  1. 1. Region 4AA Tournament



Recommended Posts

Fans who think they have to yell PASS, SWEEP or any other play the opponent is running thinking their players can hear them.

 

Parents who think this is an individual sport for their child and do not realize that all the guys are trying their best. The line is trying to block, the defense is trying to wrap-up a tackle. Parents do not need to critique other people's children from the stands.

 

Two really good ones right there.

I think it speaks volumes that the band and the obnoxious dad are tied for the top spot in this poll.

The band that continues to play even during plays (even though its supposed to be against the rules), and the cheerleaders yelling "SCORE" when their team's defense is on the field. Those are two other VERY annoying things.

 

Youth sports would be so much more fun if only those youngsters didn't have parents. :D

If this one ever happens...

 

Schools where the visitors side has 300 seats for 3000 traveling fans and the school won't let you sit on the home side even though the home team will have about 100 people show up

 

...two words for you: Lawyer up.

 

If this truly happens, someone please list me a list of schools (public ones preferably). I wouldn't mind retiring early. No school is going to tell me where to sit in a stadium paid for by tax-payer dollars.

i like the parents who think their child is 100x better than ne one else.....but the other that gets me is the parent who knows nothing about the game and then accuses a player of being the reason the team lost.... for instance i watched a game last season and i witnessd two parents talkin about the QB for their team bein the reason they lost.....it wasnt the fact their son didnt go all out all game or dropped 4 or 5 passes that could have made a difference......

 

i think there should be a class for parents before the season starts to inform them on how the game is played and that its a TEAM EFFORT.....cause some of these parents dont kno jack bout football except for what they watch occasionally on sat and sunday

Actually........the only place I have ever heard of this happening is a private school, and it was a myth. The only time I was ever at a game there it was fine. If you really want to know, just PM me.

 

Sorry for not including the "coach in the stands" as an option. To be honest, in my experience, that has doubled with the overzealous father. I was trying to throw a few light hearted ones in there too.

Folks who continuously parade up and down in front of the folks sitting in the stands that are trying to watch and enjoy the game. I don't care how 'hot' someone thinks they are and I sure don't want to watch them talking on their cell phones.

 

Some of the older fans cannot climb higher in the bleachers so their view is almost continually blocked. Especially bad in Rutherford County where the stands don't have a walkway except in the bleachers themselves. This is really bad when folks think they need to stand and watch from right in front next to the rail.

People who do not shut up and be still for the national anthem.

 

Stadium where when you walk in you are on the top looking down instead of on the bottom looking up. If you do not have small kids and strollers you would not understand.

 

Schools like South Greene where you have to go through gravels to get to the field. Again, not good with strollers.

 

Visitor parking at Sullivan South.

 

People who do not know what a trash can is. You walk right past them on your way out. Grab your trash.

 

Homecoming.

 

You know what, I love football enough to make up for these.

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
