And now we are attacking intelligence. Keep digging that hole buddy. I'm sorry my grammar on a message board is not up to your standards.

I don't think I mentioned my intelligence once the only person that did that was you. I said facts beat you I did nothing other than state those facts it has nothing to do with my intelligence. But continue to think what you want and hide from the truth.

CTRL C and CTRL V you have mastered. Congrats

What about the land that is already purchased? Is there not enough room for a soccer field on the farm behind the sports complex as well as a school and any other field you would like to build? Because I'm pretty confident that the answer to those questions is a resounding yes. Again another one with no more comment because facts and truth prevail. Funny how that works.

If you raise enough money in the soccer booster club you can build Wembley Stadium and no one can say a word to you. But that would also require this group of parents to do something other than Google Title IX.

You choose not to engage further to stop digging yourself a bigger hole, nothing else. You tried to diminish the legacy of a good man and football coach and you were soundly defeated by reason and facts. Go continue to live in your fantasy land playing victim that these girls are treated differently because that is a flat out false. You have diminished what the group of girls were able to accomplish by pushing false narratives that took the attention away from them. Congratulations. Also you're welcome for the etiquette now try to put it to use.

Also why is a field not feasible what are the things that are keeping the field from being built?

I'm glad you described to me an 8 team single elimination tournament I couldn't for the life of me figure that out. I never compared to what this soccer team accomplished to any other team. I know the significance of what they did. 1. It had nothing to do with him leaving, if you read anything that I said it had nothing to do with soccer being the reason he left, please go reread. 2. The only reason it has people riled up were because Charlie Murphy, that seems to be in your corner about this stuff, attacked DD on here about soccer so that's something you should talk to your soccer parents about. 3. If it was such a problem to play on the practice field why was DD never asked by the coaches or the booster club of the soccer team about playing on the game field and finding a way to help him take care of the field? Seeing as he is the only one that does anything to the field. 4. If scraps are an irrigated practice field that is maintained just like the game field those are some pretty darn good scraps. 5. What this group of people trying to make this resignation about soccer is doing is taking away the accomplishment of the team by forcing the focus not on soccer. So if any one is belittling what they did it's the ones forcing this narrative because it takes away from them. 6. I cannot wrap my head around you actually backing up the parents rushing the field. And only doing so because the students did is crazy so following suit of high schoolers makes sense for the parents? Does that sound crazy to only me or what? A parent should never repeat NEVER go on a field or playing surface unless they are a medical professional and are assisting a potentially serious injury. I don't care what the circumstances are. Learn how to support in some other manner if you think that is acceptable.

Everything boothman said is spot on. I went to one soccer game this year and was so embarrassed by the actions of these parents it was uncomfortable. I will not be back in attendance to any more games. I have played sports in a lot of environments and that was one of if not the most embarrassed for a group I have been in my life. Watching parents run up and down a sideline screaming and yelling nonsense at a state tournament game nonetheless was unbelievable behavior for grown adults. When the game ends and PC wins most of these same parents rush the field to celebrate. Was it the state championship? Of course not, it was the first round. It was such a look at me move by these parents the kids were not able to celebrate with their teammates and coaches which actually won the game because they were having to maneuver around parents. Again unbelievable actions, especially after a first round game. Luckily I didn't make it in time for the district tournament game when multiple of these parents were kicked out of the game because as you know you have to be seen as a parent. It goes back to demanding free rooms just the look at me and reward me for doing my job. Since when is doing something you are responsible for supposed to be rewarded like it was something out of the ordinary. I also ask the question how much money has been raised to help get the soccer field built by these parents? What would be their demand if they raised money for that, box seats at the games? I was around for the baseball field being built I witnessed first hand the amount of fundraising, time, blood, sweat, and personal money spent to build a field. I was there helping the entire time it was being built. If you want the field bad enough you can get it done and you can do it right, just look back at how nice the baseball field was from the time it was built until 2013. Enough about soccer. The athletic department as a whole is in such a bad place at PC its saddening. Coaches are backed into corners into doing things they do not want to do but for a job they have to do. I want to preface the rest of this paragraph by saying I appreciate the coaches that are there because it takes a lot to be in the positions they are in. How does a baseball program that had 5 consecutive region births with 2 region championships and a state tournament bid go to being a program that will not hire a baseball guy that wanted the job? I know someone that tried to get the job and teach in the classroom starting in 2014 but could not find a position for him, now he has been a 5 teacher multiple years in row and teaching AP Biology with a district championship under his belt at another school but couldn't find a spot for them there. There are coaches at the middle school level that never played a sport and now a middle school football program starting that had yet to ask DD for input to help the transition into high school before his resignation. I could go on forever about DD and what he meant to me and so many others before and after me but most everyone already knows what he is about. With that said thank you DD for everything you did for that program and community. The problem starts from the top and until something is fixed at the Central Office the community will suffer. PC is a place of Pride and should be treated as such, where coaches want to be and kids want to play hopefully one day it will return to what is should be.
