yeah, it's on the news since it was on caught on video. I think it happens more then we hear and it's ruining youth sports. A coach of an opposing team once grabbed the arm of one of my son's team players and almost started a brawl. The kids were 8 freakin years old.

He should have been flattened by his OWN FATHER (who is probably absent in his life), but judging by his behavior neither of his own f**king DNA donors have bothered to actually parent him. Sadly someone else's parent did a little parenting.

Second, I like how they've glossed over the fact that this other team "had a pattern of making late hits". Should be easy enough to pull the stats on late hit penalties. Another fine half-a** job by another POS reporter. Maybe journalism classes actually ARE full of meathead idiots.

As a youth coach this chit pisses me off. Parents are the cause of this not the kids. There is a growing problem in youth sports with the parents driving the behaviour. Coaches feel like they have to put up with agressive parents because the parents kid is usually the best one on the field and the coach wants to win.

I may never win a state championship but we will do it the right way or not at all.

I'm proud to be a WSU basketball fan. It's a great program and went to the sweet 16 last year. KU got beat in the first round by a team that WSU took two out of three from. KSU didn't even get an NIT bid and Mizzou and Oklahoma and Nebraska all either sucked and didn't do anything during the season or got their shite packed early in the tournament. The results speak for themselves and WSU will be a more talented team this upcoming season. So what's your point? or are you just gonna sit in the flatlands of KS and whack your pee pee?

Yeah, my first impression when I saw it on the news was, "wow, that was a cheap shot by that punk."

I would have ran right by the kid and went for his coach. That was a dirty play from behind after the whistle. He targeted someone half his size. And he intended to do exactly what he did. You could tell by the way he strutted off. That kid's coach should have been out on the field yanking him from the game by his earhole and embarassing him in front of the crowd. But he was probably too busy enjoying the cheap shot himself.

...unless the kid in question is twice the size of any of the kids on your team. Then if the other kid's parents and coaches don't seem to give a crap what are you supposed to do?

Oh, the ref was going to throw a flag. Whoop-de-freaking-do. This little turd should be thrown out of the league and never allowed back in, but you KNOW that won't happen.

Someone needed to put a stop to this mini-Romo before he got any more aggressive. What's sad for society is that his own coaches and parents weren't willing to teach him that lesson.

This is actually my thoughts exactly. There is very little you can do if the parents or coaches of the other team don't care. ( I teach so I see this all the time.) You cannot take matters into your own hands though if you are an adult. For the kid it is a slap on the wrist. For an adult its jail time. This thug will get his once he's in high school and tries the same thing on someone out of the football arena. Say hello to Bubba your new cell mate. He's real friendly like.

Jesus, it's tackle football, not ballet. Late hits happen a lot, especially on STs plays. It's not like he dove at the kid's knee or something.

Yes. Yes. Yes. Instead of talking about who should be kicking whos ass let the referees handle the situation. Flag him or throw him out. There's no need to escalate the situation.

Maybe we could have the dad of the kid who gets hit by the other dad come out and shoot the attacking dad in the face for a really nice conclusion.

Three comments.

1. The guy that hit the kid was wrong. Let the ref handle it, or if the ref isn't handling it, pull the team off the field and file a complaint with the league.

2. It's absolutely ridiculous to be charging the guy with felony child abuse.

3. If he really thought that the thug kid was being a thug, there's a time-honored tradition for handling this. Run a play right at the guy, get someone to stand him up, and have a couple of other players dive on his knees. Every team should have a "Broncos, on three" play in their playbook for these situations. It solves the problem for the rest of the season.

I don't understand how people can defend that adult's actions. Sure the kid made a late hit that was probably a cheap shot. But he's a 13 year old kid, and kids are stupid like that.

First, I don't think the guy should have nailed a 13yo kid. What none of us know, and some have asked about, is how many cheap shots this 13yo turd has taken on players this year, the year before, etc. It may well be that the coach has tried to handle it the right way for years but the league, the other coach, and the kid's parents didn't bother to take care of it.

I could just as easily speculate that this kid up until this point has been every parents dream, and that it was just so noisy at the game that he didn't hear the whistle.

We almost had a brawl in our soccer league, and our league is for THREE TO FIVE YEAR OLDS.

One kid, who was bigger than all of the other kids, was running down and tackling our kids. In some cases, the ball was at the other end of the field.

Our coach did the right thing and pulled our team off the field. Of course, part of that is because 3-year old soccer is 3-on-3 and two of our kids were bawling their eyes out.

At that point, the opposing team's coach (who also happened to be the thug kid's dad) started screaming at our coach about "penalizing the kids" and "wasting everyone's time". It got pretty heated and several of the parents on our side were ready to let him have it. We finally just all packed up and left.

Anybody that is sticking up for the coach/parent is thinking with their internet brain, and is out of touch with reality. If one of my kids got hit late and the other team had been making that a habit, I would have stopped the game and addressed the ref's and opposing coaches. Not only was he wrong for hitting the kid, he was also wrong as a coach if he watched other kids get hit late as part of this "habit", but didn't act upon it until his own child was hit late. As a coach you have to take complete reponsibilty for every kid on the field, not just your own.

After coaching 3 years of T-ball, 1 basketball, and just starting my first football season, I have only had one instance that I had to step in and take action with a coach/parent. In our first game this summer our third baseman was standing right on the baseline and was in the way of the runner. The runner came running into third, and they did a little shuffle dance trying to get out of each others way. Their third base coach told his runner that "you don't run around the fielder, you run through them". I had used the same rule with my kids teaching them that you stay out of the way so that you don't get run into, but obviously never instructed a 6 year old in a rec league to run down another kindergartener.

I stopped the game, approached the coach, and calmly belittled him in front of everybody, loud enough for the crowd to hear as many of the parent heard his instructions. I waited about 30 seconds before I said anything though, and made sure that I was completely cool and prepared to do the right thing. If I would have jumped down the guys throat and he ran his mouth, it could of very easily escalated and gotten out of hand.

At that point, the opposing team's coach (who also happened to be the thug kid's dad) started screaming at our coach about "penalizing the kids" and "wasting everyone's time". It got pretty heated and several of the parents on our side were ready to let him have it. We finally just all packed up and left.

I had similar situations in my daughters kindergarten soccer league. It seems sometimes the parents of the bigger, more aggresive kids seem oblivious to their kids behavior because they're too busy day dreaming about their kid playing soccer on scholarship at Syracuse.

...unless the kid in question is twice the size of any of the kids on your team. Then if the other kid's parents and coaches don't seem to give a crap what are you supposed to do?

Oh, the ref was going to throw a flag. Whoop-de-freaking-do. This little turd should be thrown out of the league and never allowed back in, but you KNOW that won't happen.

Someone needed to put a stop to this mini-Romo before he got any more aggressive. What's sad for society is that his own coaches and parents weren't willing to teach him that lesson.It seems pretty clear that you never played football. You can always put a big guy on the ground. A high-low combo block is one option.

Anybody that is sticking up for the coach/parent is thinking with their internet brain, and is out of touch with reality.

Agreed. I can't imagine any of us, no matter how stupid a thing our kid just did, would not go ballistic if an adult physically got into it with them.

First, I don't think the guy should have nailed a 13yo kid. What none of us know, and some have asked about, is how many cheap shots this 13yo turd has taken on players this year, the year before, etc. It may well be that the coach has tried to handle it the right way for years but the league, the other coach, and the kid's parents didn't bother to take care of it.Could the late hit have been retaliation? Surely you considered that possibility. I put a corner on the ground in HS for a cheap shot he put on our QB. The play was going the other direction, I "missed" my assignment, and got yelled at in film. I'd guess it happens more than one might expect.

Well, this kids dad was obviously an ex-jock or hyper-competitive or something. He threw a fit when they stopped the clock and when the parents on our side got on him about it, he got physically confrontational.

My daughter is like me - slow, marginally athletic, and easily bored. She'd rather play video game soccer than real soccer most of the time. She plays soccer because she has fun with her teammates, not because she's good at it. Having ADHD Fred running around hurting people ruins it...

I can't believe how some of the people have reacted to the actions of the kid, as if that's the story.

You are suffering from little man's syndrome. That's ok, and it's fully understandable knowing that you follow Commuter State University.

I'm just giving you $hit. I know the true WSU fans have a puffy chest over that Sweet 16 bid and all - deservedly so. That's a nice little accomplishment for your Program.........


Aww shucks, thanks for throwing me a bone. Now I'll be able to sleep well. :)

That would be well worth the price of admission to witness that.....especially if he lays out a Bronco or Raidah


At least in that scenario they'd all be adults. I'm not quite getting some of you guys. An eye for an eye cheap shot retaliation is really only acceptable among players. Coaches should never go on the field. Would you really want Herm running out onto the field ala Woody Hayes trying to strangle Jake Plummer? (ok, I know it's tempting to say yes, so change Plummer to say Big Ben) It's a low rent move fellas and when you add the fact that the coach is a 30 something man and the kid is what 8 or 10 years old its BS. The kid should of been yanked off the field by his coach for the cheap shot and forced to apologize after the game to the other kid.

that hit wasn't even that late.

We almost had a brawl in our soccer league, and our league is for THREE TO FIVE YEAR OLDS.

One kid, who was bigger than all of the other kids, was running down and tackling our kids. In some cases, the ball was at the other end of the field.

Our coach did the right thing and pulled our team off the field. Of course, part of that is because 3-year old soccer is 3-on-3 and two of our kids were bawling their eyes out.

At that point, the opposing team's coach (who also happened to be the thug kid's dad) started screaming at our coach about "penalizing the kids" and "wasting everyone's time". It got pretty heated and several of the parents on our side were ready to let him have it. We finally just all packed up and left.

This is off-topic, but can a three year-old even understand rules yet? I don't have kids, so I don't know.

What I thought spoke volumes about the video, and pardon me if it's already been addressed, is the wussy little retreat he does when he sees the ref coming at him. Then to escape over the fence? If I were angry enough to attack a kid on a field, I'd have to be so berserk that I would lose all concern for safety and take on all comers whether it was a sure fired ass-beating or not.

That parent should be banned from school sports for his entire life. Not even believable that he was a coach.

The hit wasn't even late or a bad one, boohoo some kid got knocked to the ground. It's football not chess! Get up grab a buddy and take the guy out on the next play. Smaller or not, one go high one go low. Make him think about it next time.

How about high school? Would you run on the field then as well?

What's this question got to do with the incident?

In the incident with my son's soccer team, the opposing coach (who grabbed our player's arm) had the kid's older brother held back from him and after alot of yelling between parents on both sides, the confrontation ended. But, we reported the team and the incident to the Arena management (was an indoor soccer game) and they promptly did ZILCH.

That is the problem with situations like this. Unless they are caught on tape, as was the one described in the article, it's just easier for them to go away. Out of sight, out of mind...

Bullshit. Mean little kids grow up to be nasty adults. Were you never a child? That rotten little cheapshot bastard deserved to get flatened. But he should have been flatened by ANOTHER KID, not the friggin coach.You should have seen this chit. It was on good day today with some stringy broad info babe, interviewing this kid this morning.

Pussyfication of America is what this is.

Do I justify the Coaches actions, by no means, he crossed the line.

But let's disect this a bit.

One, the kid put a cheap shot on one of this coaches players, and then walked away like it was nothing.

Two, the kid had helmet and pads on, and the coach pushed him to the ground, nothing more than that kid could expect in a full contact football game.

Three, the instigator kids' parents have him on national TV today complaigning about it, him sitting inbetween them, 2 females. When asked by the News anchor, I could see a snicker forming in the wry little circles of his mouth.

This is all about getting paid IMO.

Where is this kids father. If he were mine, he would get a late hit when he got home, and there would be no more to talk about. You wouldn't see me on TV raising hell over it. A simple apology from the Coach to my face, and my son would suffice.

We all have lost in in the heat of battle, I wouldn't want to ruin a guys life over something I am sure he feels stupid over.

Where is the emotional scarring that this kid will suffer from this?

I just don't see it.

Pussification, and getting paid, that is what this is all about.

The Coach should be fired, and forced to do some community service, but I can't see him doing jail time over this, as these two broads want.

He should have been flattened by his OWN FATHER (who is probably absent in his life), but judging by his behavior neither of his own f**king DNA donors have bothered to actually parent him. Sadly someone else's parent did a little parenting.

Second, I like how they've glossed over the fact that this other team "had a pattern of making late hits". Should be easy enough to pull the stats on late hit penalties. Another fine half-a** job by another POS reporter. Maybe journalism classes actually ARE full of meathead idiots.I said exactly this before I read down to here.
