What’s the best most clever trash talk you’ve heard from your kids or the opposing team’s kids during a game?
Didn’t want to hijack the other thread but the stories were pretty funny.

Kind of a "fail" trash talk moment (or team really). Our first game this year, we played a really, really bad team. We won 49-0 or something like that (pulled most of our starters early in the 3rd quarter). On the field, their DE's were chirping at us all game that we couldn't block them, and kept saying they're "coming for you RB/QB." As the game went on, they continued chirping about how we couldn't block them. Even after the game at our social together, they kept going on about how they were burning our tackles, and coming in free all game...they were "just missing" our "super fast" QB and RB (Our QB is not that fast). - We ran "wedge" from a 10 personnel set 20+ times and were averaging about 8-10 yards per carry...
- Our base run play other than wedge was zone read.
We intentionally weren't blocking their DE's.This gets better... Two weeks later, we play the same team again. In the third quarter, they ran a "center sneak." The center snapped the ball, QB tapped it, and the center kept and ran it. The center proceeded to run for about 50+ yards. A couple of their players (already down by 50+ points) came running to our sideline trash talking about how they got us, and we didn't see it coming. Took them about 30 seconds to realize the flag was thrown and it was an illegal play. I remember seeing one of our players walking back with her arm around the center (like buddy buddy) kindly reminding them that that was totally illegal. The really sad part was we learned their HC actually installed and coached them to run this play, and he was hooting and hollering as crazy as they were when they ran it. The team is frankly an embarrassment to our league. The next game against another team they ran "blitz 11" the whole second half. |

Not during a game, but this was on Twitter.
We were on the bus back from playing our arch rival. It's a big, big deal in those communities with a massive trophy that travels back and forth to the winning school and gets a new plaque added each year with the victor and score on it.
The other team had been doing a lot of trash talking all week about how this was going to be their year, despite losing like 10 straight, but then we went and beat them by about 50.
On the way back, one of their dudes was licking his wounds on Twitter and tweeted out:
"It's ok we didn't win. I still got God. 100%"
Our RB responded "I got God, too. And a trophy!" He tweeted out a pic of himself posing with the trophy on their field in front of the scoreboard.
Savage.

Our QB in 2019 and 2020 was probably the best trash talker I’ve been around. Never was penalized
Best thing he did was after the covid break he told a defensive lineman on our rival team (their best one, we couldn’t hardly block him the year prior) that he had gotten really fat and the kid slammed his helmet in the ground and got a flag thrown on him and chewed out by their staff and he was a non factor all night after that.

I don't know about the best trash talk but I've seen the worst.
In a small college game a guy got flagged for unsportsmanlike. It was between plays so it had to be trash talk. Thing is, they were playing Gallaudet, a school for the deaf. Don't know what he said, just that he cost his team 15 yards talking chit to a guy who couldn't hear him.

We played against CSU-Mesa in 2016, coached by Russ Martin. I have no problem naming names because to this day I have never seen a bigger disgrace to team sports than this group that showed up at our place. The minute they got off the bus it was non-stop, just the worst {censored} you can imagine. Fans walking by got it, women and children were not spared. We used female athletes from other sports as ballgirls and several of them were in tears on their sideline in the first half. It was gruesome.
Among the worst was a tall, all-conference CB that spent most of his time yelling at us during warmups, then talking to our sideline. The kid he covered ended up 7 yards shy of the school record for receiving yards in a game (207 or something) and he pulled himself early in the 4th quarter. I don't believe he played for Mesa again.
They showed up ranked and undefeated and left with a loss. I will never forget that game.

Coaching at a small school in a game a few years back. They got a kid out their who is chirping it up pretty bad; good player making lots of plays but just getting in our kid's faces and running his mouth every chance he can get. Since its a small school, our parents arent separated by much from the field, so one of our dad's starts getting vocal at the kid.
Now I have to walk over to dad to get him to cool it, when kid blurts back at him, "shut up old man, what are you like 30?" Mind you dad was in his mid to late 40s, but kid has no clue. I tell dad to take the complement and keep his mouth shut, the admin laughed at the de facto complement as well and brought it up all the time.
Worst situation, a few years back, a team in our league got a new HC who brought in a bunch of new players and kind of let them do what they want. One of them was out of control with his attitude. Would insult everyone in our family, drop racial comments, whatever he could. We played them around week 7, and lost, but we were both head and shoulders above everyone else in our state division, so we figured we'd meet 'em again in the state finals. Oddly enough, every week after we played them (playoffs included) the HC of their recent opponent would call our HC about the kid, 'why he's allowed to do it', 'why our league lets him get away with this', 'can we report this to state', etc. I'm talking every week.
Sure enough, after the season our league boots them, so the next season they are playing an independent schedule (trash talker is back as a senior). Sure enough, week two the next week I see in the news they got in a huge brawl, it was all over the news and youtube- both sidelines empty, game ends in a double forfeit both teams have to forfeit their next game. When you watch the video, sure enough kid is right in the middle of it; come to find out he was the instigator of the whole thing. HC ends up getting canned at the end of the season, one year after winning it all.

We were playing the team in the next town over, they were awful, had been 1-9, 2-8 for the last 4-5 years. We show up and one of their corners is wearing Superman socks with the capes. He is talking $h!t to our receivers all night, the funny thing was we did not throw the ball once the entire game. We were a triple option team and they had no idea how to stop midline or Inside veer. We ran for over 500 yards and beat them 49-6 (they had their starters in the entire second half and scored on our "special kids", they failed on the 2-point conversion) with our starters playing one series in the second half. But this kid ran his mouth all night. At one point our 2nd or 3rd string receiver pancaked him on an outside run. Our receiver got up and told him that he had nothing to talk about, the opposing player then shot back with "none of you have a catch on me!" Our entire sideline busted up laughing, we couldn't help it at that point it was so ridiculous.

A story about some "organized" trash-talking (unbeknownst to the coaching staff): The week before a cross-town rivalry game, one of our CBs asked if they could use the terms "Cheetah Girl", "Spicy" and some others for our dummy calls that week on defense. None of them were inappropriate, the kids always set their own and we didn't think anything of it. We wondered if something was up when some of the boys couldn't stop giggling during team sessions while making this call, but again, we shook it off. Long story short, the opposing QB (who was having an exceptional year) uncharacteristically threw three INTs against us and just had an awful game. We could see he was rattled from the start of the game but we had no idea what was going on. But, after each INT or bad pass, the boys would crank up the dummy calls more. As it turns out, the QB was dating our CB's cousin. And, unfortunately for the QB, the CB's cousin had told him all about the opposing QB's pet names for her ("Cheetah Girl", "Spicy", etc). So, every one of our dummy calls that night was incredibly personal for that poor kid.  |

Not from us but from another coach.
They would find out the other teams girlfriends’ names and use them as dummy calls on offense.
I don’t remember if it was an opposing player or coach but they had been talking trash through text or social media. They took screenshots and blew them up to use as picture boards during the game.
Another team uses the WWE “suck it” gesture for taking a knee.

I found this out after the season was over. First game of the season. We go on to win state this year and ironically, play the same team in the state finals. Anyways, some of the guys on the other team were praying together as we were walking out to the field to warmup. The best player I will ever coach and a legitimate alpha badass, tells those guys huddled up and praying, "God can't even save you from this ass-whooping." He backed up. 28-0 at half and we called the dogs off at 35-0.

Was coaching against a team that had Arnold Schwarzenegger's kid on it. Position group jokingly had the one liners ready:
The obvious was if you made a play against him, "I'll be back", although if you beat him with your speed, "Hasta La Vista Baby" was fair game. If you laid him out, "Get Down" could be used; and if you hit him real hard you could ask him if his head hurt, followed by "its not a tumor."
Sadly/luckily, he didn't suit up against us.

Just watched predator the other day…Classic. Never has a bigger group of bada$$es ever been assembled. Probably the most quotable action movie of all time |

I was a junior OG. Team we were playing rolled out a 150 lbs NG who was quick but was struggling against the wedge play.
He was chippy, and I almost never talked, but this game I got him twice.
The first one…..you should know I was kind of psycho who painted his fingernails the team colors of our opponent…….this kid sees it and goes: “nice fingernails”
Me: “you like that”
Him: “my girlfriend likes to paint her nails”
Me: “I know what else your girlfriend likes”
My center almost false started he was laughing so hard.
Same game, and we had ran wedge 4 times in a row for 40+ yards…..I looked at that kid pre-snap and said, “we’ve ran the same play 4 times in a row. We are getting ready to run it again, and there is nothing you can do to stop it”……..touchdown

When I was in college we played a team who had a stud MLB (turns out he was roided up but different conversation). We were a triple team so down on the GL it was basically toss, follow, or sneak. We called sneak on 1st down from the 1 and he tried to time up the snap and jump over the center. Well we had a long cadence on so he came over the top and smoked me. Got up talking about how scared I was to take the snap. Our OC who was and still is a very spiteful man continued to call sneak and this guys continued to try and time the snap up... after 4 or 5 offsides in a row the ref finally flagged him for unsportsmanlike.
Not because he kept doing it but because every time he got up and talked about how afraid we were to just run it at him. Finally we went quick count and our G/C/G tripled him down and in the pile it was just 3 OL screaming in his face with a variety of insults and obscenities. By the 3rd or 4th offside I was laughing so hard I couldn't get the cadence out.

Few stories for this thread:
Last season we were playing our big rival in the de-facto conference championship game. One of their corners makes a big play on the sideline and starts whooping up to their crowd. Well it didn't help that their crowd was behind our bench so he got a penalty for cheering at our sideline.
Back in 2018 I was a HC in Iowa and we were playing the best school in district. They had a literal psycho at MLB who kept making plays all over the field. Finally he made a play on our sideline and dropped a "Eff you guys" in front of our staff. I wasn't even mad because I knew the kid would go nuts all the time. Just alerted the refs and the kid actually apologized to us after the game.
As for my playing days the best one I had was from my semi-pro days. We were rolling a team and the guard and tackle next to me were literally giggling the entire game at the stuff they were saying. At one point they pancaked the poor nose and all I hear is our guard yelling "are those your keys in your pocket?!" very loudly...It was hard to snap the next play

I will preface this by saying, I wouldn't condone cheap shots in a game. Social media has changed trash talking so much in athletics its actually embarassing. During 2-a-days, we bring in someone who is an HR professional who talks about how they will actually background search social media pages of prospective employees and they have actually denied hiring potential employees of 10+ years old pictures posted to MySpace! But anyway, I like to think it serves its purposes as best as it can in todays age.
So our opponent was not necessarily a huge rival of ours, but a league opponent, and the one opponent we have been playing longer than anyone in school history which we will call School B. This was during the 2018 season. At this school, I was the building sub, in addition to some other roles like dealing with discipline for the student-athletes and supervising lunches. On the Monday of the week before playing this team, one of their star players decided to put a picture online from 9/11 with the airplane hitting one of the towers with the team logo on it, and the towers having our team logo and helmet on them. Why? I don't know, it might have been one of the dumbest examples of social media trash talking I have ever seen. Anyway, he then puts a message directed at our stud defensive end (who now plays college baseball and broke the school record for 15 sacks in a season) saying something along the lines of we will take you out just like them. Why an American would choose to use such a terrible day in American history to talk trash about a high school football game I will never understand. This also made it quite personal for our defensive end (well actually most of our team, but out DE in particular) because his father was in the military and had several close calls following his deployment post 9/11. His father would actually return home, join the reserves, and become principal of our school at the time! So this happens on a Monday, on Tuesday, school B brings this kid into their AD's office and he admits to posting this picture/message as a joke. Their AD was an assistant football coach and we were notified that evening that the young man who was also a good offensive linemman/defensive end for school B will be suspended a quarter and apoligize to our team following the game on Friday. Our Principal, AD, and myself thought it was a joke. My AD was also my defensive coordinator FYI. Since many of our parents had seen the infamous message from the player from School B, they wanted to know what School B was doing about this incredibly stupid act. In consultation with those above my paygrade, the Athletic Department said that the opposing student-athlete would be suspended an unknown length of time.
Still, we knew things could get ugly, and our superintendent may have overeacted, but regardless decided to bring in extra security for that night's game. While School B's player who posted the message was never named, word quickly traveled and I just said no comment we are focused on the game. Needless to say when our parents and fans knew about the incident and who the offending player was. Fast forward to Friday in the 2nd quarter, when the opposing dumb@ss was finally allowed to play, he was placed on their kickoff return team. I reminded our kids to maintain their composure and they will not do anything to embarass our program or school, regardless of how BS the entire situation was. Well right before halftime, one of our players went down with bad cramps. Thinking nothing of it, I plugged in the first sub which happened to be the young man on our team who was the target of the stupid social media message. He plays both ways, every snap of the game, so I tried to limit his time on special teams but with it being cramps, I figured ok lets just plug him in for now.
The lightbulb or "oh sh!t" alarm is not going off for me yet until right before the ref blows his whistle to signal that the 2nd half opening kickoff can take place. I see our stud defensive end switch spots with another kid so it was him and one of his good friends, a tough wrestler kid on the kickoff team. As the kicker begins his approach to the ball, I realize what is about to occur, "oh sh*t "Johnny" and "Timmy" are about to." and thats when I see/hear the BOOM! Our two kids had sprinted down on kickoff, and at full speed, hit Donny Dumb@ss who put the stupid post on social media as hard as they can, making him do this almost backflip type reaction on their way to cleaning up their kickoff returner, stuffign him on the -32yard line. Our crowd erupts, our sideline erupts, all I can do is think oh sh*t I might be fired but needless to say it was one of the hardest hits I have seen in high school football. Donny Dumb@ss from School B was slow to get up, and walked to the opposing sideline and did not return to the game. Stupid social media post or not, I was glad the kid wasn't hurt but my goodness did he ever pay for his stupidity!
The next week, I would get called into the AD's office where I am "questioned" if I ordered this and on the record I explain the turn of events and that was end of it. After the season was over, the boys would explain to me once they say Donny Dumb@ss on kickoff return, they hatched their plan to get a piece of the dummy and boy did they ever! We never did get our apology either

We played against CSU-Mesa in 2016, coached by Russ Martin. I have no problem naming names because to this day I have never seen a bigger disgrace to team sports than this group that showed up at our place. The minute they got off the bus it was non-stop, just the worst {censored} you can imagine. Fans walking by got it, women and children were not spared. We used female athletes from other sports as ballgirls and several of them were in tears on their sideline in the first half. It was gruesome. Among the worst was a tall, all-conference CB that spent most of his time yelling at us during warmups, then talking to our sideline. The kid he covered ended up 7 yards shy of the school record for receiving yards in a game (207 or something) and he pulled himself early in the 4th quarter. I don't believe he played for Mesa again. They showed up ranked and undefeated and left with a loss. I will never forget that game. I got a similar story from my first year. The #4 team came to play us at home. They were walking around with swagger like the Miami Hurricanes of the 80: and taunting our players and parents from the sideline and between every play. We noticed on film they were a spread team who couldn’t pass for chit, so we lined up in a 5-2 Cov. 0 and held them to a total of 6 offensive yards for the game. If it wasn’t for a busted play it would have been about -52 total offensive yards. They quickly got frustrated and lost their minds. They tore up the fence on the visitor sideline and chucked our bench over it, breaking it. We had to stop the game for about 45 minutes after one of their players hit an electrical panel with his helmet, breaking our scoreboard. On the way out they trashed the locker room and threatened some girls. The final bill came to about $11k, IIRC. The school agreed to pay it. |

Fail: 7 on 7 tournament and we played in the Twin Cities. We aren't from Minnesota. We beat a team after a few controversial calls went our way and a kid starts yelling at us about how they will still be playing in dome come play off time and we will be sitting at home. Except that was the year they demolished the Metrodome.
