The Psycho Assistant Soccer Coach has struck again.
Busy Boy had soccer practice tonight. The head coach has a son a a couple of years older than The Preschooler Formerly Known as Busy Baby, and, though kind of cute, is a brat and a half. Psycho Assistant Coach has a son on the team, plus another who is Busy Girl's age. Brat Boy and Psycho's older son were kind of playing around, when Brat Boy threw a golf ball at older son. Unfortunately, it hit older son right in the elbow on the nerve and it hurt very badly and he cried. After I figured out that he was OK, he made his way over to the practice and his father (Psycho Assistant Coach) asked what happened, so he told him.
I was on the sideline with Brat Boy and The Preschooler Formerly Known as Busy Baby when Psycho Assistant Coach looked our way and began to walk toward us. Ya'll, he thought The Preschooler Formerly Known as Busy Baby had done it, and, he was getting ready to go after him. I am not joking. He managed to contain himself long enough for me to say what had happened, and, you could tell he was trying to keep himself from chasing after Brat Boy. I stared him down for what seemed like several minutes (but, probably wasn't) before he got a grip and went back to the practice.
This man is not right.

You're not kidding he's "not right". He should NOT be coaching kids!
I'm thinking Busy Dad needs to get busy kicking his ass!!! I can't believe he was going to go after PFKABB. I wonder if he would have went after his own brat kid with as much enthusiasm? Maybe you need to report him to the soccer council or whoever those people are that control that stuff.
Wow. I would have been pissed. Thank God you were there to see what happened. Is there any one you can turn him into so they can review his pyscho behavoir watched?
You know, as I read this I feel eternally grateful that Kel was only in swimming until it got to that "just a little too competitive" for her stage. My nephew is a little freak protege' athelete so that whole family is stuck running from sport to sport year round and dealing with all of the mega hyper parents and coaches. More power to ya busy family.
That said, I was just sitting here gazing at your profile. You and I are the same age and I have one kid - just turned 18 (phew) and graduates soon. No wonder you are busy. I think I'd curl up under the blankies in the morning and just stay there. Yikes.
I'm always a bit leary of those competitive sports dads--there's something a bit off about how seriously they take the gameplay of the knee-biters. That said, at least the guy managed to contain himself, thanks to your minutes-long stare-down. Brat Boy's folks should be grateful you were there.
I love that you stared him down. I have this picture of a crazy self obsessed man (far to easy to conjur) cowering at your feet while you're holding a tray of drinks.
Wow-- I was about to complain that no coach at all showed up for the 7 year old practice last night, but at least there were no attacks on the soccer field!
Who are these people on the soccer field and which rock did they crawl out from under?
Oh yeah, everyone wants that guy coaching their kids...uh huh. I think maybe a call to the head guy/gal to come down on the sly and check out the crazy coach is in order...
I am so glad you are a good parent and you stay for practice. Who knows what crazy man would do if there weren't eyes on him the whole time.
Not only should he not be coaching kids - he obviously needs medication.
Wow! He does sound like he has problems! Scary!
What's scary is not that he's coaching but that he's breeding.
-G
Oh that is just creepy. He should totally not be coaching.
Stick a kbob skewer up his ass and call it done. I can't believe they let people like that interact with kids... well, um, yes I can. We had the psycho cheer coach from HeLLo last year.
Any chance you can find a different day, different field? When this guy goes off, it will not be pr etty.
Bet their home is just a bundle of fun at night. We were just talking about "these kind" of parents in Bible study this AM. Some therapist will be making some bucks off these kids when they are old enough to realize their parent was/is an as, er, donkey.
Perhaps for an end-of-season gift, you can get him a free session on anger management?
The biggest problem in the entire situation is that Psycho Assistant Coach is allowed to breed. Creatures like that shouldn't procreate.
My gracious. That man needs someone to take him down a notch or two. Sigh. Are there parents at every practice? I hope so. I would hate to see how he acts to the kids if and when there are no adults around to keep him in line.
Maybe you should start twirling your karate black belt when he comes walking towards you again.
Our coaches told us it is about "not pushing the kids." The kids who like it and haave the natural ability will eventually rise up - all will be encouraged. BTW, these are two professional soccer players who just do it for the kids and the love of the game, now.
You can't be 77453 serious?!?
