We can all agree to disagree on this subject, but in the long run its all about the kids.  If they have the opportunity to do something that they have never done before, then let them have that chance and let them enjoy it.  It may only last a week for some, but let them have that chance.  8)

This is true, but this forum is about the only place I get to complain to people that either understand or actually care!  ;D

Burkeville, Sabine Pass, and High Island all need to go to six man. Maybe then they can compete against a school like Evadale that constantly fields 20+ students on a varsity squad against those schools who field at the most 15(being generous) players. Evadale is the only school in the district that even fields a JV squad..cmon.. how fair is that.

I agree but you know as well as I do...most schools are too proud to go sixman because they feel like it is a step down.  Look at some of the schools who were getting their faces kicked in year in and out in 11man....they have gone sixman and never looked back....Throckmorton,Calvert, Oakwood,etc..  All three teams are powerhouses year in and out now they are sixman.  I personally would rather have success in sixman than have failure in 11 man.

The UIL needs 1A to have just two divisions, one 11 man and one 6 man, period.
[/quote]I disagree, some 6-man teams have 25 to 30 kids or more on them and with all the running they do in 6-man a team that only has 8 or 9 kids is out of it by halftime. That's like putting a 2a team in with a 5a team. If you don't believe it come to Chester and see for yourself. Maybe they need just the district champs to go to the playoffs!  ;)

    • To clarify, Dems love wars. They rage daily in the bluest of blue inner citicis. Chicago had 39 shootings over the weekend, 9 dead. Warzone. Baltimore, Memphis, Detroit, etc. I am sure was just as bloody. The blue body count rises daily. I am sure the blue defunding of police and releasing murders without any bail have nothing to do with it. Right?   
    • Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?
    • 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.
