In this harshly hilarious tale, Black, a Glasglow transplant living in suburban California, coaches the Dragons, a peewee team that proves an embarrassment to his beloved sport. They're pampered.

"Speedy Gonzalez, you're our magic mouse, wee man. Keep eating the cheese. Here's what I want you to do with the ball." "Dad!" he yelled. "Speedy Gonzalez? Wha ..."

"Shalom Schwartz (1994) suggested modifications to Rokeach's schema. He argued that the two lists of terminal and instrumental values could not always be clearly distinguished.
