    Hey TD: I have been meaning to ask you .. where did your son learn how to play football?  I don't recall you being a football kinda guy in school.  If I remember right, you were a baseball guy.  Whoever taught him needs a huge pat on the back because they did an excellent job!

    do you know how much he charges?
  4. I suspect I know why he got less play time down in BC, and it is a different reason that what you think.
    ===================
    doesn't matter anymore.  My son is a Senior in High School and will graduate in June one year earlier then normal.  I still see the coach because of my job and I don't hold any grudges.  His actions just proved to me what kind of person he is.  He has to live with that; not me nor my son.

    I just mentioned that because I know for a FACT that things like that happen.  The coach or coaches take a disliking to the parent(s) and take it out on the child.

    Is that what hapened in this story?  I have no idea.  I can see where the coach would get sick of the attitude of the kid and the parent and bench the kid.  At the same time, I can see where the parent is coming from.  He wants his child to play.  As my uncle used to always say: "its a sticky situation".

    my husband was planning on being there; however, shortly after I got home from work yesterday he had to bring our oldest to the ER. 
  7. I've kept my opinion to myself for a while but now I have to say something.  My two sons are very much into sports and have been since a very early age (baseball, soccer, basketball, football).  They choose to do these sports - they are never forced into it by my husband and I.  I know for a fact that some coaches are partial to their own kids.  I know for a fact that some coaches take their dislike/anger at a parent out on the child (briefly: my oldest was drafted onto a baseball team (Bridge City Pony League) because the head coach thought that I would send more business his way through my job; when I said I have no control over who gets hired for the jobs, my son was suddenly off the starting lineup and played the minimum.  I'm not stupid, I know why that happened)  Both boys have had some bad experiences and they have had some really GREAT experiences with coaches.  I have always told them that if they have an attitude then they deserve to be benched.  If they are being punished for something that I did, then I will take care of it.

    If the child was not played because of a bad attitude; then, well, so be it.  The attitude of one child can mess with the attitude of the whole team.  If the child was calling names and being rude, and was allowed to continue doing so just because he is a good player, that doesn't set a very good example for the rest of the team.  I'm sure it would make the other players ticked and then they would have an attitude then.

    If the child was not played for some personal vendetta on the coaches part, then shame on him for being so childish and selfish.  Not only are the kids playing this sport because they want to (I hope), but they PAID for the opportunity to do so.

    It really seems to me like it was a combination of the child with a bad attitude and the personal vendetta of the coach that led to the child being benched and not played as much as daddy wanted. 

    I'm glad that my son has good coaches and I have no reason to complain about how much he plays and how he is treated.

    oh my, that one actually made me laugh out loud.  You guys crack me up with all the trash talk.  To think, men say women are bad about the "cat fights".  ;D ;D ;D  I'm gonna miss you guys, I really am. :-\

    Thanks queen, but it's not trash talk...it's how we really feel.  Pity our wives...

    it's okay; I get just as fired up about football as you guys do.  I just don't understand all the stats and stuff like that so I keep my mouth shut about that when you all start talking about it  :-X.  I do get into the game though.
