How wrong is that? His wife dies suddenly and he's coaching? Bad taste
As a coach's wife, I would expect my husband to be on the field with his team!
Have they investigated the coach? From all articles, it does not seem like I have heard her family traveling with him nor supporting him. I smell a rat.
anyhow, god bless her family
she is a coach's wife...she would want him to be at that game. Anyone who is not a football wife would not understand the commitment by not only the coach, but the family. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Zimmer family.
