During a Little League game, the team coach said to one of his players, “Do you understand what cooperation is?”

The little tyke said, “Yes sir.”

“And do you know what a team is?” the coach asked.

The little boy nodded, “Yes.”

The coach wend on, “And do you understand that what matters is that we learn teamwork and good sportsmanship?”

The little boy again  nodded affirmatively.

Then  the coach said, “And do you understand that when a strike is called or you’re called out at  base, you don’t curse or attack the umpire?  Do you agree with all that?”

Again the little boy nodded yes.

“Good,” said the coach, pointing at the bleachers, “Now go over there and explain it to your mother.”
