My wife write the holiday messages from our CEO. We had an unusual argument about her Father’s Day message. It included those “who are father figures like coaches and teachers.”
I asked “are fathers so rare these days that the soccer coach is considered the equal?”
Or is this just “nice guy” day?
Maybe hallmark needs to invent “ Mentor’s Day”
Butch Jones (former University of Tennessee football coach) had said a few years ago that 62 of 108 players had grown up without a father.
He didn’t explain that any further...he might have meant “over the previous two seasons,” crossing out duplicates.
Scholarships are limited to 85 players in any one season.
