[Mr.Kimball]

I decided to start this one and see if it stays active since the shirt tuck thread.

I have made notes of teams that seem to have problems holding things together. One major fact that I have seen on and off the court are the so called JOCK who thinks a team can't survive without him shows NO RESPECT for their coach or team members. This stuff of mouthing off to a coach during practice or a game, not showing up for practice then suddenly walking in and starting a game. Whatever happen to the day of keeping a player on the bench for a game or two until they learn what COACH means. Our coaches are there to develope these young players into leaders on and off the floor. Why do you reward , unless POLITICS is in controlling you, a player who tells a coach to kiss their rear? Some player have lost respect to the teams they face,
what gives? There is a thing called sportsmenship, each member of a team deserves to be treated the same , with fairness.
So my question is it the coach who can't coach ?
Is it the spoiled brat of a person with political powers ?
WHO IS THE CAUSE of these kids showing NO RESPECT for their leaders, opposing players, other team members? Have we forgotten what the years of growing up as a team member should be teaching the students?

If it's a constant reoccuring thing, it's their parents.
