Our high school football team recently returned from the Tennessee 1A state championship with a terrible loss. (I'm not going to tell the score.) But, that isn't the plot for this little opinion.
Before the game, the stadium at Middle Tennessee State University played ads relating to how all players should play fairly and with good conduct. That is great! Because we all know how we hate unsportsman-like conduct and sore losers. Well, before the first half, our football coach was verbally abusing the referees. Guess what! He earned a 15 yard penalty for unsportsman-like conduct. How can we expect our schools to teach kids to be good sports when their teachers can't manage to do it themselves?
I think that is is terrible that a coach should get a penalty for bad behavior.
