I agree, but myself and a few friends of mine used to attend the WH games regularly. We would never miss. About 8-15 of us would sit together and would yell so loud all game long we couldnt talk the next day. We'd leave with headaches, but it was so much fun. Never any profane comments made and nothing severely derogatory for that matter.. Not about the kids, anyway. "Cmon Ref, are you blind!?!?". Or "what are you doing, coach!?!?" was about as mean as it got. ...then, out of nowhere, after about 4 seasons of being the "cheerleaders in the stands"  several of us recieved letters in the mail telling is to tone it down.  We were out of hand and were too "rowdy" for a family environment.  Needless to say, it took the wind out of our sails and our spirit section dispersed.  :( 
The players would always compliment us, the fans would rally behind us, but apparently someone had a problem with our volume and our over-enthusiastic demeanor. We still go to every game we can, still support our team whether they're 2-8 or 8-2, but we don't yell like we used to.  ... It's actually kinda sad.

I have been to games where there were groups screaming and it was really fun..... and I have been to games where they were screaming and talking smack about our players. I don't think that it was the screaming but in the heat of the moment sometimes things are said that a little out of line... Remember those are kids.. Not saying you did that but I have SEEN that!

I'm definitely aware that they are kids, and personally have never yelled a derrogatory comment about a young man on the field. Our group wasn't negative or slandering, but I know what you're saying. Some people get on the kids like they're pro's. It's nonsense. I'm sure it's in the heat of the moment, but it's still wrong.
I just think some folks are too sensitive and shouldn't go to football games if they can't handle loud, enthusiastic people or grown men acting like kid themselves.  Lol. I'm
Sure it was loud last night at WH though. Sounds like it was a full house!

I've had people ask me to 'sit DOWN' at the state final (PNG /Stephenville) obviously not PNG fans. I've also had a lady 25 seats over wave for me to quit whistling. I was about to go postal. This is a football game and it is the state championship!

I like to get loud and get on the refs and I hurt for the boys when they make mistakes, but I think 99% of the time I control any negative comments to the players and coaches.(the coaches have families in the stands)

It grieves me when fans head for the exits when their team has just gone down by ?? points. I have seen way too many come backs, plus it is just disrespectful to the players who have worked very hard to be there.

I noticed it was gone this year too. Have not found it. It was weak anyway. Nothing like the knowledgable fans here on SETX!  I was referring to last year.

      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.
