I might have been one of them a time or two but not directed at my own team or daughter. It would have been directed at the opposing water polo player who was pinching my daughter underwater and holding her suit so she couldn't get the ball. I might have even cheered when my daughter punched her in the face after the girl pinched her boob. But I've grown since then. But now my granddaughter is playing soccer. She's only 6 and she lives 3000 miles away.
