Well, in public I don’t think coaches should engage in friendly trash talk and especially not on any online platform. This is all my personal opinion btw. Since they are friends as you pointed out it would better and smarter to keep that conversation private and not allow a “Politically Correct Karen” to invade their privacy and become offended. You see, I, as a fan and sometime freelance journalist, feel that I am safe to not care if someone is offended if I say, for example, “The Warhill Lions might not be more of a threat to the Phoebus Phantoms than the Heritage Hurricanes were to the Hampton Crabbers due to the numbers 29 snd 30.” That‘s simple, friendly trash talk that also serves to confuse the reader. 😃
