LITTLETON, COL. — A fired-up hockey coach got himself fired recently when his words of encouragement before a game were too hot to handle, according to the Huffington Post.

The unnamed assistant coach was filmed giving a pep talk to the youth, using phrases such as “I want to see you beat up Green Mountain. Fuck Green Mountain! Fuck their coaches! Fuck their wives!”

The coach’s speech was an unfortunate event and “not a representation of our association, and out of respect for the families and the sport, we are diligently working to correct the situation,” said George Stieduhar, president of the Littleton Hockey Association.

The coach later issued an apology to both teams.
