Sport

Last night I witnessed a man yelling at two boys just after a football practice. The boys were around eight years old.

He wasn't yelling about their lack of enthusiasm for the practice or disregard for the coach's instructions. He was yelling at them because they kept calling over to where he was sitting and trying to draw his attention to what they were doing.

I'm not sure if the inner emotion that led to the outward display of anger was motivated by embarrassment but I'm sure it wasn't motivated by love of sport.

More like lust of sport.
