Outdoor Life: Role reversal is a big change for old coach
Alvin Richardson
Alvin Richardson
I am currently going through one of those inevitable life cycle changes and it is quite fascinating in some respects. I’ve gone from a coach/teacher/discipline administrator and overall servant of the people to a domestic servant of extraordinary talents. For 36 years, my job description included stuff like coach the football team, get hollered at by irate fans who wanted me to call for pass plays instead of running plays, teach both the motivated and unmotivated students of the world, put little Johnny in ISS for behaving inappropriately at school, have conferences with annoyed parents who didn’t believe little Johnny deserved to be boxed up in ISS, and touring the high school halls in search of miscreants intent on skipping class.
