Groups > The Truth Box

How can a team you coach play one of the toughest teams i your conference one night---and beat them, then the next piss down their leg with an okay team? Can someone tell me that? When this happens it's like I have two different groups of girls on the floor!

Good question. I bet alot of proffessional athelete team's would love to know the answer to this question. Alot of times people underestimate there opponent and all of a sudden you get the where the hell did that come from mentality as you get your butt beat lol.. I think in sports the game focus of every game is to approach them like they are the best of the best and prepare in that way. What do you think staciepmt?

I agree, and I specifically warned them about that;obviously my pep talk didn't take. They are kids, after all, but if the ass beating taughtthem a lesson of any kind, hopefully the mental one was just that. We have a lot of games yet to play. We re-grouped at practice last night-they were embarrassed, humilated and disgusted with their own level of play. As the adult and their leader I didn't need to go there...., so we will start fresh next week, and begin one pay ata time again, as all sports should be played. One play, one game, one season... I hope that is what they take from this... damn kids. I am over it, I just hate to lose. It can be one of my better personality traits and one of my worst.....

My bitch of the day is...I was up all night last night due to the crazy, loud, obnoxious bass that was booming from each ghetto cruiser that passed my window!

My house is situated on a corner of a very busy street, and the sirens, and bass, and drunken idiots pounding on my door at 3 am wanting gas money, or a cigarette, (wich I have neither!) is pissing me the f**k off!

Ok, I feel much better now:)

I used to live smack in the middle of downtown in a busy college-kid-infested city. I found that keeping music playing softly, near my bed, seemed to mask the other noises enough that they didn't interfere with my sleep. Barring that, I've heard that earplugs work well too. :-)

Those damn people putting up half naked ava-tarts of themselves. Damn OTG.

Did somebody call me? I AM the BOD!
