- 0:27Speaker 1: do tonight?
- 0:29Speaker 2: Well, we're out for a nine donkey today for Monday,
- 0:31Speaker 2: October 26th is going to the punk ass parents responsible
- 0:34Speaker 2: for turning a three year old soccer game into a
- 0:37Speaker 2: police matter in Winter Park, Florida. Now, what does your
- 0:39Speaker 2: uncle Charlotte always say about the great state of Florida?
- 0:42Speaker 1: Say it with me.
- 0:43Speaker 2: The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and
- 0:45Speaker 2: all of Florida. And today is no exception. Now, I
- 0:48Speaker 2: need everybody to understand something before we proceed. We are
- 0:52Speaker 2: talking about a three year old here. OK, a three
- 0:55Speaker 2: year old, a little boy who probably still has accidents.
- 0:57Speaker 1: OK, a little boy was probably still potty training.
- 1:00Speaker 2: And somehow this child ended up being escorted off a
- 1:03Speaker 2: soccer field with his family by police.
- 1:06Speaker 3: Why?
- 1:06Speaker 1: Let's go to Lauren La Rosa for the report, please.
- 1:10Speaker 3: Oh, because he's good on the field. I'm sorry. I
- 1:12Speaker 3: wasn't even listening to you. But he was on the field.
- 1:16Speaker 1: He was scoring.
- 1:16Speaker 3: He was doing his thing. And the parents called the police.
- 1:21Speaker 3: And his mom, Ms. Martaja Griffin, says that they weren't
- 1:23Speaker 3: even sighted or anything.
- 1:25Speaker 1: The police came.
- 1:26Speaker 3: Basically told them that the director called, and then they
- 1:29Speaker 3: got walked off the field.
- 1:31Speaker 1: Is that what I'm supposed to do? Whatever, Lauren. I
- 1:33Speaker 1: don't know why I brought you in here. I was
- 1:35Speaker 1: texting the producers. I'm sorry.
- 1:38Speaker 2: Now, apparently, Nevada was out there busting those five-year-olds' ass.
- 1:42Speaker 2: They said the young man's footwork is crazy. Okay, he's
- 1:45Speaker 2: out there dribbling, which I didn't even know you could.
- 1:47Speaker 1: Do in soccer.
- 1:48Speaker 2: All right, scoring goals, running circles around kids two years
- 1:52Speaker 2: older than him. So some of the punk-ass opposing parents
- 1:55Speaker 2: started complaining because their children couldn't get the ball away
- 1:57Speaker 2: from him.
- 1:58Speaker 1: We have some audio from the parents of Nevada, correct?
- 2:01Speaker 2: They called the police on the three-year-old because he had
- 2:05Speaker 2: the ball for too long and nobody else can get
- 2:08Speaker 2: the ball.
- 2:09Speaker 1: So they called the police on him.
- 2:11Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, so they're wanting
- 2:13Speaker 2: you guys to head out.
- 2:14Speaker 1: So the league office is going to reach out to you.
- 2:16Speaker 1: I'd give it about a week, okay? Um, they don't
- 2:19Speaker 1: reach out by then. Maybe try and reach out to them.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Just put them up online. But you should be getting
- 2:24Speaker 1: a refund. What's his name? I can't provide that information.
- 2:27Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Now, we don't know the complete circumstances surrounding why police
- 2:32Speaker 2: were called.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Lauren, you talked to the mother, right? Yes. And there
- 2:35Speaker 1: was some discussion about whether.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Live screaming the games contributed to the dispute?
- 2:41Speaker 3: There was that, but she said to me that because
- 2:44Speaker 3: she went up and walked up to a group of
- 2:46Speaker 3: parents who were discussing her child and the fact that
- 2:47Speaker 3: he got playing time, they called police saying that she
- 2:51Speaker 3: was a disturbance.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Okay.
- 2:52Speaker 2: But once again, we don't know the complete circumstances surrounding
- 2:55Speaker 2: why police were called. But if these parents really complained
- 2:58Speaker 2: because a three year old was too good at soccer,
- 3:00Speaker 2: then it's really time for Christ to return. OK, Jesus,
- 3:03Speaker 2: I wouldn't come back either if I was you. And
- 3:05Speaker 2: I completely understand if you don't want to. But Lord,
- 3:08Speaker 2: we need you. OK, listen to all the kids out
- 3:11Speaker 2: there that can hear my voice. Don't you ever apologize
- 3:13Speaker 2: for being better than someone. OK, when did being better
- 3:16Speaker 2: than somebody change? becomes something you have to apologize for.
- 3:19Speaker 1: What kind of lesson are we teaching children with that nonsense,
- 3:22Speaker 1: all right?
- 3:23Speaker 2: If I'm watching my five-year-old get cooked by a three-year-old,
- 3:27Speaker 2: I'm not calling the police.
- 3:29Speaker 1: I'm calling a soccer coach, okay?
- 3:31Speaker 2: If your son is out there getting sautéed, stir-fried by
- 3:34Speaker 2: a three-year-old, don't hate the player, hate the game.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Hell, no need to hate at all. Just get your
- 3:40Speaker 1: child better if they can, okay?
- 3:42Speaker 2: Instead of hating, talk to Nevada's parents and ask, You know,
- 3:46Speaker 2: what drills do they have that young king doing? Okay,
- 3:49Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure out why my five-year-old is getting
- 3:51Speaker 2: crossed up by somebody who was just learning how to
- 3:53Speaker 2: use the toilet. But what I'm not going to do
- 3:56Speaker 2: is complain because somebody else's child is more talented than mine.
- 4:00Speaker 1: See, this is a problem. with some parents in this generation.
- 4:03Speaker 2: This whole participation trophy nonsense, you don't want your child
- 4:06Speaker 2: to experience disappointment, okay?
- 4:09Speaker 1: You don't want your child to lose. You don't want
- 4:10Speaker 1: your child to feel uncomfortable.
- 4:12Speaker 2: But guess what? Disappointment is a part of life, okay?
- 4:16Speaker 2: Losing is a part of life. Being around people who
- 4:18Speaker 2: are better than you at some things is a part
- 4:21Speaker 2: of life. And if you don't teach your child how
- 4:24Speaker 2: to deal with those realities when they're young, what do
- 4:26Speaker 2: you think is gonna happen when they get older?
- 4:28Speaker 1: Huh? The world doesn't owe your child a victory, okay?
- 4:31Speaker 2: Life doesn't owe your child a trophy, and the world
- 4:34Speaker 2: damn sure doesn't owe your child an easier opponent. Now,
- 4:37Speaker 2: I understand this is recreational soccer. These are little kids, okay?
- 4:40Speaker 2: The purpose is to learn, and you want to have fun.
- 4:43Speaker 2: You want to develop skills. You want to understand teamwork.
- 4:45Speaker 2: If Nevada needs to learn how to pass the ball more,
- 4:48Speaker 2: teach Nevada how to pass the ball. If the league
- 4:51Speaker 2: needs to adjust how the games are organized so everybody
- 4:54Speaker 2: gets an opportunity to participate.
- 4:56Speaker 1: Have that conversation. But don't punish a child for being talented, okay?
- 5:00Speaker 2: And don't teach other children that the solution to somebody
- 5:03Speaker 2: else's excellence is to remove that person.
- 5:06Speaker 1: That's what pisses me off about this whole situation.
- 5:08Speaker 2: Sometimes adults are so busy protecting their children's feelings that
- 5:11Speaker 2: they forget to develop their children's character. Think about what
- 5:15Speaker 2: a child learns when their parents complain because somebody else
- 5:18Speaker 2: is simply better. OK, instead of learning how to improve,
- 5:22Speaker 2: they learn how to make excuses.
- 5:24Speaker 1: All right.
- 5:24Speaker 2: Instead of learning how to compete, they learn how to complain. OK,
- 5:28Speaker 2: you don't learn how to respect somebody else's talent. You
- 5:30Speaker 2: learn to resent it. And that mentality doesn't disappear when
- 5:33Speaker 2: you become an adult. That's how you end up with
- 5:35Speaker 2: grown people who can't celebrate anybody else's success.
- 5:39Speaker 1: You just raising a generation of haters.
- 5:41Speaker 2: OK, people who see somebody doing better than them and
- 5:43Speaker 2: immediately start looking for a reason.
- 5:45Speaker 1: As to why that person doesn't deserve it.
- 5:47Speaker 2: People who would rather see somebody else bought down than
- 5:50Speaker 2: do the work necessary to elevate themselves. OK, your job
- 5:53Speaker 2: as a parent isn't to make sure your child never loses.
- 5:57Speaker 2: Your job is to make sure your child.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Knows what to do when they lose. All right. Teach
- 6:02Speaker 1: them to get back up. All right.
- 6:03Speaker 2: Teach them to practice. Teach them to congratulate, not play
- 6:06Speaker 2: a hate. Teach them that you don't have to dim.
- 6:09Speaker 1: Someone else's light in order for you to shine.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Please give the grown-ass adults who allow the children's soccer
- 6:16Speaker 2: game to escalate into a police matter the biggest hee-haw.
- 6:21Speaker 1: That's sad, man.
- 6:23Speaker 3: It is.
- 6:24Speaker 1: A bunch of hating-ass parents. And it was white. You
- 6:28Speaker 1: know what's crazy?
- 6:28Speaker 3: Yo, you know what's crazy?
- 6:30Speaker 2: And I'm not saying it's a racial component, but boy,
- 6:33Speaker 2: it gives you a nice opportunity to say hatin' ass honkies.
- 6:36Speaker 1: You know I love alliteration. Hatin' ass honkies. I ain't
- 6:38Speaker 1: gonna say it then. It's gonna mess up your honky.
- 6:42Speaker 3: The director that called the police, she said was a
- 6:44Speaker 3: black man.
- 6:45Speaker 1: Really? Yes. Really?
- 6:46Speaker 2: Yes.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Yes. Hatin' ass n-word.
- 6:53Speaker 3: You can say it no I'm trying not to say
- 6:55Speaker 3: it no more for him you can.
- 6:56Speaker 1: And that instance see that's the only but see I
- 6:58Speaker 1: always use it in this proper context yeah I ain't
- 7:00Speaker 1: never use it as a term of.
