Is Everyone in This Town Bananas?
Husband was asked to be head coach for our children's flag football team. Only 2 kids showed up for the first game.
He sent this email out to all parents:
Hello Everyone!
Was great to meet part of the team on Saturday. Can't wait to meet the rest of the team.
We will definitely need some practice time and I'm hoping to do it this Thursday evening April 3rd at 5:30p behind Mouthbreathers* Elementary at Some Park Named After a Racist Cowboy*. It's an open field with plenty of room to practice. It would be great if some of the parents could help us on the field to get the kids acclimated to some plays.
Please confirm via email whether or not you'll be able to participate this Thursday.
Thanks everyone!
One of the absent parents sent him this reply, which copied the above email, which she obviously didn't read:
Mr. Robinson, great lack of communication.....
My husband took our son to Inferior High* Tonight, Friday. Needless to say this area's sports program might NOT be the best....
Angry Mother
PS will you be at there at 9 am Saturday, April 5th.?????????????????????????????
Oh dear God, give me strength. She mixed up the date and place and blamed Husband for it.
Wrong week to start this nonsense, sweetheart.
Can't wait to meet her in a few hours.

Im sorry, I am laughing so hard right now.
And she has children. She has actually reproduced.
(giggling some more)
To quote the vastly under rated film Back To School ...
"Violent ground acquisition games such as football is in fact a crypto-fascist metaphor for nuclear war. "
Hey, anon, I don't believe you are really astonished, I mean, come on, really? Aren't there plenty of other things in the world to use that feeling on? And, there is a girl on the team. Sexist? Hardly. Maybe most girls really don't want to play flag football.
Yeah, I can't stop naming all the famous Yiddish coaches. The parents are just waiting until someone who knows what the hell they're doing shows up, cause it isn't gonna be a Jew.
I think this thread just became a sight gag from Airplane!
Who the hell ever heard of a football player getting "acclimated".
What next: "OK, when I say we are going to "break on three", it doesn't mean go sit on the bench."
Now you understand the kind of kids on this team.
Torture.
Wow, you really need to chill out. Take a valium or something.
