Our varsity coach used to wear like orange suits and some other crazy stuff. Has a shaved head and is cross eyed to boot. I can't talk to him much because I always try to look people in the eyes and I can't do cross eyed.

The frosh coach that got kicked grabbed his own player by the arm while screaming a loud bunch of eff bombs about an out of bounds call by the refs. They echoed across the gym since not many show up for the frosh game. On his way out, he flung his clipboard across the floor to the kid manager. Then when it took him a while to find JV coach, he came back just to double check he was really booted.:rolleyes:

Random thought. I really hate when varsity boys’ game follows varsity girls’ game instead of JV boys. I swear they stop the clock in the girls game about every 10 seconds. Any contact gets whistled a foul and there are a LOT of turnovers at least at our games. Makes for a very long night.

Was the girls' team playing West Virginia? :D

In 5A, it seems like they let it be "no blood, no foul" in girls' games.

We have a relative by marriage that refs basketball games. A few years ago, Jeff Horner was coaching Valley, and he got kicked out of the game. We happened to see said relative soon after, also an ISU fan, and asked if he had heard about it. "Yeah, I was the one who tossed him." Guess Horner got a warranted technical foul, and then just started screaming f-bombs. Relative paused out of shock, and then threw him out. My memory also wants to say that he was trying not to laugh it was so absurd. (Relative trying not to laugh)

That is not acceptable at any level but especially not at that one. The new Linn-Mar girls coach (former Springville coach) is in WAY over his head. I went to a game a week or so ago and they got absolutlely throttled by another crappy team. They wouldn't be great with a different coach but I guarantee they would have won more than two games by now. It was just sad as you could see the point in the game in which he just gave up.

Don’t know if you have ever been able to key in n on football coaches, these may be the worst. We have an assistant who will drop the F word every 3-4 words. At the parent meeting the old HC justifies it by say just because a person swears doesn’t make them a better person or if someone doesn’t it doesn’t make them a better person. This meeting is just an excuse so he can make himself feel big and justify his poor actions.

MrsWx and I both worked for the football team during college. About that same time my mom's cousin had a son that was place kicker and was either being looked at or had an offer on the table from Illinois. They are VERY fundamentalist Christian and he went to a private school. They were invited down for a camp and went and this was their reaction "We couldn't believe that they would swear that much." I just laughed and said welcome to D-1 football. I didn't know mother ****** could be said so many times in a sentence until I worked around Coach Elliott.

Was making brownies the other day and goofed up and added way too much water to the recipe. Called my sister who bakes a lot, salvaged it by adding a quarter cup of flour, plus a skiff across the top and a tablespoon of cocoa. That made it about the right consistency, they turned out pretty good a little more cake like, and not quite as sweet but still plenty sweet. and about 1/3 taller than normal.

We used to say that you couldn't be a drill sergeant if you couldn't cuss in the middle of a belch or hiccup.

These aren’t Colorado brownies are they? Can’t trust recipes from there.

Saturday night, we get our daughter to sleep and my wife wants to watch a movie. I go pop some popcorn while she gets one picked out. I get back upstairs and ask what she picked out. She says, "I picked something called "Get Out". It's got 3.5 stars."

Neither of us watch horror/suspense movies normally, so I give her a sideways look. I go "You want to watch that? You know it's like a horror movie, right?" She says, "HBO is saying it's a comedy."

I shrug and let it go.

Yeah, not a comedy. lol

Critics spoke pretty highly of the film, I haven't seen it yet but would like to. LMK what you thought of it......reminded me of a time when my younger sister brought her black BF home from college, against my Mom's advice. Dad was very cool toward him, until the next morning when he (Dad) was out working in the yard and the guy came out and asked if he could help. By supper time the two of them were having a beer and laughing together.

Thought this was some Netflix and chill you were bragging about. Maybe it’s the old person version, HBO and chill?
