IN a game last night, we were about 20 minutes from a time curfew. We saw lightning strikes and got the kids off the field. We decided to suspend the game (since they have a 30 minute wait rule). Both Managers were fine with the decision. As we were walking off the field, some kid is telling his MOM that those "fags" called the game. Hearing this, I said excuse me and his Mother right away said he wasn't talking about you (who else would he be talking about???). He had the gall to say yes he was. Do you think the mother said anything. NO she did not. She did not tell him to apologize or anything. I had to pull my partner (who had the dish) away. AS we then were walking towards our car, some asst coach was screaming (to whoever was nearby) about how could we call the game. You guessed it, it was the same kids DAD. No wonder the kid lacks respect.
The sad thing was that it was a horrible game. Nothing but walks or errors. One team had only eight players (it was a league rule they could play with 8!!!). For that, they wanted to take a risk.!!!
