I feel your pain..that's why I'm an umpire, I work with the linebackers and linemen, none of us like to run too far..It's those 2 guys on the sidelines that have to run, but they don't mind, it gets them away from screaming coaches!..lol...

Everyone who referees, imo is doing so for the same reason...they have a love for the game. They don’t choose to put themselves in a position to be criticized because of the pay..:D....They just want to give back to the sport that they have spent their life around. No one is perfect and bad calls are inevitable. They are the last thing that the people who bear the responsibility of making these calls want to happen. So don’t chastise a ref the next time a call doesn't go the way you wanted. Instead, shake his hand after the game and tell him he called a good game. At the end of the day, he shares the same passion for the sport and loves the game just as much as you........ 8)

Thanks and amen brother! Peolpe always ask how we could put up with the abuse. I love the game so much it's just Texas High School football and then waiting for Texas High School football. I get goose bumps every Friday night that I'm standing out there on the 50 and the  flag's flying and the anthem's playing...CANT WAIT..

      Bridge City is open

      Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.

      I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.

      He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up.

      I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success.

      Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
