to be fair the pe teachers where I grew up kind of earned that reputation. they never taught us how to do much of anything they were just like “go play baseball” and then they’d yell at you for doing it wrong because no one taught you
My one high school PE teacher was such a slacker that I actually admired him for it. He also played favorites in a hilarious way, like me and my friend would be talking loudly in class and he’d ignore us. But as soon as someone else spoke up he’d tell them be quiet. Then would bs with us about sports and what not. It was so obvious he was just checking the box every day.
Not a good teacher but kind of hilarious to see that level of professional apathy. Probably didn’t help that he was only about 4 years older than us. I think people forget a lot of teachers aren’t much older than teenagers

For real, most pe teacher positions are just busywork for the washed up jock.
Shame for the ones that actually studied physical education and pedagogy…
Fair enough.
