[quote name="im on fire" post="775330" timestamp="1268333046"] the yates team is ranked #1 in the nation....MAYBE JUST MAYBE they are that good....just because the other teams cant hang with them then maybe they need to STEP UP the playing.  if the team is pressing and they up by 70, let em keep pressing until they break it.  just because a more talented team beats another not as talented dont take it out on the better team.....[b]these kids are trying to earn a shot at playing college ball[/b]....but lets tell them to slow down cause other kids cant keep up...try getting into college like that...it wont happen.  i hope they score 100+ in the final 2 games of the season and blow out the other team in the finals...keep on pushing these kids coach...i would rather see these kids kill people on the court then kill people on the street.  if you wanna play yates....YOU BETTER BRING IT.  [/quote] only learning to play one type of basketball, and beating up on weak teams isn't going to prepare them for college basketball.  when they do get to their college teams, they're going to have to completely re-tool their game to learn how to play in half-court offenses and defenses.  they'll be going against equal and superior athletes, and the only thing that they've been taught to do while playing high school ball isn't going to be enough for them to succeed.  in the end it will be up to their natural abilities and the abilities of their college coaches to make them successful. 

i have no respect for what coach wise is doing at yates.  i don't care what color he is.  i don't care what color the players on his team are.  it's about class, dignity, and respect for your opponent.  he doesn't show any of it.  he shouldn't be judged simply because he's black.  in the same token, he shouldn't be defended simply because he's black.  there are people on both sides that make this a racial issue.  it shouldn't be.  either you agree with what he's doing, or you don't.  if the reason you disagree with him is because of his race, you're an idiot, and the same goes for those who agree with him or protect him simply because of his race.  if you can look within yourself and say that you would have no problem with your child playing for him, or BETTER YET, can say that you'd have no problem with your child taking one of his 100-point beatdowns, then support him.  If you're like me, and can't stomache the idea of pressing an opponent when you're up 100, or fouling to stop the clock so that you can score some more, than feel free to criticize what he's doing.  but if you're basing even part of your opinion on his race, no matter which side you choose, your opinion isn't worth the toilet paper you wiped it on.  

[quote name="PoppaBearstarr" post="775230" timestamp="1268327854"] I dont have a dog in this fight but it appears to me that there is bias on both sides, one that doesnt agree with whats happening and another thinking it's ignorance becuase they haven't spent time there. It just looks to be biassed on both parts. I dont think it has a thing to do with trailor parks, wards, woods, or cities, goodole boy's, or home boy's. Its just preception and opinions. I personally hate it when the steriotypes start flying. [/quote] yup.  well said.
