Such exaggeration is meant to show how extremely foolish and inappropriately Phil is behaving, but could be misinterpreted by small children who hear him getting laughs.

The only ones who remember you when you come in second are your wife and your dog.

The win-at-all-costs owner of a thriving sporting goods chain, Buck may be the most competitive man on the planet.

So you can imagine his disappointment when his only son, Phil, failed to demonstrate any athletic ability.

Hes no jock. Neither is his 11-year-old son, Sam, who warms the bench for the Gladiators, Bucks powerhouse youth soccer team.

That is until Grandpa Buck trades him to the last-place Tigers, a hapless bunch of kids in search of a coach because their last one suffered a nervous breakdown.

Realizing hes in over his head, Phil recruits Bucks hot-tempered neighbor (former Chicago Bears coach Mike Ditka playing himself) to help him whip the players into shape.

Ditka and Buck dont get along, so Ditka relishes the chance to frustrate his next-door nemesis on the playing field even if it means partnering with a softie like Phil.

He also creates a monster when he introduces Phil to the joys of coffee.

Flush with the taste of victory and highly caffeinated beverages, this mild-mannered dadonce brimming with encouragement and a healthy view of youth sportsbecomes a championship-hungry menace.

The moral of the story is, as Phil attests at the beginning and rediscovers by the end, that youth sports should exist as a fun means of recreation, not cutthroat competition.

The father-son relationship is valued more highly than victories or trophies.

Spoiler Warning When Phil comes to his senses midway through the big game he tells Sam hes starting the second half.

Phil also makes peace with his own father, using Bucks prized possession to make his point (The ball is just a metaphor for the distance between us).

He even shouts expressions of love from one sideline to the other.

Meanwhile Phils wife, Barbara, supports him, encourages him, defends him when hes right and holds him accountable when hes wrong.

There are consequences to Phils inappropriate, antisocial antics.

He humbly apologizes to his son and his team for going a little nuts.

Elsewhere, boys teach each other ball-handling skills and work together as a selfless unit.

Making the best of a disappointing situation pays dividends for Sam.

After mugging like a gangsta and using the expressions pimpin and cracker, a naive boy admits that hes imitating stuff he saw in a rap video, even though he has no idea what it means (reminding parents of childrens propensity to copy what they see and hear in entertainment).

Rather than see the Italian boys miss a game because of work, the team pitches in to help them cut meat.

After taunting an opposing player, Phil is attacked by the boy and wrestled to the ground.
