Oh boy - I can hardly wait

I am looking at a similar situation in our local rec league, which starts Monday.
We have a guy returning after being absent a couple of years. You know the guy. The most ignorant, yet most vocal, all in the same package. In his last stint as coach, he came to the officials after the game to tell them "You guys need to watch the game closer." No kidding. It is a new season. The slate is clean. Perhaps we are all older and wiser. But when you go into the neighborhood with the biting dog, one cannot be blamed for carrying a stick.

It's a shame our leagues don't get enough "volunteers" where we can tell "these guys," uh, thank you but no.

We do have one rec league where I put the hammer down to a coach many yrs ago who has mellowed with age.....and it's nice!
