Joey Pigza is the kind of boy who is cery sensitive, and calm who doesn't get overwhelmed by something. Although the only thing he can really think about is his six-week visit with his dad, Carter Pigza. But Joey's dad is the complete opposite of Joey, he's the kind of guy who likes real to do real boyish things like playing baseball or American Football. But one of the issues that Joey has with his dad is that his dad has showed him all the bad things to do like how to win in a bad way, and how it's more important to win than to have fun. Obviously it's more fun to win, but the most importing thing is to have fun!!! My soccer team has lost like every game, but we still have an awesome time, because each and every one of us loves the feeling of playing soccer… And we ALWAYS, ALWAYS high five each other, and we all say good game, and smile even though we've probably lost badly, but it doesn't matter!!!
But Carter has taught the exact opposite to his son, and now he wants to make it up for Joey by coaching him in a GOOD way, and not being so obsessed with winning. Trust me I've had the kind of coaches who just are so obsessed with winning… But one of the cons about Carter coaching Joey is that he thinks that he's taking control of Joey's life…

Nora, you mention Joey having to compromise his rules to please his father. I'll bet this is true often, and it is too bad. :-(
