This past weekend, the Hey Coach Tony show on a local Connecticut radio station devoted an entire hour to discussing one of MomsTeam's most popular articles: the one listing questions to ask youth sports coaches at the pre-season meeting with parents.
In case you don't know about Coach Tony, he is what I would call a "guy's guy": a tough-talking "shock
jock"-type of radio host who tends to shoot
from the hip, and with a reputation for disdaining political correctness
and for using outdated terms for people he doesn't like (I cringed while listening to an earlier show when he used the word
"retarded" and "retard' more than a dozen times to describe a person he
did not care for).
This past weekend, the Hey Coach Tony show on ESPN Radio devoted an entire hour to discussing one of MomsTeam's most popular articles: the one listing questions for parents to ask at a pre-season meeting. Particularly instructive was the way he
chose to end his show: with an email from a listener saying that parents who ask
questions will be labeled
as troublemakers.
