[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just started travel this year, so maybe my expectations are off.  Wanted to get a gut check:

Spouse gets a little enthusiastic on the sidelines.  Never calls out any individual player by name (other than our kid), but may call out if the defense or offense is lacking.  Nothing mean-spirited, mostly encouragement.  Sure, there were also some private parent-to-parent conversations on the sideline that may have been more critical, but nothing loud enough for a player or even another parent in the stands to hear . . . unless they were eavesdropping.

Yesterday, after the tournament weekend, spouse gets a call from the OWNER of the club dressing him down for his sideline behavior.  Another parent on the team got the same call.  I would have thought adults could have a conversation with each other, or even with the coach, before involving the owner of the entire organization.

IS THIS NORMAL? [/quote]

Answer me this.  Is your husband's name Messi, Ronaldo, Pele or Maradona?
If not, maybe he should shut his trap?[/quote]
