Bitter Ending

Yes, I am alive!!!!! I know that any of you that actually follow my wonderful blog of garbage probably were wondering if he was hit by a train, run over by a bus or just assassinated by his own team. Well, the later might have been almost true, but no, I am still alive and well.

So, you may be asking how it went. Well, it was an ugly season with an ugly ending. We ended up 6-9-2, which is really better than they deserved, but hey, the stats are what they are. As I stated in my last entry there was a lot of in fighting that I just could never get under control. So, for next year, I have put together a contract that the boys and their parents must sign which basically states that any of the garbage that happened this year, they will either sit or be kicked off the team.

We went into districts as the 6th seed which meant we would play a higher seeded team. Well, we held our own, but the center referee must have had it in for us because we were carded almost 5 to 1. That was just ridiculous. I don’t even think we had that many cards in all of our season combined. Anyway, we ended up losing 4-0 and there was almost a bench clearing fight, not to mention one of my players I had to hold back from going after the refs. Ugh!!!!

We shall see how the off season goes because I am not sure I want to go back next year. I have been offered a coaching position on the football team, which I am more familiar with anyway. I played football most of my life which I was much better at. I am not sure what position I would be coaching, I am assuming quarterback since that was my position, but we haven’t sat down to discuss it as of yet. The head football coach wanted to wait until we were done with Soccer.

So, anyway, I am back and will try to keep you posted on life and ask those pressing questions of Why are we here?
