[RAM-A-DEVIL]

We live in the feel good world people.....Every kid is an all-star.....and everykid is the star.....Just ask their parents. I think it was said that the kids aren't as mentally tough these days. IMO the parents aren't mentally tough enough. I am one of those coaches that gets on to kids when I need too....and I too have been criticized for my coaching tactics. I get loud at times....but i have never cussed a kid or gotten on to him for no reason. Mostly I get loud because of lack of effort. i don't care if you kick the ball around all day and can't catch anything as long as you are giving full effort. 99% of the time it's the parents and not the child who has the problem with the coach. Granted.....there is that 1% of the time when the coach probably doesn't belong on the field with kids but, not often.
