About this episode
In this episode of The SoapBox Lex, hosts Paul Ross and Eric Green are joined by special guest Tyler Mills for a candid conversation about a growing problem in youth sports: parents behaving badly. From shouting at referees to living vicariously through their kids, we break down the outrageous — and sometimes dangerous — behavior seen on the sidelines. Tyler brings firsthand stories and insight from his experience as a coach and sports dad, while Paul and Eric explore the social and emotional pressures that lead to these sideline meltdowns. It’s a thought-provoking (and sometimes hilarious) dive into what sportsmanship really means — for the kids and the adults.
Whether you're a parent, coach, or just a fan of youth sports, this one’s for you. Time to take a stand... or at least take a seat in the bleachers without causing a scene.
