My husband cheated on me with two women. He wants to stay together because he has cancer. Should I stay? Okay, Sam, that has to be the craziest story in OK Storytime podcast history. Well, John, that's because it's dumpin' week, and this user writes, last week we had an attempted break-in.

I asked my husband, who was supposed to be at his mom's, to come over and change the locks, but his mom told me he wasn't with her. And it took me less than an hour to find the first two women he was cheating on me with.

Goes to a former high school girls basketball coach named Jim Zulo. I say former so happily and proudly because this man was so deserving of a firing. This is one of those mornings where I'm encouraging you to go watch Breakfast Club on Tubi or YouTube. Yes, you can watch Breakfast Club on Tubi, but Jim Zulo was the coach

of the Northville Central School District girls basketball team. And there was an incident that occurred following Northville's loss in the Class D State Championship game. See, on an online stream of Northville's game, Zulo was seen pulling the hair of a senior named Hailey Monroe.

Drop on the clues bombs for Hailey Monroe. As the team was waiting for their medal presentation, the coach yanked her ponytail. Let's go to ABC News 10 for the report, please. Northville girls basketball head coach Jim Zulo, a New York State basketball hall of famer, was fired late last night following a postgame incident with one of his own players. After Northville's loss in the Class D championship game, Zulo was seen

on the NFHS network broadcast pulling the hair of senior Hailey Monroe as the team waited for the medal presentation. The video has garnered a lot of social media outrage. Zulo told News 10 ABC that Monroe directed an expletive toward him after he instructed her to shake hands with the opposing team, which is what he says led to the incident. In a statement, the school district said in part quote, the Northville Central School District is aware of and deeply disturbed by the conduct of the conduct of the coach of the girls varsity basketball team adding that the district will be

following up with the affected players and their families to provide support and outline the actions we are taking in response to this incident. I see stories like this and I believe in the stork because there is no way that somebody carried this young woman for nine months pushed her out went through this excruating pain called labor, and this guy Jim Zulo isn't walking around with his jaw wired shut today. Okay, it's just impossible for me to believe that this dude would have the audacity, the unmitigated gall to do something like this to someone else's child. Okay, now I'm all for the village. It takes a village to raise a child, but everybody in the village shouldn't have the same authority. Okay, now I grew up in an era where anyone in the circle could put hands on you, all right?

From parents to grandparents, aunts, uncles, principals, if you was in the care of an adult, that adult had permission to put hands on you. I don't agree with that philosophy, and I damn sure wouldn't agree with that philosophy in 2025. Because adults got all types of trauma they haven't worked through and they'd be projecting it on to kids, okay?

Won't do that to mine. So I don't care, you know, what this guy Jim Zulo was going through, whatever frustration he was feeling, you don't take it out on my child. But yanking her head the way that you did, grabbing her by the ponytail and giving it that tug the way you did, you damn near gave this girl whiplash because you mad about something. And once again, where was this young girl's parents a brother uncle somebody that smacked fire out of Jim Zulo okay at least put the fear of God in him something I also don't understand how you can be an adult and you're supposed to teach kids that have better conflict resolution skills when you don't have better conflict resolution skills I get it you just lost the championship game emotions are high you told her to do something she didn't do it it. That's your story. But you're the adult. You're the leader. You're

supposed to teach these young ladies discipline, teamwork, how to handle adversity, and how to live with loss. Okay. You know how many quotes about losing? You can Google. Okay. Lionel Messi said there are more important things in life than winning or losing a game. Morgan Wooten said you learn more from losing than winning. You learn how to keep going. Alex Morgan said winning and losing isn't everything. Sometimes the journey is just as important as the outcome. Now other than Lionel Messi, I don't know any of those people. Okay, but I googled and all I got to do is say those quotes came from Serena Williams, LeBron James, and Glorilla and damn it these kids will be motivated and they

will live to play another day. Okay, I could actually quote Glorilla and dammit these kids will be motivated and they will live to play another day. I could actually quote Glorilla after a loss for real. All I gotta do is say listen kids, every day the sun won't shine but that's why I love tomorrow. You Jim let your emotions fumble your professionalism and Donald Trump needs to sign an executive order that says if an adult assaults your kids in any way you can assault them back. You can't go further than assault. Can't kill them.

But you can administer a retaliatory ass whipping of some kind. F all that. When they go low, we go high. Nonsense. It's a silly philosophy. A silly philosophy. But don't listen to me. Listen to the author of the 48 Laws of Power, Robert Greene.

It was the old thing of when they go low, we go high. Throw that in the toilet, please, and flush that down. That is a stupid philosophy. When they go low, maybe go high. Throw that in the toilet, please, and flush that down. That is a stupid philosophy. When they go low, maybe we go a little bit lower than we normally have, but we're gonna fight. You have to show them that you're gonna fight and do something equal to what they're doing so they back off.

You don't necessarily have to do it, but you have to show, give a demonstration that you're gonna be tough. There's a line in the sand that they cannot cross, or you're gonna make them pay for it. If they never have a sense that they have to pay consequences for what they're doing they'll go further and further and further and further it's a deterrent strategy the other side the enemy the

rival has to feel that they're gonna pay a price for doing something unethical or against the rules please let Remy Ma give Jim Zulo the biggest hee haw hee haw hee haw you stupid mother-fucker, you dumb. Certain lines you can't cross. That's right. And tugging my child's ponytail after a loss is one of them. I agree. Simple as that.

But I'm sure they probably gonna sue that man. They gonna sue the school, they gonna get all that. They should. Shout out to her teammate. I don't know her teammate's name, but shout out to Helly Monroe's teammate for standing up for her. I still want to know where the men was at though.

Yeah, that's crazy. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. Yes, indeed. Donkey of the Day is sponsored by renowned personal injury attorney Michael the Bull Lamonsoff.
