  1. I agree with an earlier post. If kids today were coached like we were 25 years ago, most would not play. However, as a coach, telling a player "that was the worst effort I have ever seen"  or "that was a piss poor shot" is a long way from telling them they suck. Raising cain and hollering is something most coaches do from time to time. Verbally attacking a kid is not acceptable. A good coach knows the difference.
  2. When a coach decides to shop around for jobs that he has no intention of taking, whether a school district approaches you or not, to get a raise from you current school, is no longer in it for the kids. IMO
  3. Its not your job to figure out why he is subbing. He is the coach and should do what is best for his team. He should not have to explain to a kid why he is subbing for him. If the coach is the determining factor as to whether you play or not, you do not want to play that bad and eventually it will show.
  4. By the way, what do the horns of a trophy deer taste like?
  5. What do you expect when the TRAINER is the A.D. Enough said.
  6. Winning breeds success. I hope P.N.G. has a great year. But when district starts the wheels will come off. Barbers Hill, Crosby and Texas city are not Nederland, Lumberton, Central or Vidor. Lets see how much everyone loves the coaching staff mid-way through district. Who will be the first one to complain then.
  7. In a nutshell, Vidor beat a predominantly J.V. team. Mostly sophomore players. And barely. District title. No chance. Defense is horrible.
  8. In most at-bats you will see at least 1 good pitch to hit. If you take until you get the first strike, that may have been your best pitch to hit. A batter should be looking for a specific pitch in a certain location and gear up for that until you get the first strike on you. If you are looking fastball kneehigh, that is the only things you swing at. You look for that pitch until you have a strike in the count. If you are looking fastball and you get a offspeed pitch, lay off. Kids should never be taught to take until you get a strike. Thats a LL thing. If they do that in high school, they will seldom be successful. My opinion.
  9. Vidor plays a soft schedule because it is all about the coach's ego. Kick tail in pre-district, learn nothing. Get your tail handed to you in district and go home. Same story different year.
  10. You need a Louisiana license to fish on that side whether you are on the channel side or gulf side of the jetties.
  11. Best coach in the area, Brian English. Takes a Vidor team who never wins and makes the playoffs. Leaves and goes to Nederland and takes them to the playoffs for the first time in how many years. That is a great coach. Sutherland wins at Kountze, they won before he got there and are still winning. Goes to HJ and wins. They were winning beofre he got there. I imagine they would still be winning if he left. Kountze won a title before and after he was there. HJ won a title before he got there.
  12. If he can not read on a high school level, how did he stay eligible to play at Kelly for 3 years.
  13. If the two games he got suspended for were must win games for ozen to make the playoffs, he would not have been suspended at all. The coach is looking for a permanent job.
  14. I am not judging, I am stating facts. 59-0 at half, 88-0 after 3. A good coach would have seen that after the first 10 points that you were a superior team and would have backed off then. And yes it can be done without embarrasing the other team. But then again, some coaches have to try to win as bad as they can to prove what a great coach they are. I wonder how many people would have heard about this if would have ended up, say 50-0. My guess would be none.
