The Coach

Dupontster

Would THIS face lie?
At one point during a game, the coach called one
of his 9-year-old baseball players aside and asked, "Do you
understand what cooperation is? What a team is?"

The little boy nodded in the affirmative.

"Do you understand that what matters is whether we win or
lose together as a team?"

The little boy nodded yes.

"So," the coach continued, "I'm sure you know, when an out
is called, you shouldn't argue, curse, attack the umpire, or
call him a pecker-head. Do you understand all that?"

Again the little boy nodded.

He continued, "And when I take you out of the game so
another boy gets a chance to play, it's not good
sportsmanship to call your coach "a dumb #######" is it?"

Again the little boy nodded.

"Good," said the coach. "Now go over there and explain all
that to your grandmother.
