A must read for Grandparents. Those who aren't, will love it, too.
At one point during a game, the coach called one of his 9-year-old
baseball players aside and asked, "Do you understand what cooperation
is? What a team is?"
The little boy nodded in the affirmative.
"Do you understand that what matters is whether we win or lose
together as a team?"
The little boy nodded yes.
"So," the coach continued, "I'm sure you know, when an out is called,
you shouldn't argue, curse, attack the umpire, or call him a
pecker-head. Do you understand all that?"
Again the little boy nodded.
He continued, "And when I take you out of the game so another boy gets a
chance to play, it's not good sportsmanship to call your coach a dumb
ass is it?"
Again the little boy nodded.
(wait...here it comes...)
"Good," said the coach. "Now go over there and explain all that to your grandfather!".
