Coaches, everybody looks at their bright side, the side that every one is winning games thanks to the coaches and everybody is learning. Yeah, it is not that bright after all. Practice, ugh, horrible, pain, sweat, they make your life miserable. It makes you want to miss practice. Coaches start insulting you and start hitting you in the helmet. While running what seems thousands and thousands of laps you turn your head and see the coaches laughing at you and suddenly they change their faces to a frown and get mad with you, without any one doing something. An example is this.
ex. "Man, I'm so tired, I can't even breath, we have been running the whole day!" I softly say those words to my friend that is running right next to me. As soon as my friend starts to speak, the coach magically hears it and says:
"Paulo, what did you just say?" Crossing his arms.
"N-Nothing coach."
"Give me twenty push ups, come on! 1........2.......3......4......5.....6.....7......8....9.....9.....9.....9 Do it correctly."
"Yes coach!" He counts as slow as possible and finally finishes.
I mean we are kids! We shouldn't be running THAT much. And we have to do it every single day! The day I suddenly stop feeling my body I will blame my torturous coaches.
Someday I if I will ever be a coach, I will never treat my players so badly.
That was good. I really liked how you listed the numbers and at the end that it stayed at the number 9. So from what you said, you're confessing that practice is really tough on the players, and I understand that. It was nice that you put your thoughts in there as well. Nice job.
ReplyDeleteVery nice confession I think that you write good sport stories, And if you learn something from it then you will learn for your future
ReplyDeleteI liked it very much and I agree with you about the coaches.
