[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You seem to be the same troll who had their thread pulled last weekend.  I think you are trying to incite racial tensions - stop it. It's not funny or cute.[/quote]

I have no idea what you are talking about.

My question to other parents is:  how did you deal with a coach who is not very nice in his communications with kids?  Did your child ever refuse to continue?  If the someone talked to  you like the coach talks to the kids, would you put up with it?  If so, why?  If not, did you still keep your child on the team?  Did your child become stronger as a result?  Did the coach's bark turn out to be worse than his bite?

I'm not saying remedial action is urgent.  I have just never seen a coach with so little grace around the team.  I can't imagine that complaining to the league would be beneficial.  I also hate to see my child resent or dispise his coach when he's had such awesome role models for coaches in the past.... men (and women) who really exhibited patience and positivity... who established a report with my child that made him want to do better and be better.  I can't see that happening with this guy.

Sport = soccer.

On the contrary, it's very relevant, because it goes to your credibility. No teams around the DC region have been able to practice yet due to field conditions. So, we want to know just how much of a liar you are.

I guess this is where you chime in and say you're not in DC.[/quote]
