"This [thread] reads like the acceptance of unprofessional conduct. its one thing to talk **** about people you know, mother in laws or that kind of stuff(which ends up biting people most of the time but on their own free accord) . To do it professionally is the realm of idiots who will be consequenced and that cause HARM to organizations that pay them.
The word professional applies. There's expectations with that high pay.
Also being more aware not to get caught isn't the issue. Lack of respect for a coaching staff and indirectly blasting them is the issue.
We've gone in strange directions as a society if we accept this.
Finally, triangulation always hurts someone, and we've all done it, being human imperfect beasts and all, but to say it doesn't hurt anybody is either a product of being young and lacking understanding, or being old and lacking understanding..."
