To be clear, we're talking about an assistant freshman team coach. We are not talking about THE Staples coach who has successfully run their program for years.

obviously it's bad for a high school coach/teacher to give a site password, but it would be pretty silly if he had to do any jail time over this. the bigger crime is that he's enabling the freshman's laziness. in my day we were resourceful and had to find our own , which was a lot more difficult pre-internet. today's youth take for granted that all you have to do is type "" into google. and we wonder why the younger generations never want to work for anything

LOL.

My 24 year old's line was "so by giving them the password he allowed them to watch full videos, instead of just portions that you can watch for free. How will they ever get over it."

A high school coach, teacher principal etc has a bit of a higher standard than the guy across the street. If nothing else, this guy should be arrested for stupidity. Come on. you don't do things like this. I realize that the kids can probably get it on their own, but really, use your head.

Why is it I'm thinking freshmen wouldn't "last" long enough to warrant full access. Something tells me a five minute free clip never gets past the first minute anyway.

14 year old boys trying to get a look at = normal
40 year old adult talking about with 14 year olds and sharing his access code with them = creepy

This is the opinion of the mother of a 14 year old boy.

As the dad of a 9 year old boy and 8 year old girl, I agree it's creepy but end result of the action is no harm no foul.

Going back to our day as youngins it's the difference between finding dad's stash of Playboy, Penthouse or Hustler magazines or having dad's best buddy showing you where to find them.

And my final thought/comment on this thread.

It's somewhat reassuring that 14 year kids haven't totally conquered the internet and obliviated our generation technologically. Yet.

If my kid went to band practice and came home to say the band director was talking about the sites he visited, I'd have a real problem with that. The guy works with kids and that's not the type of person I think is appropriate to be around kids in a school setting.

Why is the adult coach talking about with the kids in the first place? If you read the article, giving to underage kids is against the law. And teachers, coaches and other adults that have authority over kids are rightly held to a higher standard when it comes to protecting children.

Alright, I'll get suckered in to one more post (and you can thank the Blue Moon Winter Abbey Ale).

We both agree that adults shouldn't be discussing anything with boys regarding pornography. And after all the PSU and now SU stuff we can see how young kids can be heavily influenced by coaches.

However, there's a humongous double standard in our society that most adult men buy in to. That is, high school boys are basically a walking, living, breathing hormone. And most adult men will tell you that almost anything that results in heterosexual consensual sex or masturbation, is in the overall scheme of things, harmless.

It's why there wasn't much outrage over the hottie blonde teacher in Tampa who had sex with high school boys. Almost every adult male that talked about the story led off with comments to the effect of "wish I was one of her students". And that story is repeated nationally a couple of times every year. We had a 20 something teacher here in west Florida run off to another state with a teenager last year.

When an adult male teacher is caught with an undeage female student he's labeled (rightfully so) as a sick predator. When a female teacher does it with a male student, it's a fullfillment of a fantasy.

Nan, we guys all know it's wrong and if were our own child we'd be pissed. But from afar with no stay in the battle, we shrug it off.

It's similar to being a teenager having to lie, bribe and steal liquor as a high schooler and having the coach provide it for you.

Rocky Hill girls soccer coach under misconduct investigation after current player's family files complaint.

Misconduct not revealed but "DCF and police notified as required by law" has to mean something.

Not involved with school until alleged misconduct is investigated.

Heh, I'm from Rocky Hill, played on the boy's team, graduated in '04. Pacelia did kinda seem like a creep. Lives right around the corner from me.
