A St. Louis youth football team had the rest of its season canceled after a player’s parent allegedly shot the coach multiple times for not putting his son as a starter for the team, according to city and police statements.

Yeah this makes sense. What are the college/pro teams going to think if this guy's kid can't start for *checks other sources* A TEAM OF 9 AND 10 YEAR OLDS!
There is a bit of levity at least for me. My favorite defense has made an appearance. The shooter's brother claims that the coach was the aggressor and pulled his gun first so the shooter is innocent because "he acted in self-defense because he feared for his life."
I guess that seals it then.
