Today, I was coaching a little league soccer game. I was telling one of my players to go cover another kid. I said "go cover the little yellow kid!" because he happened to be wearing a yellow shirt. He also happened to be Asian. I then got death stares from his family members. FML

If it's only coaching, I'm guessing it wouldn't've been like, a proper game? So the kids would just be wearing whatever clothes they want. It's stupid, can't even say colours these days without people playing the racism card. If I was playing soccer (I wouldn't...I'm a girl who hates sports!) and I was wearing a white shirt, and someone was told to cover the "white" girl...(I'm white/british)...I wouldn't think anything of it. But when it's another race, they play the racism card. It was a yellow t-shirt, and if the kid didn't know the other kids name, how else were they to know who to cover?! It was just a description of their clothes, maybe worded a little weird. FYL

Get over it. It's not that serious

I wonder what those parents would think if the referee gave him a yellow card.

If you're the kids coach you should probably learn their names. YDI.

If he was telling one of his kids to cover him, he was probably on the opposing team

It's not your fault the other kid's team picked a crappy color. They should know better. /sarcasm That being said, who really cares? You'll probably never see that family again, or if you do, you probably won't speak to them.

Well, you didn't mean it right? And you didn't know? So it's okay

I agree with Purple5. People are waaaay too over reactive to that kind of thing. If he just so happened to be wearing a yellow shirt, that's just coincidence. They took it way too seriously. xD Kinda sucks though. Hopefully someone had a sense of humor there!

HAHA THATS FUNNY BUT HEY ITS NOT YOUR FAULT I MAEN WHO CARES BOUT HIS FAMILY HAHA U KNOW WAT U MENT THAT COUNTS....HAHA BUT IF I WAS U I'D BE LMFAO THE WHOLE TIME AFTER I SAID THAT..LOL

# 13, go to hell. Not every other race is quick to play the racism card. I'd tell you that was a racist statement (which it was) but I don't want you thinking I'm pulling the card (which I'm not). So I'll just say that was an IGNORANT statement, and that I thought Britons knew better... smh. MOVING ON.... Hilarity. Pure hilarity! Like everyone else is saying, just tell the parents what you meant, they'll get over it...

Oh yeah they do! Every ******* "minority" out there pulls the racist card out of their ass at their earliest convenience!!! By the way, while in this country - I'm a minority as well, but who gives a **** - I'm white, means i'm the devil.. Right?

I don't get how people can get pissed over adjectives. If your skin's white, it's white. If it's black, it's black. If it's yellow, it's yellow. It's just skin, nothing more. Why do people have to make such a big deal?

obviously people on here aren't reading the whole fml. he said that he was telling one of his players to cover another player on the other team. therefore, he wouldnt know any of the other team players' names. read the dang fml..he knows his kids' names, just not names from the other teams you tards.
