    Box1 got a reaction from 5GallonBucket in TABC All Region Teams   
    Foster should've gotten all-region considering what he did with the group he had 😆
    In all seriousness though he does seem to make average players so much better than they oughta be

    It's comical reading responses to this from people who have no idea or understanding on how anything works.
    As with anything else that you want to give your opinion on, do your homework (couldn't help myself) and come in with some legs to stand on. 
    The rebuttal of "working parents", how do you handle Christmas break/Spring Break/Thanksgiving Break/SUMMER?
    The removal of Friday doesn't mean the kids are losing time in the classroom, that time is made up by starting earlier and finishing later M-Th. 
    People throwing the wages argument of "part time work deserves part time pay" are ignorant if you think teachers are swimming in it.
    I can keep going but unless you're involved, you can't possibly understand. My wife is in year 12 at a lower socioeconomic school and to help with getting by with 3 kids I continue to work my 6-day a week job. Thanks for taking up my lunch break with your ignorance.

    You apparently don’t understand how it works, on more than one front.  We receive 187 days pay, prorated through the course of the year to ensure we receive a paycheck in the summer.  And districts are required to work a certain amount of minutes a year, with 4-day districts adding minutes to each day, working certain Fridays, and an extra week or two or three a year to make up the difference.  And you clearly underestimate the difficulty of the job, and the value a good teacher has in society.  Like a profession there are good ones and bad ones, but I don’t understand your attitude towards teachers at all.

    Throw book smarts out the window, son. You brought up and compared an 18/3 high school kid to arguably a top 5 player of all time. Your common sense, or lack thereof, should've told you that one probably should've been kept in your almighty think tank.

    That's an understatement.
    Knowing what that team has gone through and what talent he has (or lack thereof), this could be one of his best coaching seasons of his career. 
    I certainly didn't have them to be 4 points from a regional tourney appearance.

    I mean shooting 60 percent he probably should shoot it that much.

    There isn't a person here that doesn't feel bad for the kids or the situation.  It's definitely a very uncommon thing that their school enrollment has gone the opposite direction of the norm.. especially at such a quick rate.  I'm really wondering what's going on over there to cause it...
    Anyway.  Unfortunately.. I don't think it's something that they'll ever live down.  The poster that you're referring to, (the one that only shows up when they beat literally anybody).. has ruined it for the school.  The four horsemen thing will never die.

    Natural hire to me is Bethea? He’s been at 5 schools the last 5 years. Brings a lot of experience to the table

    Best believe I would send out a notice at the start of the year, part of which would include a letter signed by parent(s) reiterating their job as parents and mine as a coach.
    You cheer, I coach.

    Mckinney was his name, special player as well. Most think they would've beat Thorndale that year if he was at 100%, hurt his knee earlier in the playoffs and wasn't close to the same.
