Well someone has to teach these high school kids that “if you’re not first, you’re last” you have to “wake up in the morning and piss excellence.” You call it harsh, I call it preparing them for the real world. He should of made them run 100 laps around the burned trophies. If they accept being 3rd place now they’ll be 3rd place in life. I’m just kidding a little bit but click below to read the story.
After a five-year winning streak, parents are claiming that one youth football team’s loss in this year’s semi-finals resulted in coaches burning the players’ trophies and yelling obscenities in front of the team during a year-end party. According to multiple sources, coaches of the New Canaan Youth Football 8th Grade Black team took part in the incident after the team came in third place in their division. According to a parent and one of the players, who spoke to the Advertiser on condition of anonymity, the children had just been given their third place trophies at an end-of-the-year party on Wahackme Road on Saturday, November 19, when Coach Rod Fox told the children to walk over to Irwin Park to “do Indian runs.” Once there, they said, the children were asked to throw their trophies into a pile, at which point Fox and coaches Jay Pirrone and David Jahns allegedly poured gasoline over the trophies, yelling an obscenity. “Clearly, this is wholly inappropriate conduct and frankly should never happen again,” Williams told the Advertiser. “Having said that, I think the individuals involved understood they made a mistake. My understanding is that they will be appropriately disciplined by their league.”
