Hired an outside consultant to investigate? Must be some woke lawyer.

No need to hire an outside consultant. No cure for stupid.

Hope the coach never calls for a “Hail Mary”.

Why would someone want to even make a reference to Auschwitz on the field? Sometimes people can think they are untouchable and do stupid stuff like this. To even have the kids involved in this is terrible.

What did his team think and have to say about this?? Since NONE are quoted, I assume they didn’t complain and had no complaints about this perceived injustice.

If the coach called a “gulag” play, leftists wouldn’t even know what he’s referring to.

The article doesn't tell us what the reference was. The only words mentioned by the ADL were "rabbi" and "dreidel".

“Rabbi” and “dreidel” are benign, unless also used in context with “Auschwitz”, then he might have a problem. Probably not a guy you want influencing kids. At minimum, he’s weird.

>>Trestan said he was told by Antonucci that the words “rabbi” and “dreidel” were also used in Duxbury’s March 12 game against Plymouth

And this is news? and worthy of firing somehow? I don’t get it.

Maybe someone could just provide a list of words that are OK to use instead, might be easier.

I don’t understand exactly what happened. They had audibles of words like rabbi and dreidel? Weird I suppose. Why? And so what?

A dreidel or dreidle is a four-sided spinning top, played during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah.

I wonder if the coach has a sign over the gate of the training field that reads: “Work sets you free”

I guess you haven’t learned that Christianity is always fair game. The more you insult it the better you are perceived in the media.

Hired an outside consultant to investigate, after firing the coach?

That's kind of like putting the cart before the horse isn't it?

I don’t suppose he said, “Ah S#it”, and it was mis-heard?

Well the headline once again is misleading, if this is an accurate statement:

Maimaron, a special needs teacher at the school, was placed on paid administrative leave from his teaching position pending further investigation.
