This one I really like!

HOCKEY MOMS

--------------------------

At one point during a game, the coach called one of his 7-year-old hockey

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 not whether we win or lose, but how

we play together as a team?"

The little boy nodded yes.

So," the coach continued, "I'm sure you know, when a penalty is called, you

shouldn't argue,

curse, attack the referee, or call him a pecker-head.

Do you understand all that?" Again the little boy nodded.

He continued, "And when I call you off the ice so that another boy gets a

chance to play,

it's not good sportsmanship to call your coach a dumb asshole', is it?"

Again the little boy nodded.

Good," said the coach. "Now go over there and explain all that to your

mother.
