Unbelievable Coach

[Mark Padgett]

I would have returned an email to the coach stating that calls will be made according to the rules and that, based on my knowledge of how he coaches, I wasn't surprised that he would now have to teach his team something new.

I would then also thank him for sending me his contact info since I now would be entering that into my data bank for MLM.

Hey!!! SSSHHHH!!!

FYI.....no e-mail addresses posted and you have the option of not listing certain info.

Me? I keep moving from month to month so angry parents can't find me.

This thread raises another issue I've wondered about. Do any of you have unlisted phone numbers/addresses with the local phone company? Just finished my seventh year and have never had a problem with harassment, but let's face it...the world isn't getting more civil.

Including your own?

WOW, that's going to be one uncomfortable game for said coach & the officials too, I would imagine... especially if they lose.

It would be interesting to find out the result. A suspension of the coach for that game would seem to be appropriate.

I had a coach send me an e-mail this year asking me about OTHER officials!!! Talk about uncomfortable . . . she just wanted to be sure that she was getting "quality" officials for her upcoming game. I immediately called my assignor and let him handle it. NO WAY am I putting myself in that situation. A fewe weeks later when I actually had her for a game, I asked her nicely not to do that again. She apologized and promised it would not. Sometimes I wonder what these coaches are thinking . . . and I used to coach (Varsity Boys and Varsity Girls)!!!

hmmm... with online assigning in place most everywhere I know ADs have access to my information... phone, address, email...

So far I've never gotten more than a game date and time confirmation call/email prior to the game.

I imagine if I got an email like your buddy I would forward it to my assignor to handle, like he did.
