Thank you fellow parents for another few tournament weekends of proving that we parents are some of the dumbest soccer people around.
Anyone else have fun/stupid parent fail stories from the last few weeks of tournaments. Wow I have heard some doozies over the past few weeks. My favorites are the ref bashing at the top of your lungs about fouls. This one can be heard almost every game and is becoming my favorite. "Ref you are blowing the game for us." The last time I heard it, yesterday, it is was in context to a shoulder to shoulder check at midfield where the smaller girl fell to the ground. Let's be clear about this. Your defender that didn't mark the winger who scored a goal blew the game for you. Not gaining a free kick at midfield that was just a strong shoulder to shoulder challenge at midfield and the ref calling it correctly. Hangs head in shame that is was a parent on my team that yelled it.
