On the new TV series coaching bad?

Every single one of these coaches sounded like you. In fact it was as if they were quoting you directly. Especially about running up the score and how they treat officials.

I could do without Ray Lewis, but the Dr seems to know his stuff. Each of these bad coaches has had some success but is using their attitude and abuse to cover up insecurities and hurt in their life.

Did you hook up with the volleyball coach?

We are in another legacy league so I was able to keep all of my players together and added one local kid to the league. So far theyre 8-0 in the games I have been able to set up with other coaches from other leagues and they will have about 20 of these scrimages before opening day of their league, only 18 games in this league but I expect them to win all of them

Keep up the grind there. You should be able to help make sure those kids arms are completely blown out by the time they are about 23. Hell, add some off season instruction and work in there, keep them pitching all fucking year.

Of the 13 years I coached, I had one kid that had pro potential. I coached him as a 12 year old, and his rich parents made sure he never played for me again, because I would not let him pitch as much as they wanted him too. Sent him to clinics and all kinds of private instruction, he graduated high school, floated around about 3 different ju co's, landed at George Fox and got picked up by the Diamondbacks. They sent him to single A short season, sent him to the winter leagues, then to AA, where he made 3 starts and smoked his arm away. Multiple surgeries later, he is now coaching and teaching, since he has no job skills other than baseball.

Get your whip out and make those lazy little fuckers pitch another 20 innings this week, there is a reward in the end.

You fucking moron.

I have a dad that will be behind the plate videoing every pitch and if an umps missing a few things, we'll show him the video between innings. I dont get hostile towards the ump, just want accountability and for him to not cheat my kids.

Be you get used to being told to go fuck yourself a lot with that scam right ??

I coached baseball for several years when my kids were growing up. Two of the teams I coached went undefeated, including in the playoffs. I don't think the kids had nearly as much fun on those teams as the kids did who played on teams that were competitive, but lost once in a while. Those kids learned how bitter losing tastes, and also learned how to win close games. Being on a juggernaut allows you to make mistakes that would otherwise lead to losses for a mediocre team. And, the pressure is far less for a kid who digs into the box up 17-0 in the second inning than there is on a kid who digs in with a runner at 2nd, down 2 runs in the 7th. That's a whole different bag of dicks, Schmickity.

Mega-racks for this post.

To add just a little to 88's second paragraph, it's bad enough that in team sports participant's mistakes can be minimized by the play of teammates. Add to that a situation where mistakes & failures have minimal to no consequences, and you've got a mix that allows the players to not learn from their mistakes (sorry Schmuck, truly competitive athletes will forget about those extra laps run or additional pushups soon after a game or practice; the sting of losing will stick with them for far longer).

Wolfman, your thoughts?

I wonder how soon after Adrian Peterson retires that Schuck will start recruiting him to coach at his academy.

While it's an old book, I think a lot of the principle concepts are still applicable today. I read it when I was in high school & swimming competitively, and saw quite a few behaviors described in the book happening in my sport as well as recognizing them in descriptions of coaches from classmates who played other sports:

So how come you aren't coaching in the bigs since you're such a shit hot coach? Just biding your time screaming at ten year olds while waiting for the right gig to open up?

Same reason you live in Ofailure.
