OK folks, we have our second Sports Father of the Year story from Clarksville Tennessee. It always surprises us the crap that goes on during kids sports. Last year, we had the father who pulled a gun on a ref and one who fired two coaches from his team after they dared to play his son on offense.
This year our first candidate was a Chinese father who made his daughter prepare for 2018 Olympics by running her into the ground at the age of 8. Our second candidate is a peewee baseball assistant coach who tried to pull a Latrell Sprewell on another coach after an altercation.
According to Rafael Gonzalez, he called a time-out when the opposing head coach coach Bret Wyatt improperly stopped a ball that got past the second baseman (peewee coaches stand in the field) and was talking to him when the assistant coach of the other team cursed him and brushed his shoulder. Gonzalez spit his gum at him and he went nuts and started choking him. Both were ejected but no one can track down the assistant coach to file charges because nobody knows his name.
What? How is this possible? Does this Bret Wyatt guy not know the name of his assistant coaches? Was this just some random guy coming off the street to coach a bunch of kids? Are they letting Mr. Herbert coach now? Anyway, both coaches have been tossed from the league. We’ll keep you updated on any more insane fathers.
