I haven’t finished watching the entire episode, but I enjoyed the side convo with Donnie and Sammy regarding his interactions as a father, good stuff guys and good off script questions by Sammy.
Right? Donnie is a cool dad.

@samsncharge99 did you get paid as a referee with those kids before? or it's volunteer thing?

I wanna say we got paid very small amounts. But even like $25/game as a teenager was great. doing an activity we would do for free

it's like when I played trumpet in the pep band for Siena Saints and got paid for something I would easily do for free

How did you get exposed to soccer at an early age?

Franz and I was talking the other day about how hard it is to become a soccer ref. So as a teenager, how did you deal with those angry parents when they didn't agree with your call? haha.

I got into it just from school and my parents having me try new sports. I played soccer all the way to my mid 20s playing indoor soccer. I haven't played since like 2016ish or so. been a while

referring is fun b/c you have 2 sides to choose from....the parents yelling at you....or the coaches yelling at you

my buddy threw a parent out of the game. RED CARD!!!! sometimes you have to take control and not allow parents to yell at you let alone the other kids

That explains why you are updated with all major soccer events.

Haha yeah, you can't make both parties happy. Parents should just enjoy the game and teach little ones good sportsmanship. The problem is they all get carried away by the excitement and intensity of the game.
