It takes alot more to be a coach then most people realize and your payed poorly to do it. Then u listen to people who have no clue about whats going on tell you what your doing wrong. If your kid cant handle someone getting after them when they mess up then they dont have to play and coaches dont want you around. Ive been at a successful, well run program and there are plenty of buttchewings to go around and parents opinions were not welcome. Parents dont watch film so they dont get to coach [/quote] [b]I WATCH ALL THE FILMS BECAUSE I FILM EVERY GAME.. AND I'M ON THE SIDELINE EVERY GAME AND AT PRATICE EVERY PRATICE!!!! SO I THINK I KNOW FIRST HAND THE DIFFERNT TYPES OF COACHES THERE ARE AND WHAT TYPES WORK WITH DIFFERENT KIDS. I HAVE SEEN WHAT WORKS AND WHAT DOES NOT WORK.[/b]. Some schools have some awesome players but refuse to play due to the coaches.. [/quote] Do you ignore the rules in football to? ;) ;) 6) NO SHOUTING!!- (Use of "Caps Lock") The standard practice on most message boards, forums, emails, web pages, etc. is that the use of all caps is regarded as SHOUTING!!

[quote name="beechnut" post="844768" timestamp="1284239425"] [size=12pt][b]Seriously do you really have to be that bright to a football coach?[/b][/size] If coaches dont like what they do get out and come into the real world. Try to raise your voice or threating adult like you do a kid. Just like many coaches here were defending the coaches that went astray last year from Morton Ranch and Cleveland. Really? [/quote] Did you really post that? Let's see.....John Madden, Don Shula, Tom Landry, Vince Lombardi, etc........ I sure would not mind being in that list of dummies ::)

here we go.............. :o

[quote name="raideroldtimer" post="843079" timestamp="1284140870"] [quote author=w link=topic=72692.msg843054#msg843054 date=1284138629] I think it's one thing for a kid to move because the coach has "recruited" him and another thing if he moves for more playing time at a different school.  If he can't cut it at one school and moves to another, more power to him.  A lot of coaches would use that as a good reason for the kids that stayed to "get after" the other school when they play each other.  That being said, why would a coach want to keep a kid that he knows doesn't want to play for him? [/quote]Being recruited or moving just to get more playing time are both terrible reasons for a kid to change schools. If the kid isn't getting enough playing time I see only 4 reasons for that. First of all, it could be (and this would be the most likely IMO) that the kid just isn't that good a player. Secondly, if he's not getting playing time and he's actually good, he probably has a major attitude problem that the coach feels warrants keeping his butt on the sidelines. Third, maybe the kid just can't cut it with the schools curriculum, which means he ought to ask the counselor for some help getting a tutor because moving to a school with easier curriculum is the lazy way out. Finally, and this would be the only reason I could see as justifiable to move, there could be an outside chance that he and the coach just can't figure a way to get along. Unfortunately in life there are rare instances when two personalities just can't resolve their differences but a move would only be justifiable AFTER an attempt to resolve the problem through the schools' administration. [/quote] What if he is good, a nice kid but is behind a real good group of players?  What if he can change schools and the talent pool at the new school puts him on top? Now he's first string and playing under the lights......  just a what if!

[quote name="NDNTime" post="842514" timestamp="1284061613"] A fight song cannot even be considered for being the best when a majority of the people have never heard it.  When you have to put a youtube link up so everyone can get to hear it for the first time cannot equate to being the best fight song.  With that being said, whether you love it or you hate, Cherokee is the most recognizable fight song and is known throughout this area.  And everyone's disdain for Cherokee is what makes it so great.  It creates a passion for those that love it and those that hate it. [/quote] I guess because I'm for TJ, I keep hearing this to the tune of Cherokee: Poor little Indian boys Jackets gonna sting them Indian boys ;D  ;D  ;D  :o

;D ;D

[quote name="PURPLE 4EVER" post="842293" timestamp="1284027037"] Nothing beats Cherokee. How many other school districts can you go into [b]first grade classrooms [/b] and the majority of kids know the high school fight song. I remember learning Cherokee before the National Anthem. [/quote] Well, it is pretty simple; Always be faithful...To purple and white...Cheer on with spirit...And our team will fight...

Lumberton PeeWee last year had a couple scrimages with Kountze and had no issues. The coaches last year were stand up guys.  Best of luck to both of you!

[quote name="Birddogtx" post="840619" timestamp="1283813990"] Dub, I appologize if calling off the dogs hurt your feelings. I am very aware of the rules as they pertain to substitutions. I guess you are the guru of special teams coaches.  [b]Why did LCM onside kick their only kickoff?[/b]  It might be because the kids are 7-8 and don't quite have the leg strength to kick it deep.  4 years of mediocrity must be a soul crushing endeavor.    Sorry, spelling isn’t our strong suit in Lumberton, winning football games is. Keep making fun of the LTrain as we will just keep on counting our W's.  Deal with it. [/quote] because it wins games ;D

Yes, positive reinforcement is a good thing, but so also, is learning to deal with criticism.  I don't think anyone here was too harsh on the boy.  I am sure he felt awful about it and beat himself up about it.  He wouldn't be a team player if he didn't.  But, there comes a time in a boy's life when it's time to put on his big boy drawers and stick his chin out and be a man.  This, in my opinion, is one of those times.  Yeah, he probably did get picked on about it, and would have whether this forum existed or not.  Believe me, kids got picked on for stuff like that back in the old days before the internet and cell phones and in the small town that Lumberton was then, EVERYONE KNEW EVERYTHING.  The kid learned a couple of tough lessons ... not to do what he did, and to live with the consequences of his mistake, which includes people talking about it and teasing him a bit about it.  He also learned that he will be forgiven and that life goes on.  That's life and now is the time in his to learn to deal with stuff like this.  Playing high school football is about far more than the game.  Every experience these kids have is helping to shape who they are and who they will become.  So tough lesson it was, but he needed it to help him grow.  He'll be a better person and a better man for it.   [/quote] [size=14pt][b]GREAT POST!![/b][/size] The kid made a mistake and paid the price.
