QUOTE(The Tron Special @ Apr 1 2007 - 05:54 PM) 826427689[/snapback]There you go hatin on another good player. I have seen Kat play many times and he is not a dirty player. He is just freakin real.

 

I am not "hatin" on anyone- and I do believe that he is a great player. The fact is that him being" freakin real" will cause some player to be out for the season when they get in a "real" fist-fight for trying to duck under a player as they jump for a header. I can see when these things happen accidentially, however, ducking under someone while they are in the air and then stepping into that player while they are above them is intentional. I have seen it done 4 times. It is such a concern for me that I warned the Houston coach about it and he told his players to be aware of it. Sure enough, he did it again...and when he did the Houston coach was yelling about it. Rightfully so!! My own son will be playing soon and I can tell you that he has seen this- and if this happens to a teammate of his, it will be his last game of the season. I fully expect that the insueing fight that it will cause will be one to remember. I just know that this type of play ends up seriously injuring someone. At this point it is a matter of when, instead of if someone gets injured. What happens when someone tries and do the same thing in return?? This causes nothing but disaster and is terrible for soccer. It has to stop!!

Suggestion. Tell you son to jump not into an opponent and he probably will not have anyone ducking to keep from getting hurt. Your barking up the wrong tree here , but you are right in saying that if your son trows a punch it will probally be his last game!

Wow.....all this about one player who is going all out for the ball. I agree that it is bad when it is done intentionally, but to call out Nathanial like that is out of line. I have played with and against him so many times i cant remember and he would never do that intentionally. If he is running towards an air 50/50 ball and thinks he can get it at his feet he isnt going to jump up for the ball, with out thought you immediatly go for the ball regardless of who is in front(side)(back)of you. Its soccer instinct, yes it might happen more than once but the player is not trying to injure another or intentionally foul them. Specially Nathanial in this situation, he is a phenominal player and person. Like the other person said, your barking up the wrong tree

      Winds of Change Blowing in Trousdale.

      I havent kept up with Keeton since he went to Oakland, so hearing he is in a BOE role now, that may trump him coming back.  Rennard on the other hand. That dude is a Man Builder! And he was cut loose this spring from Scotts Hill. Heard him in a interview a few month back and he inspired me. He needs to be back home in the Purple & Gold, regardless of if he is HC or not or even if he doesnt coach at all, his presences will improve the environment. But Again, I have no clue if he would even be interested.

      Shoulders from Macon co.  A creasy protege. Has the best coached team in the area as of late. Not much shot to win a state title at Macon but could very well be a contender with the talent coming up through the peewee and junior high ranks in TC I hear. He my dark horse candidate. trousdale co fans could also brag to their neighbors that they talked their best coach into coming to TC on a year of such high expectations at Macon co. My dark horse candidate

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      The baseball field is the baseball field. There are no clear favorites. It is a central location so that is why it is the site. This gets talked about every year and it is always the same answer.
