Tycho, that's why I stopped coaching at an early age.
The right thing might not be the popular thing, but as a good coach, you do the right thing.
We all know that no blanket statement can cover all coaches, players or parents. There are good
I would always choose:
a coach who values a pitcher's arm over having to deal with an angry fan.
a coach who takes the time to explain that playing time, batting order and field time is earned and lost.
a player who values his team more than his individual stats.
a player who respects the worst coach and learns from the experience.
a parent who has prepared his son to rise to a challenge, learn from a mistake, and lead by example.
a fan who can see potential in someone else's child.
Character is doing the right thing when no one (or everyone) is wathcing.
