I could try to think if a funny way to say that but it's almost too true to be funny. As long as the coach is blaming the ref, he doesn't have to face the truth. And kids learn that quickly, too. "If the refs would just start doing their job..." Yep, it really IS too true to be funny.

I did take his comments, along with the smilies, as a small admission of his knowledge that coaches can be the problem. Couple that with the fact that he's on this forum and willing to find out information - I think that's a good first step or two on the way to recovery!
So, does someone need a weekend?

The coaches that check in here regularly are exempt from any criticism I hand out to coaches in general. And I didn't mean to sound emotional, or upset. But, hey, I'll take a weekend, if you're handing them out!
But seriously, I think the definition of "spoiled" is the kid who always blames everything on everyone else. And it saddens me to see so many spoiled kids in basketball.
