How do you teach 'sportsmanship'?
At one point during a hard-fought game, the coach called one of his 9-year-old baseball players aside and asked, 'Do you understand what cooperation is? What a team is?'
The little boy nodded in the affirmative.
'Do you understand that what matters is whether we win or lose together as a team?'
The little boy nodded yes.
'So,' the coach continued, 'I'm sure you know, when an out is called, you shouldn't argue, curse,
attack the umpire, or call him a pecker-head. . Do you understand all that?'
Again the little boy nodded.
He continued, 'And when I take you out of the game so another boy gets a chance to play, it's not good sportsman-ship to call your coach 'a dumb a$$hole' is it?'
Again the little boy nodded.
'Good,' said the coach. 'Now go over there and explain all that to your grandmother.'
