All for having to run laps...... Both of them are stupid, to have let it go that far.

How many times in football did you have to run laps? I'm guessing a lot, like everyone else. Chances are the coach is having him run laps, not only to punish him for being late, but also because everyone else is in the middle of running plays or drills, so he is having the kid run for a few minutes till he can fit the kid back into practice.

I remember when the coach ran out of stuff for us to do, it was always "run laps". I'm sure it was not that big of deal for the kid. If he doesn't wanna run laps, he shouldn't be playing football. I wonder, if everyone posted the estimated number of laps we had to run in football practice, what would be the average? I'm guessing several hundred per season.

But as adults they definitely should not have let is escalate that far, especially in front of the kids. I feel sorry for the kid, "haha your dad got beat up by the coach" is all he will hear for a while.
