Wow, I can't believe this young man who gives his time and effort to coach kids was subjected to that kind of garbage from from some racist idiot. It's unfortunate and sad that still today people just can't take others for who they are and not what they look like. I really feel sorry for that guys son to have to grow up in a household of hate and ignorance. Kudo's to the coach, don't back down from idiots and continue to keep up your great work! Thanks for sharing.
