I don't think either coach should be proud of the way they handled themselves. Screaming their heads off at 8th graders like the outcome really matters in a game that was never close. Disgusting displays which unfortunately are all too common in this division with both coaches and parents. I ould have thought that these two guys would have had enough games under their belts as players and coaches to know how to act. [/quote]

To be clear getting vocal at some points in the game with young player is not the problem. It’s expected and essential. If you can’t stomach that then get out of the game. For a grown adult to name call a young teenage is something that can not be tolerated. My son confirmed on the ride home that the fat comment did happen.... I did not hear it during the game but I spent most of that game talking with a lot of friends in the lax community.. The most shameful part of the entire situation is not one coach, ref, or parent did not step in to say that is wrong for a coach to name call and bully a child..... Shameful that parents sat on their hands and allowed a grown man to bully a kid in a public forum. If I would have heard it let it be known I would have marched over to that sideline and called him out for that BS. Dude better hope he has a good dentist if he pulls that garbage in front of me.... weak parents for allowing this man to do this....
