WAY too many false starts. Pretty fishy that it was announced it was supposed to start today (after many promises week after week that it would be "next week"), and then only a last minute email on Sunday afternoon yet again that tonight's games are cancelled after all. I'd be willing to bet no games ever take place.
Does it occur to him that girls have organized their weekend schedules around this, foregoing other activities or even work, so they could participate? That they may have participated in other leagues instead had they known better?
My daughter had planned on going to her game straight from work today, and was saved a long wasted trip to the rink only because a friend thought to text her as she was leaving.
If he failed to organize it, why can't he just say so, without waiting every time until the last minute to admit it?
I was willing to give the guy some slack given an unexpected death in the family (yes, I have actually been through it myself). But we all face difficulties we must find a way to deal with and a responsibility to not expect everyone else to unnecessarily shoulder the collateral damage we cause as a result. At this point it appears this is merely being used as an excuse and a crutch--or else his coping skills are so badly affected by this that professional psychological help truly is in order.
If you are not in a mental state to take the most basic care of business, have you ever heard of delegating responsibility to someone else? I'm sure there are others who would gladly help out to pick up the pieces and actually execute a program for these players, for what's left of the summer. Just ask. |
