Speaker 1 (00:00):
Warner up a fresh show. It's Kiki's court, all right,
the Honorable Kikileik is in attendance.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Take it away, please, all right, let's step in the courtroom.
The gavel has been hit. It says, hey, Kiki, please
help me with this. My daughter is a future w
NBA superstar and she currently leads her basketball team. She's
been playing since she was five years old and now
she's ten. She plays for our Park District team. In
every season, she leads her team to victory. However, there's
(00:32):
a new girl that joined our team this season, and
to be completely.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Honest, she sucks.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
She literally can't dribble a ball to save her life.
She's slightly overweight, and she has two left feet. I
have no clue why her mother would torture all of
us by putting her on our team. I've complained to
the coach about giving her playing time, but he always
says he has to because her parents pay the fees
for her to play. I feel like every time this
(00:59):
girl plays, she makes it harder for my daughter to win.
I finally reached my breaking point when she cost us
the last game and I lost my cool and yelled out,
get her out.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Of here from the stands.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I apologize after, but now they're threatening to ban me
from attending games. I'm truly considering, though, moving my kid
to another team, but she's begging to stay and play
with her friends.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
What should I do? I hate that my.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Kid has to suffer because her teammate is trash.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
I mean, Rufio, you could just do the topic on
the area kid on the card.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
I thought of you.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
I thought of you immediately when I read this, because
I know you are that parent I am. But Rufio,
you cannot go around doing.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
This like what.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
Honestly, honestly, I feel like the girl should stay on
the team. It'll make her a better player playing with
people that are at the same skill level as her.
And if she was that good as a player, she
should be helping her team may be better. She should
be helping her, assist her to make a part of
the team.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
That this guy, Look at this guy.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
I know, I know. It's like, let me say what,
I would never do.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
That that doesn't happen, then I'm taking my kid to
another team.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Oh wow, that's real though that that's a very mature
way to look at it. I you know, me, I
was this kid slightly overweight, too left. He came terrible ball.
My parents put me in every sport. I did ballet,
I did tap dance, I did of course, I couldn't
do any of it.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
So I understand.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
You know, there are going to be children on the
team that are not as good as your kid. You
cannot scream and yell and act out. And this is
not the w NBA. This is the partnership, right, you
know what, This is a hot seventy dollars for the
season and you out here acting like your kid is
Lebron Like, please, lady, it's not that deep. And you
are being a horrible example for your child yelling at
(02:56):
kids that are not like from the stand like, what
is wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (02:59):
You actually on hand right.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
And the funny thing is is like if she were
to take her kid to a more competitive league.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah, her kid might not be the best player on
that team anymore.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
And then what and then what how are you gonna
act this?
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
What are you gonna do when some fuddy screams that
your kids sucks.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Exactly like this is this is this is crazy And
I don't think you need to remove your kid from
the team. I think you as the adult, need to mature,
like get your life together.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
True, well, now here's okay eight five, five, five, nine,
one one oh three five call now please if you
have somebody to say, you guys are the jury in
Kiki Squort I would say this, If it's just one
kid that's not good, and you know, again you mentioned
it's for a park league or whatever, anybody can sign up,
then you have to take get in consideration. But if
your kids just that much better than everybody else, then
(03:45):
maybe you should consider finding a more challenging environment for
your own kid as opposed to complaining about the other
kids that aren't as good. You know, like, okay, so
your kid's gifted. Maybe, but then again you also going
to take into consideration. This is how parents talk about
the their own kids.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
True.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
I mean, if you if you line up all the
parents that we know and ask them about, you know,
if their kids good at something, they're the best at it.
I mean, but that's not possible. How can every.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Kid be in anything? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Because again, like parents tend to uh, you know, sort
of over indulge when it comes to their their their
their children's own prowess. Because I think they think it's
a reflection on them. But so if your kid's that
much better than everybody else, and put them on a
different team, right.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
I mean that's what I would suggested.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
But she's probably scared because, like Rufi I mentioned, you
take your kid, put her on a better team, and
now your kid is not the star.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Your kid is not the MVP anymore.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
You know that that is a hard thing to accept sometimes.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Yeah, my parents never had this problem, so I don't
really know. This is, in fact, not a story about me.
I think I was the one the people were screaming,
this kid sucks them off the team, and.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
They were like, Hi, you're so tall. No, that's exactly
what it was.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
They're like, we're gonna put this kid on varsity all
four years because eventually maybe he can use his hype
for something. And the joke was on them because I
never to this day, I've never really managed to use
the hype for well much. But let me see here,
(05:24):
preached Key Key, one of the techs seven seven three.
Her child clearly isn't suffering if she's asking her to
stay on the team. The mom needs to stop worrying
about her ego and let her kid be a kid.
If she's that good, she should be playing on a
competitive team like the travel districts. This isn't even travel basketball.
(05:45):
Somebody said, not that it would matter. Refs and coaches
will kick parents out all the time in travel hockey
games their kids. All the games lead to beer game?
Or was it all roads lead to beer leagues?
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (05:59):
No, like a right, like a like a fun league.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Oh okay, I don't know. I'm not including in those either. Yes,
how you doing Jackie?
Speaker 6 (06:12):
Hey, Hey guys, how are you hey?
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Good morning's court? What say you?
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Okay? So I had called a while ago in reference
to you guys were having a segment about bad parents, uh,
bad sports parents, and I was one of them talking
about my daughter being in volleyball, and you guys grilled
me to hell because.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Never happened. No, not at.
Speaker 6 (06:41):
All, not at all.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
You're obviously confused. So this this terrible, these terrible people
that did that to you.
Speaker 7 (06:49):
Anyway, No, okay, you talk from.
Speaker 8 (07:07):
I love you, guys. Okay, We'll you give me a chance. Okay,
So like, look okay.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
So okay. So basically what I'm saying is that I
feel like if if my when my daughter and you
guys drilled me for talking crap to the other kids
in the stand right, I mean in the in the
in the on the court right.
Speaker 8 (07:31):
So but now my daughter and you said.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
Well, and Rufio said that, Oh well, what if your
daughter now that you said that, what if she turns
out like crap as a player when she gets older?
How are you going to feel about that? Guess what?
Speaker 8 (07:48):
My daughter is a team volleyball at.
Speaker 6 (07:52):
High school now and she's rocking it out and they
got rid of the crabby players, probably because I was.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Who I was.
Speaker 5 (08:01):
Yeah the time, are you even allowed to watch your
kids play volleyball?
Speaker 1 (08:08):
I'm getting watched from the Jackie Jackie's Believe Me Show
right now?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
All right, I do.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
I love you guys so much, but no, I appreciated
your feedback the first time because I did try to
domb it down after that because y'all made me feel
so bad. So then I'm like, okay, I'm gonna change,
so I did.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
It's gonna be very exciting, Jackie. Once your kid plays
on TV, you're able to watch again from Afar. That's
gonna be great.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
From very Afar.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
What's what's all those training orders? Don't apply anymore. You're
gonna love it.
Speaker 8 (08:51):
You got it, buddy A.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Jackie too writes this email.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
She served my ass up.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
You see how sometimes I got a guide the conversation
a little bit. You see how I got to kind
of poke people into getting to the point. See you
try kind of, it's kind of it's kind of my job.
And occasionally people are like stop talking. I'm like, no,
I just need you to say what you're called about.
But hey, am I Amber, good morning?
Speaker 4 (09:19):
How are you good?
Speaker 3 (09:21):
How are you very well?
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Kiki'score, what do you think?
Speaker 6 (09:25):
Well?
Speaker 9 (09:25):
I think my son, I have a I got a
big boy.
Speaker 10 (09:28):
He's did a sixth grade almost two hundred pounds, almost
six foot tall, and he wanted to play soccer, and
I was like, you sure you don't want to do
like like right right, I don't go soccer and like
tennis are probably not your future kid, But you know,
(09:51):
but I'm very well.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
No, No, hold on a second, I need I need
I need to clarify one thing. He's in sixth grade
and he's six foot, two hundred pounds. Yeah, so I
don't know if you're familiar with Fred's sports management agency.
I am currently building a roster of of young aspiring athletes,
and I think I'd like to sign your son to
(10:12):
an agreement right now on.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
This right yeah, okay, So then so.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Not soccer, not ballet, maybe not not tennis, and how's
that going?
Speaker 9 (10:23):
And so we find him up. He wanted to do
spring soccer, and I was super realistic with him. I'm like, listen, kid,
there's going to be like this is a lot of running,
you know. But I think it is more of the parents,
because like all of the kids on his team that
were like leagues above him, everyone was so kind and
(10:46):
like helpful, and there were times where I'm like, oh
my god, that's my kid out on the field. This
is this is not don't pass the ball.
Speaker 10 (10:55):
And all of all of the kids.
Speaker 9 (10:57):
So I think it add percent comes back to the parents.
They're going to learn one way or another, you know.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
So that isn't it funny how like you can sometimes
spot the kids like I may not I may go
to a game where my friend's kids or whatever, and
I don't know the kids, I don't know the parents,
but I can almost immediately match the two based on
how the parents are acting and how the kids are
acting and it's like I know, like like for example,
if I didn't know Rufio, I would know exactly which
(11:25):
kid was his.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
For sure.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
So yeah, thank you, thank you, Amber, have a great day.
Speaker 6 (11:33):
Thank you too.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
Glad you called.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
You'd be the one out there yelling whatever is not
the rules, it's not the rules.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
To go two gold, come on I one.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Yeah, I would have zero except for the fact that
they look identical. Except for that, I would definitely know
which kid was Andrea Hi Hi bred Hey, good morning,
so Keiki's court. Just to recap your kik Judge Kekey,
make sure I get this right. This woman's upset because
her kid is basically better, in her opinion, than every
(12:09):
other kid on this this park league basketball team, and
she wants the kids that suck off the team, yes, immediately,
and she's been very vocal about that.
Speaker 11 (12:19):
What do you think, Well, that's terrible that I couldn't
imagine that, honestly, But I wanted to say, I am
the mom with the new kid on the team this
year for basketball. This is his first year playing at
his school in his school team, and I just I
couldn't imagine that. But with my son being his first
(12:41):
year playing his teammates. The moment he gets like a
rebound or an assist or something, his teammates go crazy
and it's just like it's so nice to see. And
not only that, but the parents. So many parents have
already said, we're so happy to have Aaron on the team. Oh,
like you know, it's a team effort, and you know,
(13:03):
I just couldn't imagine being the parent of the of
the girl that you know isn't as good as as
the other girl. It's just you know, no, that's that's
not acceptable.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
I mean I remember growing up, my parents used to
say to me, like, there's always going to be somebody
who's better at things than you are, Like, no matter
how good you think you are. And I think that's
a that's a good thing. And I guess in this case,
if that, if that's her, then still be it. But
maybe she needs to be on a team where there's
somebody better than her and maybe this mom needs to
be humbled a little bit.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
I don't know. So it's just somebody to work towards.
Speaker 11 (13:37):
Yeah, definitely, no, that's no.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, Andrea, thank you for calling. Have a great day.
Thanks you too, Glad you called. Let me see here Ottaselli.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Good morning, Go morning Fred.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
Hi, don't yell at me please, Keys.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
I just wanted to.
Speaker 12 (13:57):
Say thank you guys for the story was so great,
the perfect thing for a Monday morning. I am all.
Speaker 6 (14:03):
On keys side.
Speaker 12 (14:04):
I cannot believe that the mom would just shout at
the poor little kids like that could be a highlight
for them just being on the basketball team, like playing
with their friends, and they're not that great, and it's
just like absolutely insane that the mom thought it was
okay just be like cream at these poor little kids.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
I kind of hope that at some point that mom
gets humbled by some other kids, parents who you know,
the kid's better or something. You know, it gets a
little taste of around medicine, see how it feels. Not
that I think that she'll care or that doesn't strike
me as a person who has the self awareness to realize,
you know, what's going on. But yeah, that would be
nice if at some point she gets to see what
(14:43):
that's like, right.
Speaker 12 (14:45):
Exactly, and if she really thinks her daughter is that great,
then yeah, take your kid off the team and go
to it and maybe a better team, and then maybe
he'll be humbled.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
They'll see like Oh, like I just want to play
with my friends. Yes, it is always the parents. Always
the kids are there to have a good time. You know,
they like winning, they like playing. It's always the crazy parents,
screaming from the stands, yelling at the coaches, the throwing
stuff like they mess it.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Up every time.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Yeah, otto selling, thank you, have a great day. Well,
thank you, thank you for listening. Somebody texted, the girl
who quote unquote sucks is gonna end up sixty three
and in the w NBA. See there you go. That
makes sense. These are kids, you know, you can't say anything.
By the way, Kiki, let me get this kid's number.
I much to see if she wants to be part
of the agency. I mean, if she's that good, you know,
(15:36):
she get her signed up along with the you know,
six year oldest two hundred pounds and six nine or whatever.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
The Entertainmber of Forts
