Hey Howdy Doody, wrong again. I know the person your talking about but I dont know if he has a coacht screen name or not. I've been a cubs fan and never tried to get the basketball coaches removed. I have talked about the way they treated the kids in the locker room after a game. By putting the loss on the kids and not taking responsabilty for their mistakes, like bad substitutions, not calling time out when they should have, bad or no play calling, and so on. I dont remember talking about the football coach, but I can if you wont me to. As for why you hav'nt heard from me for a while.Maybe I just dont have a dog in the hunt anymore. And to tell the truth, the biggest reason I ever posted was to get a rise out of you, AND IT WORKED.

HEY HOWDY DOODY, CONNMAN HERE, GLAD YOU MISSED ME BUT DONT CONFUSE ME WITH SOMEONE ELSE. I JUST HAV'NT HAD TIME TO PLAY WITH YOU.

WELL AFTER CHEATHAMS WIN TONIGHT OVER EAST ROBERTSON, 47 TO 6, I GUESS WHAT EVERYONE IN THE STANDS LAST YEAR WAS SAYING WAS RIGHT. "LAST YEARS LOUSEY SEASON IS ON THE COACH". OTHER THAN 3 SENIORS THAT GRADUATED AND AND A COUPLE OF FRESHMAN THAT CAME IN, MOST OF THIS WINNING TEAM WAS SITTING ON THE BENCH LAST YEAR! YES THEY WERE FRESHMAN LAST YEAR, BUT THE PLAYERS THE COACH TRIED TO WIN WITH HAD NO HIGH SCHOOL EXPERIENCE EITHER, AND ALOT OF THEM ARE NO LONGER EVEN PLAYING. BOTTOM LINE IS CHEATHAM COULD HAVE STARTED THOSE FRESHMAN, WHICH HAVE BEEN PLAYING TOGETHER SINCE JR. PRO, BUT CHOSE TO PLAY A BUNCH OF KIDS THAT DID'NT EVEN KNOW HOW TO PLAY FOOTBALL. I GUESS COACH DID LEARN FROM HIS MISTAKES, HES STARTING A COUPLE OF FRESHMAN THIS YEAR, AS HE SHOULD. GOING TO BE A GOOD YEAR!

HEY bigdaddy67, Hows it looking at cub country this year? I think 2 a days ended today and I was wondering if you still think all those youngsters are going to come out "kicking butt and taking names". I thought connor was going to be the QB but Im hearing brinkly is taking a bunch of snaps too, is he going to be the backup QB? Is the OL and DL set or are they still trying to figure them out? I know by the end of last year they had the right guys on the line,finally. And the BIG QUESTION, what about corners??? I know your pumped and ready to see whats going to happen this season, its gotta be better than last year.Talk to soon.

I posted a reply yesterday on this thread to bigdaddy67 regarding howdoitknow being banned from coacht. scaldeddog17 responded with an explanation on why howdoitknow was banned. and today those post have disappeared from coacht, whats up with that?

hey howdoitknow sorry i hav nt replied lately i ve been on vacation. we were discussing the possibility of double disappointment on another thread but after reading your post on this one i thought we would just take it up from here. you mentioned a half a dozen players that were underachievers because they " just were nt football players". and here you name a dozen or so you expect allot out of this year. so here's my point; the underachievers you speak of were 1 sophomore and the rest juniors. now most of the ones you expect to be performers are freshman and an eight grader coming in. so the point im trying to make is that you, and the coaches, had 2 or 3 years to see what those guys could do. so if they were nt football players, why were the expectations so high. and you ve only had 1 year see what the new guys can do, but again high expectations. honestly i hope your right this year, but i was hoping you were right last year also. i guess we will see in 13 weeks!

Sounds like last season you had 6 players with little or no experience that did'nt live up to expectations and this year you have 14 with little experience but high expectations. Sounds like double the disappointment this year! good luck.

cant wait

Cheatham gets a big win tonight at mont. cent. They play waverly tomorrow, if they play as well as they have in the past couple of weeks, anything is possible but they have to shut down the kid that scored 40+ points on them last time they met. Coach needs to put someone in his jock strap. Not that it matters

WHAT THE ????

howdoitknow, I sense a lot of hostility in your posts. Maybe you should seek some anger management counseling. Did you REALLY say that individual stats dont matter? What is that person at the scorers table writing in that book during the game? I have never heard of a TEAM getting a scholarship because of the team stats. And as for the coaches have you ever heard the expression " we'll just have to agree to disagree". cause I do like them. I like Obama too but I dont like his job performance.

Hello Howdoitknow, Im glad you like my post, the only reason I post is to humor you. I couldn t help but to notice you were quick to defend the football coach but you had nothing to say about how good the basketball coaches were doing. Are you seeing things as I do now? Also I was wondering which one of my many failures in my life do you think was the biggest one? Yenom, I do like the cheatham coaches. I just think they should be doing things different, after all it aint working now. I like that idea of becoming a teacher and coach, I think Ill check into that.

Respect is earned not given, coacht is the place to voice an opinion, you dont have to agree with it. If your not from elizabethton or know anything about them, then you need not comment on things you know nothing about. And it does matter what the coaching staff has done. They are hired to teach and develop kids into ball players. If they are not doing that properly then they need to give it up and move on.

Cheatham took another beat down tonight. Mont Cent came to town and beat them 40 to 60something. I know all the cheatham talk is about how young they are but they seem to be getting worse every game instead of getting better. They played better against Rossview, Kenwood and Station Camp than they have against any district team. I also know howdoitknow gets upset if anyone says bad things about cheatham coaches, but somethings not right there either. There seems to be a different starting line up every game. They played the whole bench tonight, for reasons unknown. It seems they are putting lesser talented players in to motivate the top eight to play better, ( they must of got that from the football coach ) when they need to concentrate on making the top eight better. REMEMBER 6 OF THE TOP 8 HAVE VERY LITTLE EXPERINCE. You get game experience by being in the game. They took the best shooter out of the game in the 3rd and never put him back in???? Any coach can take talented players and win, it takes a good coach to take not so talented players and teach them to win. Dont wont to hurt anyones feelings, but I probably did. sorry.

Waverly beat the pants off cheatham tonight, 50 to 85, would have been worse if wavo had not put in thier jv. Vogul had 11 3 pointers. I dont know what is going on at cheatham, the more they play the worse they get, they still cant handle a press and dont seem to know how to press. Vogul shot at will from the 3 point line, nobody even close to him. After halftime wavo went on a ten point run, then cheatham coach pulled all the starters. I guess it gave the second string some valuble experience.
