- 0:19Speaker 2: call a youth football coach who's concerned about some changes
- 0:22Speaker 2: that are being made to the upcoming season. Okay, apparently
- 0:25Speaker 2: he's been getting a lot of complaints from concerned parents
- 0:28Speaker 2: that the game is just too violent and too dangerous.
- 0:32Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, it makes sense.
- 0:33Speaker 2: You got to protect the kiddos. Well, the assistant to
- 0:36Speaker 2: the superintendent is stepping in to tell me about the
- 0:40Speaker 2: new kid friendly rule changes. Oh, I think he's gonna
- 0:44Speaker 2: love it. I'm sure. No, he actually might kill me.
- 0:48Speaker 2: It's your phone tap right after.
- 0:50Speaker 1: This another.
- 0:52Speaker 2: Mornings on the twenties. Well, Hi, I'm looking to speak
- 0:58Speaker 2: with coach Michael.
- 1:00Speaker 3: This is coach Who's this?
- 1:02Speaker 2: My name is mel Lester. I'm the assistant to the superintendent.
- 1:05Speaker 2: How are you today?
- 1:07Speaker 3: I'm doing well? How are you well?
- 1:09Speaker 2: I'm doing a Okay, Mike, thanks for asking. I know
- 1:12Speaker 2: we haven't spoken before, but you know, since the football
- 1:15Speaker 2: season is going to be starting up soon, Superintendent Shaw
- 1:18Speaker 2: wanted me to reach out to all the coaches.
- 1:19Speaker 3: And have a little chat and chat about what.
- 1:23Speaker 2: So it turns out some of the parents have been
- 1:25Speaker 2: complaining about a few of the things in the game.
- 1:28Speaker 2: So we're going to be making a couple rule changes
- 1:30Speaker 2: for the upcoming season.
- 1:32Speaker 3: So you're just listening to the parents, You're not going
- 1:35Speaker 3: to listen to the coaches.
- 1:36Speaker 2: Well, I mean, if we didn't hear them out first,
- 1:38Speaker 2: then they wouldn't have their kids come out to play.
- 1:41Speaker 2: So we kind of had to I guess, well, I'm
- 1:45Speaker 2: glad you understand, coach. But as you know, there's a
- 1:48Speaker 2: lot of parents nowadays who think the sport's a little
- 1:51Speaker 2: too violent.
- 1:53Speaker 3: They're not going to stop us from tackling each other.
- 1:56Speaker 2: No, no, I mean not yet at least, but just
- 1:59Speaker 2: to help with the op dicks of the sport, we're
- 2:01Speaker 2: gonna have to change the term tackle to something else,
- 2:04Speaker 2: something a little softer. Change tackle, because you know it
- 2:08Speaker 2: sounds kind of aggressive. So instead, when you're teaching the kids,
- 2:11Speaker 2: instead of saying tackle from now on, you'll need to
- 2:14Speaker 2: say happy hug, happy hug. So instead of saying go
- 2:19Speaker 2: tackle him, I need you to motivate your players by
- 2:21Speaker 2: telling him to hug the stuffing out of that kid.
- 2:25Speaker 3: Do you know how asinine this sounds?
- 2:29Speaker 2: I do, trust me, But you know how the parents
- 2:31Speaker 2: are now, the.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Parents shouldn't be running the game. This is football an
- 2:35Speaker 3: American tradition.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Well, it can still be an American tradition. But we're
- 2:40Speaker 2: just gonna have a few slight, teens, tiny switches to it.
- 2:43Speaker 2: That's all you're telling me.
- 2:44Speaker 3: There's more, there's happy hugs, and there's more.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Yeah. Also, the parents are a little worried that the
- 2:50Speaker 2: game's too risky from a speed standpoint, So we're not
- 2:54Speaker 2: gonna be able to do that anymore. To what run?
- 2:59Speaker 2: You know we can't have the running What.
- 3:01Speaker 3: Do you mean they can't run?
- 3:03Speaker 2: Well, we just we need to slow it down just
- 3:05Speaker 2: a little bit. That's why players in our league are
- 3:08Speaker 2: only going to be able to move at a brisk walk.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Are you serious? I'm maybe a skip, but anything faster
- 3:14Speaker 2: than that they're going to get penalized.
- 3:16Speaker 3: I'm not telling my players to walk briskly, or even
- 3:19Speaker 3: walk faster. That's not football.
- 3:21Speaker 2: I'm with you. I'm with you, coach. I mean, we're
- 3:23Speaker 2: just lucky that the beach ball rule didn't get past
- 3:25Speaker 2: because that was a close one. What some of the
- 3:28Speaker 2: parents were suggesting that we use a beach ball instead
- 3:31Speaker 2: of a football. You know, it's a lot less pointy,
- 3:33Speaker 2: it's non threatening.
- 3:35Speaker 3: Hell, get the hell out of here. Well a beach ball.
- 3:38Speaker 2: A coach, I agree with you, and we all agree
- 3:41Speaker 2: to get.
- 3:41Speaker 3: Your head out of you. I'm at a breaking point
- 3:43Speaker 3: with this. Are you kidding me?
- 3:46Speaker 2: Coach? I think this kind of talk from you, this
- 3:49Speaker 2: aggressive talk, that's what the parents don't like football. So look, coach,
- 3:56Speaker 2: I understand that you're upset, but the way you're speaking
- 3:58Speaker 2: to me right now, it's bringing back a lot of
- 4:00Speaker 2: negative memories from my father.
- 4:02Speaker 4: Oh well, that is not my responsibility. I am a
- 4:06Speaker 4: damn football coach. And the day I will ever set
- 4:09Speaker 4: foot on the field where kids are hitting beatballs and
- 4:13Speaker 4: they're hunting each other is the day I'm done. You
- 4:17Speaker 4: hear me, This conversation is over. You can run it
- 4:20Speaker 4: off the superintendent.
- 4:22Speaker 3: I don't get a flying what's the damn is so funny?
- 4:28Speaker 3: And why are you laughing. You think this is some
- 4:31Speaker 3: kind of joke.
- 4:33Speaker 2: I do think it's kind of a joke.
- 4:35Speaker 3: Well, I don't. You're talking about my career son.
- 4:39Speaker 4: No.
- 4:40Speaker 2: The reasonhy I say it's a joke is because I'm
- 4:42Speaker 2: not really calling from the school.
- 4:44Speaker 3: My name is Where the hell are you calling from?
- 4:46Speaker 3: I'll tell you right now. I got your phone number.
- 4:49Speaker 2: I have your number two because my name's Jeffrey from

- 4:55Speaker 4: Kid out. You're kidding with me.
- 5:00Speaker 2: I am kidding. This is all prank. Your wife, Shelby,
- 5:03Speaker 2: said that you were a little worried about coming back
- 5:05Speaker 2: to coach.
- 5:11Speaker 4: Sorry.
- 5:11Speaker 2: She thought it would be really funny to mess with you.
- 5:13Speaker 2: She knows you're really passionate about football.
- 5:18Speaker 3: When you said was about the reason was like.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Rather your neck of peace, as long as did it
