The Legal System Disgusts Me!!!


By me being a coach of a high school basketball team this particular story my hit me quite a bit harder than others...

But fact of the mater is the legal system is truly broke, I do not understand how in any shape or form of human logic that an injury to an athlete during field play is by any means the coaches fault. Yes there could be situations where the coach could have some fault, but come on folks a kid getting hit in the face with a baseball on a line drive that the kid decided to dive for. He said himself that he could not see the ball because the sun was in his eyes.

For one the coach can not control entirely where or how the ball is hit, and for two the coach definitely can not control where the sun lays or the direction the field faces. These factors are really the only things in this situation not including the kid himself; so how is this logical for a viable lawsuit?

I know America is the most litigious society in the world but come on AMERICA!! We have people suing companies for not moving their scheduled birthday parties from upstairs to downstairs.... This is flat out ridiculous.

AMERICA were and when does the tearing down of our own society STOP??
