Paul?...Paul? Oh, I remember him. Wasn't he one of those parents who would get real nasty toward the umpires and opponents from behind the backstop? After a while, he took over as coach and was just as ornery and abusive in that position.

I understand that he got tossed so often, he gave up coaching and tried to become an umpire.

I hear his conversion went well and he might get a national this year. His only problem now is a weakness he shares with his buddy. Peter and Paul have some type of self-control deficiency when it comes to coconut and chocolate.
