If you lived in some of the places that these kids lived, profanity is the least of your worries. The only kid that you did not here a lot of that on their team, was the kid from Downers Grove North High School. For those that do not know, Downers Grove is basically a lilly white, rich area compared to the area of Chicago that some of these kids grew up in. They see things much more horrible than the coach using the F word.

I used to work on the South Side of Chicago in a retail store, and you see much worse than what you hear on that show. I worked in Englewood, one of the worse areas in Chicago and cursing was not a big problem. Not necessarily where these kids lived that are on the show, but shootings, drug dealers, robbery, gangs, crack houses are much more of the norm. So I believe that the usage of the language has a reflection of the type of environment that these kids come from.

It really is not an excuse, but it is an explaination.
