Yeah. Tonight was hard. I've been passing on HS coaching jobs to coach my son's football team. We've been really good. Started with these kids in the 2nd grade. Got to and lost the championship game that year, went undefeated the next and got bounced out of the playoffs in the first round (on the last play of the game) the next year. My son got hurt in a car accident and missed his 4th grade season but I still coached them and we got to and lost the championship game again. 5th grade is when we split into A and B groups. My son is small and was coming off a serious injury, so I went with a B team. The A team took all my best players and barely won the Championship with them. I took all the scrubs and dominated my level. We went undefeated and won the championship game. Didn't even give up a single TD all year. I'm two weeks away from the season starting and I just found out tonight that all the league rules are being bent to move my best players all up to the A team this year, even though it means I lose both of my assistant coaches.
So. . . I have two weeks to pick new coaches, teach them my offense and my defense and then teach my brand new kids how to run my plays while I'm teaching them how to play football. Have a bunch of them who haven't played football at all.
It's been a pretty crappy night for me. Oh well. I think that right about now, my wife is pissed off more than I am. She wants to go bitch out the A team coach with authority.
Damn!!
