WWYD and how to explain this to DS

Anonymous
OP stated the team is NOT in the DMV. Still very vague details but call out the program zero tolerance and could be a learning moment for the players. A coach who ignores this should not be coaching young men

the problem with "zero tolerance" is that it ignores all the nuance and assumes the whites are bad, blacks are victims, whatever was said/done was racially motivated, and that everything is crystal clear. that makes for good political drama, but in real life, adolescent boys, black and white, generally get along, but all of them, black and white, say and do dumb things occasionally.

crickets

this was either a complete troll, or a semi-troll that presented the story in a one sided way. since the OP has gone dark, we will never know, but at least we have four pages of soapbox and grandstanding about zero tolerance!
