Im sure that there was another reason. Ask your coach why he didnt put you on the team. If he cant give you a straight answer then something might be up.

Okay, I can understand that your upset, but maybe your overreacting a little bit. Ask the coach why you didn't make the team, and then follow his advice for what you need to work on. If the guy's a jerk, then who cares if you made the team or not? You want a coach that will make sure you do your best, and cares about what's best for you.

You may be just trying to cover up your feelings of personal failure by blaming the coach. That way it can never be "your" fault, hence you have no reason to face the fact that you could improve i.e more effort on your part. I am not saying their is no possibility it could be motivated by race, but think about it.

Maybe you didn't make the team because you weren't a team player.

it was Anger and Stress it happen to a lot of Human Beings, we don't mean what really are saying.
If he meant what he said I'll file a lawsuit, I want that coach to apologize for his comments or he will be called a Racist.

A. STOP SHOUTING!!!
B. Maybe you need good grades to make the team and by the looks of it, you're failing English.
