Whew....are you done yet???eyes r burning;1367149 wrote:Not sure way you edited your post? But yes I was very serious, I'm telling you that Dale or Louie could and would bring this program back (and would not have let it get to it's current state).
It would be tough for one to pull double duty, but I'm 110% sure he could pull it off. I'm sure your asking yourself why I believe he could do it?
Because he is a LEADER, great LEADERS surround themselves with with talented people they trust, listen to and believe in!!!
Now I'm not saying we would of hung with the upper tier teams in the league, AN NO ONE expected Z's coached team too either! I know you will say we were out sized, non-athlete, junior high like crap, but can you honestly say 1-9 chipps, 2-8 Ritt, 3-7 ? Dat. had more size an talent the we did? I say No and I'm sure you will say Yes, so for the sake of argument lets say we were equal in size an talent.
Now by this point in the season I had seen enough, so I was just following the paper an getting second hand info from guys at work, these games were not even close, I would really like an explanation from a self-proclaimed expert as yourself about how we could not compete against the lowest tier teams?
Here are three possible things that could of happened.
1) Totally over matched, size and talent. (if this is the case football should be dropped an lets go play hiland and CC in soccer)
2) Terrible game plan (out coached)
3) The players could not will themselves to play for the current leadership, they wanted to practiced hard, but their MINDS just would not let them. They quit, not physically but mentally, this his hard to over come!
Now I'm sure you will say #1, which really tells me, the buy in we can expect in the years to come an the future looks mighty dark. But I will on the other hand go with #2,3.
Well I have to get to work an get my daily waynedale beat down from my co-workers (you know I had to wear blue & white for a week after the chipps game, not one of my higher points in my life)
Can I ask a favor of you today? I would like you to walk over to the library and do some research on a few things 1) constructive criticism, 2) Leadership, 3) Erosion. Hopefully you can let me know your views on these 3 things an we can discuss them at a later time. One other thing I would like you to think about, a great football player does not automatically make you a great leader, an leader are born not made. You look at a a lot of great coaches, must barely played, but what they can do is lead people, not by force but because they want to follow then, it's a gift.
Got to roll!!!!
Again, your first few sentences just prove to me your ignorance about the entire situation at Waynedale. You just keep feeding me with the proof I need to show your lack of relevant facts.
I do have you figured out now. Your "jaunt" isn't quite as short as your fence-hugging buddy "0-21" but yours is still a hop, skip and a jump away. Why don't you just head over before you go to work one day and catch Coach Z at lunch and let him know your thoughts OR maybe you have done that already (deja vu?!?!?!) I bet when you wore that blue and white to work it felt good since those were your high school colors, didn't it?
"General" you honestly need to rid yourself of your opinion that I am at the school...I am no where near that place on a daily basis.
Constructive criticism is a communication technique intended to identify and find solutions to problems in a positive way. Hmmmm...."Terrible game plan (out coached)" is POSITIVE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? And that is just one small example of all the negative vomit that has come out of your mouth on this forum. I can only imagine the things you have said to your sons over the years about their coaches. Just think how much more successful they COULD have been if you would have just accepted your role as a supportive parent.
