aoberlin Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I have thought exactly this for a long time. Take these next couple days and focus on your family. They deserve you. Thank you and Merry Christmas you fellow psychopaths. Tcarter, QuinnHarris, Ahawkeye and 15 others 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crosstownrivals Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 When your 7yr old son says “ how can you go coach everyone else, but can’t come coach me….” That hits hard!!! 100% reason I stepped away from HS sports a couple of years ago.

julio Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I have been lucky to coach my brothers at River Forest, a set of cousins at Griffith, another set of cousins at Andrean. People keep wondering why I bounced around from school to school, family was the main reason and then it became all about the kids needing my help at other schools.

tyquhp13 Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I was only a volunteer coach when I did help out. My wife would ask why I was willing to not only get to the room every day, but why I would get up at 4am every saturday for months. I would just shrug my shoulders and show her a video of one of the kids face with their hand raised. MattM and Ahawkeye 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
