    One of my favorite stories that has been told over and over again is the story of Bradley addressing his sons coach and pointing out that yelling might not be the best way to coach the kids, and the infamous retort from the coach.

    Does anyone have a link to the actual story (I believed written by Jeff Bradley?) or has saved it. I was hoping to save it myself for future tellings. :)

    It was in Time magazine on a story about parents going nuts at their kids' sporting events.

    Great soccer quotes

    "You're the parent and I'm the coach, and I'm the one who knows how to play this game." - Blissfully ignorant youth soccer coach. The parent? Bob Bradley, whose Chicago Fire had just won MLS Cup 98. Bradley just walked away.
