First let me say that I totally understand that culling photos is ultimately a personal decision. But since I've started shooting sports (roller derby to be precise) my total yearly shots have gone from roughly 2,500/yr to 10,500+ so far this year.
Yes, I ditch all the "bad" (out of focus, underexposed, etc) right off the rip, but it's obviously not a deep enough cull. What other criteria do you use to help you decide what to delete on the second or third round of culling? Do you keep just photos that are going to be post processed? Are you keeping ones that are "alright"? Do you hang onto shots that "might" be useful later? Where is your discard line in the sand?
