MONUMENT, Colo. -- A former high school basketball coach faces 39 charges for allegedly hitting male students in the groin, showing them pornography and pouring water on his players then driving them to games in the winter with the windows rolled down.

Gregory Lynn Burr, 28, face charges ranging from sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust to child abuse resulting in serious bodily injury, according to court documents reviewed by The Gazette of Colorado Springs. One of the students claims to have had scrotal surgery because of Burr's alleged assault.

A student in documents said Burr would ask them, "What is the capital of Thailand?" When they would answer "Bangkok," he would hit them in the groin. <---- :rofl:

The incidents allegedly took place from September 2005 to March 2006 at The Monument Academy.

Burr's phone number in Colorado Springs was not listed. Burr attorney Phil Dubois told The Gazette Monday that the charges are unwarranted, adding, "Mr. Burr is not a sex offender or anything close to it."

It's not assault, it's foreplay at that point. Although his team is pretty stupid if it happened 39 times the same way and they couldn't see it coming a mile a way.

1. Wait... there's actually a crime called

"groin assault"? The law actually seperates that from... "normal assault"? :spray: :crazy:

2. Does this involve a football to the groin?

Cause. You know. That would be comedy gold.
