you all suck
I spent all day at a taekwondo tournament 10 hrs. And still have my four place packed to the gill with gear. Gotta drop it all off this afternoon.
And to top it all off the tournament was hours behind schedule. When it came time for Maddigans board breaking competition, they did not have board holders. They ended up pulling people from the crowd literally at the last second.
One of her three breaks is a running jumping flying front kick. She runs then jumps off a crouching persons back, flys thru the air and does a front snap kick breaking the board. She had two of the people tell her they thought she shouldn't do it. WTF kinda of confidence boost is that, and WTF do they know what she can or cannot do? She has been training for this kick for the last three weeks, and when the ring manager realized he would need a fourth person she sstraight up told Maddigan no you can't do it. I I charged into the middle of the ring during the thing and gave them a peice of my mind. As I assumed the crouching position so she could do her kick she had worked so hard on.
She made her first two breaks Knife attack, and jumping side kick with ease. Set up for her run and and nailed the kick...but the f uktard holding the board got all scared and stepped back.
The reason this bugs me soo much is they would never let this happen during the older/adult portions. The have holders lined up to hold the boards properly for them...but as soon as its time for the youngsters they are all too busy stroking their egos in the corner. Hey guess what...my kid cost the same 6 grand to join this program so she should get the same treatment.
Those who know me well know I really don't get mad about too much...but I was FN seething yesterday. And then to top it all off I get to hang out and load all the crap into my trailer and take it back to the Dojang today. If all those fawkers weren't blackbelts I seriously might have strangled somebody.
I pulled the owner aside and gave him a peice of my mind during the middle of everything. He was very apologetic and started offering me free tshirts. LOL Just get your act together and then I'll be happy....fawkkers!!!!!
phew....did I mention I was seeeeething yesterday!!!!!
