I watched the story on ESPN this morning about the conduct of fan's at some of the college basketball games. And wonder how that behavior coukd be stopped and whose responsibility it should be to stop it.I think we decided here that irt should be the coaches job!!! I believe that when the fans start the obscene chants and the name calling that the coach of that team should call time out and address the student body at that time and tell them that either they stop it or be removed!!!
Last night at one of the local hs baseball games there was a kid that was being launching insults at the other teams players. he was sitting on the first row well within earshot of all the players and his schools coach!!(Also I believe that the player this kid was focusing on,Dad is a member of this website, a posts frequently). Several kids tried to tell this boy to knock it off but that just seemed to make him do it more. I think that if the coach had simply looked at him and gave him the be quiet sign that he would have. If not he could have told him to either leave or "come to the office" on Monday! I wish coaches or someone would step up and at least try to clean up the spectators. As one loud mouth fan can give a entire school a bad reputation!!!
Anybody else have a opinion on this story??
