Another disgrace in front of kids!
« on: October 15, 2012, 06:30:57 PM »
Now this one sickens the stomach just a tad.  This jack@## should be thrown in jail and NEVER allowed to come within a half mile of a youth football field.  EVER!

Such a good example for the kids, huh?  Whenever I see stuff like that I'm tempted to say "Look at all these adults, acting like children" but then I realize I've never actually seen children act like that.

I liked how the white hat was marching the U off the field. He was doing a good job of keeping his man under control and not escalating the situation. You can later see the U arguing with some people.
One nice thing to see is the comments linked to the video were overwhelmingly positive towards the ref - no 'he got what he deserved' comments.

I can't believe he was actually coaching with his criminal record. Wow.

How the hell is a guy with an indecent exposure conviction coaching children, anyway?

Miami, Florida. Felony charges for every coach or spectator that participated and assaulted the official. That's right ..... felony charges. New law in Florida.

In our Youth Conference there must be a police presence during the last three games of the night. We've been yelled at by spectators when heading to the locker room on a Friday Night. One of our Police escorts usually excuses himself as he breaks to explain the felony charges that can be made for those who either verbally or physically assualt any sports official.

If too far out of hand and threatening .... yes. Cops will usually just go over and explain the law regarding the berating or assault of officials.
