheering for them and that their dads are there way more often and more involved than ever. It's a win win...
