But this seems a bit much to me. Wanted to get y'all's opinions. cityofRaven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixcat 2,919 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 I lived north of Austin for a number of years. Its a different world down there when you talk about football. The movies Friday Night Lights and Varsity Blues were exaggerated slightly for television and drama but only slightly. As a matter of fact, the high school in the district where I lived is the home stadium used in the television show, Friday Night Lights. The 5A-D1 state championship game had significantly higher attendance figures than 85% of the NCAA bowl games this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueinbama 259 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 My kids would never play for anyone like this, because I wouldn't let them. That borders on abuse. These kids are still babies. BlueRazor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueRazor 1,147 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Ryan my opinion on this is its just way to much. Way over the line in my opinion. Even if it were freshmen and sophomores its pretty tough hearing that. Nothing wrong with teaching them to be tough physically and mentally because you have to be all that to succeed in football but that is border line abuse. Football is in my experience a great tool to teach young men to be just that.......MEN! I think our area has been blessed to have a good number of outstanding Coaches through the years that have done a great job in coaching our young men in football and teaching them some great lessons they can apply to their future away from football. No need to start naming them because most on here know who they are. Just my thoughts. I'm sure some will disagree blueinbama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Ridiculous. Im all for producing tough football players but you don't want anyone getting hurt. Definitely shouldn't be talkin to kids like that. What kind of parents allow this? BlueRazor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
