[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get this.....

There this way out of control dad (His son plays on same team)  that constantly tells my friend's son (BTW- he is one of the best and fastest on the team) Anyway, the mom feels kind of like an outsider (single female) plus all the dad's all get together on buddy up on the sidelines, etc.. She tries to keep her distance after some of the conversations by this group but there's that one dad that is a real jerk. We were at a game last weekend and he said to my friends son "Get to the ball ___!!!" (this is pretty much every game) Now he only does this to her son, we haven't heard him yell this to any other players. Finally she said to this jerk that she had had enough of his crap, etc... I was pretty proud of her for standing her ground.  :mrgreen: [/quote]

Good for her. It’s really inappropriate when parents direct players on the pitch, especially kids who aren’t their own. Not on topic for this thread but I also hate when parents talk with each other about individual kids on the team. [/quote]

Overall just BAD SOCCER ENVIRONMENT. He sounds like a typical loser.[/quote]

Agreed.  We have a fat dad like that on our team who admittedly never played the sport, but is an expert on all things soccer.  I’m a female D1 player which he does not know. I never have volunteered that I played.  I did tell him to shut up at one tournament final because he was messing with the kids on the field who were trying to listen to their coach.  I never ever yell directions on the field to my kid let alone anyone else’s. It takes a special kind of @sshole to yell criticism at somebody else’s kid or audibly sigh when they make a mistake.[/quote]
