I don't understand why the comment was necessary. I can't think of a gym that wouldn't think they are the best in their area/state ect. Of course you think your program is the best, that's why you're there. It's just classless and tacky to post a comment like that. When kids make stupid comments, as much as I disagree and hate it, you chalk it up to being a kid. He's an adult, who should know better. His athletes will follow his lead.
I think at this point they just don't care what they do on social media. If the owners and coaches don't care then the athletes won't care either and we're going to keep seeing rude tweets and comments. I used to get so frustrated as a coach when my athletes posted drinking pictures as it was underage. They got talked to a few times but as a coach I can't decide to kick off an athlete so I would mention it and whatever the program manager or owner decided to do was their business. I stopped following certain athletes on twitter so that I wouldn't see it. If there parents knew about it I certainly wasn't going to concern myself unless it directly hindered a practice.
No, most athletes are taught by their coaches to clap and cheer for other teams not to boo. There are some though that the parents even boo so the kids just do the same thing. Most coaches don't really tolerate that kind of lack of showmanship behaviour.
I saw he liked it...I probably would've too. But there's no need for a dig. Guy is excited about his program and his showcase. Orby's comment was tacky and uncalled for.this might be some friendly rivalry dig. this is a like in reference to orby's comment...
I didn't screen shot the comments under the 2 posts by Brendan, but I think we can safely assume they aren't friends
I agree it was uncalled for regardless of whether or not they're friends. It just looks bad either way. Also lots of coaches are "friends" but not friends if you know what I mean. Anyway whatever..some people will make excuses for some people no matter what. I get sipping on the cali sparking juice but jeese.
were these made on twitter or facebook. just curious
Facebook. Looks like it's been removed.
I didn't know that! I thought the comment had been removed. Good to know.
