Wow, what a dick. Its his league and since his son didn't play he fired them. He seems like a guy who is desperately in need of a good hard kick in the nuts, maybe four or five.
That is disgusting. I feel sorry for his kid. And of course all the other kids, and the coach etc. But damn, at least they have the knowledge that they don't have an asshole for a father.
The ultimate "take my ball and bat and go home if you don't do what I want" guy. I see serious payback brewing. Serious, intergenerational payback. The kind that makes you specify cremation in a will you hire a Philadelphia lawyer to draft and hold, and tell your Swiss doctors about, on your deathbed, so even your ashes don't get sent back home. 'Cause the son of that prick is bound to fuck up ol' overcontrolling Dad, come time. You know it.
Brilliant, so now not only is the team not playing, his son isn't playing. Kind of ruins the "this entire league exists so he can play defense on the best team in his weight class. . . . He is my son, I own the league, and he plays every snap on defense" line, doesn't it? Way to show how much you love your son, by humiliating him on an international scale.
This is one of the best and worst stories I've read this year. The kids had such class in refusing to accept a replacement coach - the evil guy is so evil that it simply beggars belief.
I wish that something like this could never happen.
