Chill out!

When I am not doing the history professor thing, I ref football games part-time.  I usually am at high school games but I also referee parks and rec games.  Those kid tend to be around ten years old.

I am a ref and I am astounded by the amount of yelling the coaches and parents direct at the kids.  It can't be a lot of fun for them.  Maybe there is a lot of over competitiveness or maybe that is the way it has always been, but it still seems a little over the top.

Chill out, pal, they are just kids.  Let them have some fun.

It's just a game and the kids are like ten.  It's not the Super  Bowl.

Let's just have some fun.
