He could have worn one in the ear and I wouldn't have minded.  Punting the catchers mask was a little much.  He gets it honestly I guess 

I'm a Texas fan, but that little stunt pissed me off. I wasn't happy with his little dance on second base either. I hope Pierce puts a stop to these shenanigans.

The little dance on second base was because the previous half inning the A&M player did the little dance to the Texas dugout. So, whats good for the goose is good for the gander ! As far as kicking the helmet..... maybe a little too far, but the catcher doesn't have to put it right in the middle of home plate when he takes it off either. Toss it out of the field of play, then you won't have to worry about it happening.

I'm not a proponent of responding to poor sportsmanship with poor sportsmanship.

    • are you suggesting that if the football coach runs spring drills then the kids won't play fall ball without supervision?  Because if not, this argument has no relevance.  One doesn't take the place of the other.  one the AD has control of, the other he just tries to.  
    • I don't think it is overly hyped.. I am seeing less and less multi-sport kids when it can all be prevented.. A coach teaches l loyalty, work ethic, comradery, integrity, perseverance, etc.. to get kids to buy into their program. They talk about brotherhood and doing what is best for their community.... But some mean all of this  just for football... Kids see into this double standard and will quit.. either while on the field or off...  drives me crazy!!  and again... I work with these kids.. they tell me what they think.. so you can agree or disagree.. its their point of view!!
    • Hmm..... I tend to disagree. I was a multi sport athlete in High School and am now a coach. Kid is not going to be a very good hitter if he only hits in the spring and summer, I took BP and threw (to keep my arm in shape) during football and basketball season. Kid is not going to be a very good QB, WR or DB if he only throws passes, runs routes or covers receivers in the fall or during a few 7 on 7 games after baseball is over. And a kid is never going to be good shooter of the basketball if he only shoots during the basketball season. Skills are honed, not mastered, they need to be developed and practiced repeatedly.
    • and I'll concede that this is more realistic.  but a good AD can make football the primary focus without messing with the success of other sports.
    • but they're 10-3 this year.  playoffs in basically everything except boys and girls basketball, which i mean, that's understandable.  and from what I'm hearing, the different programs feel supported over there.  which is kind of the point of the athletic director.  It's not the football director.
