fridaynightstripes reacted to Stelley in John Battle
everyone that has been arguing with me for years abt this can no longer say that gobble isnt a piece of crap. He’s been like this ever since his oldest son started travel ball. Glad to see that everyone is finally opening their eyes

Doesn't matter if it's his son or not. The coach is WAY out of line and should be unemployed, and possibly unemployable as a coach going forward.
I had to testify in court in a similar incident 15 or so years ago. Coach/dad beat the crap out of his catcher/son in the dugout between innings after the catcher attempted a pick-off on 3rd and airmailed the ball into left field allowing two runs to score. I was the plate umpire. Mama bear had coach/dad on the ground begging for his life before we even realized anything was going on. Coach/dad was arrested on the spot.
The moral of the story, you cannot, under any circumstances, put hands on a kid!

That's definitely not his son. Doesn't matter if it is or not. No place for a coach to put his hands on a player.

Yeah that’s what it seems like, family simply moved and she is going somewhere else. Kinda refreshing tbh, an athlete moving for no nefarious or self-centered reason.

This entire incident could have been avoided if the VHS coach wouldn't have ran to home like a crazy person. His runner was clearly out and he (the coach) should have been immediately ejected for his actions.

When the runner was still on the ground he appears to try and throw a right hook. Not a single Lebanon player left the bench or retaliated so yes there is no Lebanon players at fault

Where in that play did you see a kid throw a punch? Not one punch was remotely thrown? Not one Lebanon player at fault is completely laughable!

Wait, I thought the G-Men were being cheated by the officials? Where was the flag on that TD run?

fridaynightstripes reacted to fishfan in New Head Coach at Richlands
I believe issues in Richlands can be attributed to new culture of kids coming up in today’s world. We are phasing out the old ways of doing things…discipline, manners, morals, respect and plain out “want to” and grit. It’s going to take a strong minded individual to raise standards in practice and on the field if they aren’t getting it in the classroom or at home. It’s a two edged sword and very sad. Talent is there but you have to have someone who isn’t a yes man anymore. Tazewell county is well known for having the “uppity ups” and what have you run things in sports in general. It ain’t gonna stop until someone stops it. Just my thoughts, as little and as meaningless as they are. Enjoy the board , enjoy reading everyday.

fridaynightstripes reacted to Tru Blue72 in New Head Coach at Richlands
After seeing personal foul pentaly flags flying in just about ever game, and the coaches patting the responsible player on the back like he had just scored, yeah I'd say you can hang that statement on Richlands. Come on man, pull the player, set them down on the bench after pointing out that his attitude is unaceptable, let him think about it for a long period and if you put him back in the game, do so only after reafirming him that if it happens again, he'll ride the bench the next game and he'll get the point. Over and over rewarding a player for bad habits, means the bad habits will continue and they certainly proved that this year. No discipliine equals no direction, not only on the field of play, but also in everyday life.

Don’t have to have a chance to go out there and play your best and give it hell…besides, that’s what the running clock is for.

Richlands won’t win a game. This was the easiest team on their schedule. I hate it for them.

Congratulations to Union on a great game. Graham fans can blame it on the uniforms, play calling, or the bus driver. The fact is Union came to play and punched Graham's line in the mouth.
