Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, Jr.

Please come back. All the others seem to have run away from the scrum.

Sorry I've been gone so long. I've been visiting my family in Calcutta. They're doing fine, but I messed around and got arranged married while I was there. Seems as though my Anglo friends have been holding down the Coach T fort while I was gone. Thanks, buddies.

Scissors, Have you ever been to DL? Have you ever actually been in the school, and not just at the athletic complex? And I use the term "complex" loosely; if they are recruiting then thay are sure not luring them in by the dozens with their fine facilities. Your comments are typical of someone who has no clue of what he/she is talking about. You think you know, but that's where it gets dangerous. What the brilliant mind of vandy1 was trying to say was simple: DL's kids are predominantly a product of the Lipscomb community. Most families send their kids to DL because it's where they went, or their family went, or both. The school's been around for well over a century, and is not one of these white-flight, Johnny-come-lately types that is seeking to make an immediate impact on the scene both athletically and academically while also weeding out any undesirables. Some of their kids came after Kindergarten, but that's simply the nature of urban schools, both public and private.

You have some issues. May I recommend you get some counseling ASAP.

Seems I hit a nerve. You must be one of those aforementioned overpaid, overappreciated, overweight coaches. Oh yeah, and congrats again to Austin (but not his coaches!).

Here I am.

Man, you guys are too easy.

Please allow me to address a few comments individually. 1) "I think that is the dumbest thing i have ever heard. " Then you haven't been around the block too many times. You want dumb? Jessica Simpson. 2) "...they are the best influence a high school kid can have." Then we're in bad shape. 3) "...and being that role model is the is worth all the money they get." That makes too little sense to even respond to. PLease proof-reed. 4) "I do not see you watching the film on weekends and developing a game plan." Then come on over sometime. I devise a gameplan each and every week. I watch hours of film so I can go back and knit-pick at every little mistake the coaches make. I would be a much better coach than most of these jokers. 5) "How would deal with a kid coming into your office and crying over playing time." That's what's wrong with football today. Your question should be rhetorical, but it's not. I'd smack them upside the head and tell them to stop crying or hit the road. Simple enough.

Always good things to say about kids; never good things to say about coaches. Coaches, especially at the high school level, are overpaid, underworked, overappreciated egomaniacs. P.S. I hope the Wilkerson kid (Jamie) is 100% for the MC game. If so, the Tigers better look out!

Congrats to Austin. One heck of a player and a great person too.

To not have and abide by a detector is asinine. Any strike detected within 7 miles should require fields to be cleared and not reentered until the last strike within that range has been lapsed by at least 15 minutes.

I think I heard that Chris Hite was going to run fullback for the Stangaroos this week. He's not real big, but he makes up for it in other ways.
