Got a phone call from JH's new flag football coach with the schedule for practices.  
Three afternoons a week at 4:30 for an hour and a half.  
Okay, well, on one of those afternoons I have a mandatory meeting until 5:00, so can I bring him late? 
This is what he says:  "Well, after you meet me, of course, I'd be willing to pick him up.  I hate to see kids neglected."
Lissenup, Coach, the kid isn't "neglected".  He might be mildly inconvenienced, but he's definitely, NOT neglected.
Someone needs a Thesaurus or something.
While I appreciate the offer of that guilt trip,  I'd rather not.  
Theeeeenx.  Okay.  Buh-bye now.

I think that would have slightly pissed me off.....
ugh. also....a little red flag came up for me....
Wow, and you're not even in Texas. In Texas, I think they'll call Child Protective Services on you if you're not on a football team by the time you're five.
not even close.
next question: is there another football coach in town? 'cause this guy just fell into the "hero and mentor" role by default.
