Thank God it was baseball. Soccer is so... European.

A friend was the assistant athletic director for a upper middle class suburb. The director left for another job, and, instead of promoting her, they brought in another guy who knew nothing about the area. The first thing he did was dig up all the soccer fields and replace them with baseball diamonds. This is one of those suburbs that originated the term "soccer mom". The outrage was palpable.

tl;dr They fired the new guy and gave the job to the woman like they should have in the first place.
