Soccer game - They lost...again. On a disturbing note, Scott got a nasty gram from one of the kids mom's who said he was the most negative coach her kids have ever had in their 8 years of AYSO soccer and if he didn't change his ways she was pulling both of her kids from the team. With 2 games left. WTF??? I kind of knew this may be coming since I saw this mom chewing the assistant coach a new one during the game. The moms I was sitting with were like, what's her problem?

Scott originally had 15 kids on the team. He would not accept another one because it is mathematically impossible to give more than 15 kids the minimum playing time if they all show up. There are usually 9 kids at practice. He had to add Seth to the team who has never played soccer and who doesn't even live in Mira Mesa so he would have 11 to even play the game.

Scott lives for coaching. He is not negative but as a good coach should, he points out what the kids are doing wrong as well as what they are doing right. He is loud and he is passionate. At 13 and 14 years old, these boys (and mostly their parents) need to grow up, get on their big boy pants and play soccer. Its not like they are 7 and 8 and they should get a medal for just showing up. UGH! Grow a pair people and thicken up your skin. I'm not bring lollipops next week.

It is what it is...
Namaste
