My thoughts on a fired Coach

Alright, folks, I wrote an article on one of the most memorable “Survivor” players awhile back- Johnny Fairplay. So, with new material I decided to write another one on the latest memorable player from the current season- Coach. Well, his name is Benjamin Wade, but we’ll go with Coach since that seems to have emerged as the nickname of choice for the reality show. Though, he has several other nicknames as well. Okay, to be honest, I have not decided whether I believe this man or not- not to mention all of the wild stories he tells. I have searched him out a bit on the net and it seems he has been through more than his fair share of excitement, but that’s not to say he didn’t bring it upon himself! Apparently, a shark attacked him once; he holds a solo kayak record; he rode out a major hurricane; and something happened to him in the Amazon, but I’m not sure whether it was the jaguar attack or the Indian tribe attack or both. He coached a women’s soccer team before he joined “Survivor” but now they have since fired him; yet, he seems undeterred. And, in my opinion a more fitting occupation, he directs a symphony orchestra while apparently being skilled in playing the trumpet himself. The firing of his coaching job doesn’t seem to bother him because he thinks he is going Hollywood in a big way, ready to host his own TV show and be the next big thing. Now, again this is all supposed. I can’t figure out what to think of this guy, to be honest, except that I failed to be able to like him from day one. And nothing he has done has helped me turn that dislike around. In fact, he’s made the dislike stronger every single time I see him, which is always an unfortunate scene. To me, he makes himself out to be a fool in every sense of the word. He is so filled with himself and thoughts that he is the best, the leader and the smartest. I think he’d make anyone- or at least try- feel belittled. And frankly, I hardly ever know what the heck he’s even talking about! His language consists of warrior speak and maybe something else I am unfamiliar with; oh what the heck, I don’t know! I think all I have left to say about Coach is that he is a sad strange little man. And you know what, he does have my pity. And so with this I join the rest of you on the net who I’ve already read comments from thinking this man is crazy! Or wait, I think the descriptive word of choice I ran across the most was delusional!
