Camp Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 He was probably a sub-par employee and they used this as the final opportunity to get rid of him. Just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPieter Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 This week I assigned my Algebra class 21 problems for homework. One of the boys whined, "Aww, can't we just do the odd numbers?" I told him to, "...man up and do the work." Hopefully I'll still have a job come Monday. I like that the fired coach's team won the game! Guess they had what it took.

Lutter Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 All but one player followed the coach's instructions, Hartnett said. The team won the game. Hmmm... wonder who filed the complaint? I don't understand what is so sooo offensive. If I were the coach I would've have even apologized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHiL Posted February 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Yea I remember My high-school coach saying some sick things to players.. It just fired us up for the upcoming match/game.. No one went back and ratted on the coach. Guess the one who ratted just wasn't good enough to be a team player:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Man. Since when can't a coach yell at his boys for being pussies? Isn't that what coaches do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberwoo Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Are you guys serious? "He then required his players to all stand up and put their hands down their pants and check their manhood, If a coach told my kid to do that I'd be pretty pissed. A high school coaches job has less to do with the sport they are coaching and more to do with stressing a good work ethic, working together as a team, etc. They should be a role model for those soon to be young men. If your manhood hinges on winning a basketball game than you have some serious issues. Had a coach said this when I was in HS I would have walked out. I'm the last guy to get offended by something someone says but I also recognize what is in poor taste and what isn't. This coach obviously used horrible judgement and has his priorities way off. When you are dealing with kids you have alot more responsability then just winning a freaking basketball game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
