Send us a text

In this heartfelt episode of Coach E: Game For All Seasons, the team explores the emotional layers of fatherhood, family, and legacy—starting with a powerful talk about coaching young boys through breakdowns and breakthroughs. Coach Rick shares a real-life moment where a young athlete shut down emotionally after a game—and the impact of how adults respond in those critical teaching moments.

From there, the crew tackles the career vs. family debate, sparked by Tom Brady’s recent comments and Scottie Scheffler’s decision to prioritize home life over golf greatness. Can you really have it all—or does one always suffer?

And then, things take a wild turn as the guys break down the viral WNBA dildo-throwing incidents, using it to discuss how women’s sports are disrespected, under-promoted, and misunderstood—despite growing talent and visibility.

Finally, the conversation gets deeply personal in Coach E's Post Game Word, "Not Again". Coach E opens up about the recent passing of his cousin, reflecting on their bond and how grief reshapes his perspective as a mentor, father figure, and man. His tribute anchors a raw, honest conversation on what it means to show up for family while still chasing purpose.
