I just had to share: With summer workouts starting, we're getting physical forms in from parents. One of the questions parents must answer on the form is about Family History: "Has any family member had a sudden, unexpected death before age 50?" to which the parent checked yes. Under that it says "Elaborate on any yes answers", so the parent writes "Great uncle stabbed in the chest"
I love my job

Had a friend who coaches middle school football in Alabama. Had a first time player who's mom answered "Medications Taken Regularly?" question with Flintstone vitamins!
Best part is the kid stuck with it and became one of his best players!

Just last week we caught a freshmen who filled out his own physical form. Got caught because he wrote that he was 6 foot 10 inches tall. LOL.

That's awesome. Unfortunately I'm at a private school now, I don't have any kids that will provide those kinds of stories anymore. It's a sad day. I miss that. Bullchit. You'll miss for all of about five minutes. You're still in a state of shock, realizing how good you have it. ; )

One time I had a kid miss a practice on Thursday. His mom calls me that night and says-
"Sorry Fred couldn't be at practice he had to go to the doctor."
Me- "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope everything's Ok."
"Ya. They said Fred's got the diabetus. But he should be over it by Monday and be back at practice."
I just said Ok and hung up the phone.

I don't know. I asked my 2 safeties the other day "one of you two need to call coverage...what's your GPA?" safety #1 said "3.8" I asked the other "what's your GPA?" safety #2 said "4.0" I didn't have an intelligent quip for those answers. I've never had that problem before. My previous school all I heard was "IDK...I'm eligible" Yeah, but intelligence doesn't eliminate dopiness. One of the smartest kids I've ever coached, in his first JV game the ref dropped his flag for a penalty and the kid picked it up saying, "Excuse me Sir, you dropped this". He was serious but it took some fast talking for the JV coach to convince the official of that.

Had a surprise last year: Under "Medications" somebody wrote "Birth control". One of our female managers who also plays another sport got her form filed with ours (it was a surprise because we hadn't had any girls signed up to play). .
