For the love of the game

That is not your son or daughter
  Out there
    Playing hockey on the ice.

That is an athlete.

You are not a parent,
  You are a spectator.

You do not call the game,
  The referee does.
    An individual trained
     To make the calls
And
      Who has probably been to more games
  Than you.

A professional.

Even if you don't agree.

You don't lead the team,
  The coach does.

Another trained individual.

Enjoy the game as it is being played
  For you.
    Cheer for your team.

That is an athlete,
  Not your son or daughter.
