Classless Act in my opinion

[GrTigers6]

At our jv game against Kennedale last night, The coach was trash talking to my son while he is getting set up for the next play. Saying things like tell your coach to shut up and that we better be ready tomorrow, and several others. I think that is not right. And the line judge should of stepped in and told him to stop. Or is that just me?

"Tell your coach to shut up" sounds like pretty good evidence that YOUR coach was also involved in the classless talking!!!!!!!!!!!!

he was talking to the ref who couldnt see an obvious offsides

That's just you... what your son should have done was flip the bird and while the coach was standing there with his jaw open, throw a very tight spiral into it. :D

I just don't see Barrett letting his staff act like that....

I've seen coaches talk like that before to kids on the opposing team. Although I don't agree with it, the kid has to learn how to tune it out and play ball.

I'll say things like "he's too slow, burn him deep" to a WR with the DB within earshot, but it's usually on screen and draw plays.

It is classless but it does happen. Just ignore it and play your game to shut him up! I know as a parent how you feel tho...

You'd be surprised how often things like that work. Calling out the wrong route, yelling to kick it into the endzone when it's an onside kick, etc...

I just thought it was kinda childish. and I dont have a problem with him talking until he starts talking specificaly to a certain player. I have heard coaches say " ok now this guy here has no speed so play him close" or something similar. Thats part of the game but talking to them directly is just unsportsmanlike in my opinion

He just thought it was funny that a coach would do that. He is used to it from the players.

Sounds like your coaches and kids better be ready!
