#coach dad

happy father's day to all the dads of the neighborhood who had to spend the day doing chores 🧢

RIP to University Administration; try as they have, they could not prevent Thomas from Being a Dad

tws: cursing, mentions of underage drinking/drunk driving

Coach Thomas forced himself to learn how to change a tire his second year of coaching because three of his players had called asking for help with their own flat tires over that time period

at the beginning of each year, he also does a brief lesson on how to tie a tie in the team locker room; he only knows One Knot and sometimes, it takes him an attempt or two to get it right himself, but that’s neither here nor there

Jared: oh shit how do you fold a pocket square, Thomas, already pulling up a wiki-how article: okay, so first you --

whenever the boys have to dress up for media events, you can catch Coach Thomas absentmindedly straightening ties and smoothing down errant hairs without even paying attention to what he’s doing

Coach Thomas knows next to nothing about cooking or eating right or any of that sort of thing, but he has learned how to make three Basic Soups so that he can send them to players when they get sick 

Coach Thomas has literally called his own dad to get tips on how to help Be There for his players

That parenting moment none of the books mention, when your wizard son sets the Christmas tree on fire
