GPA Isenburg:
Coaches who care:
-Plan Practice, give kids rides, plan duals, plan tournaments, deal with parents, deal with administration, deal with teachers, fundraise, fundraise some more, buy uniforms, grocery shop for tournaments, keep stats, go to numerous meetings, work out extra with kids, help them get down to weight in the mornings, spend 16 hour days with your kids on Saturdays and sometimes Friday, do mountains of paperwork including hydration testing, discipline, praise, tutor, and guidance counsel.
Now I know we coaches don't do much, but don't you think we might do enough to deserve a good meal at a tournament every once in a while? I don't mind seeing your rants... but you should pay to watch your kid wrestle, your kid should sacrifice during the day for a greater reward in the end, Hydration testing is a pain in the butt, but is a good thing.
I personally have pulled more weight in my life than 95% of the current wrestlers in this state. So I don't feel too sorry for them when I am eating a turkey sandwich and they are hanging out with their friends, out of trouble, at a tournament. You should be thanking us for being there, not this B.S..
