The TSSAA wishes to issue the following statement in the aftermath of its botched video football playoff announcement this morning.

 

“We heard about something not going right and that a lot of people might have been inconvenienced by something this morning.  This is not the first time that we’ve inconvenienced a lot of people and it will not be the last.  The decision to try to video the brackets was a judgment call and our bylaws do not allow us to accept any responsibility for anything especially when judgment is involvedâ€, commended Executive Director Childress.

 

Executive Director Childress went on to say that the 50-50 gate playoff split was still in effect.  “Despite the Association having $3 million in cash, making a half a million a year and one of the highest paid executive staffs around, you just never know when you’ll need a little extra cashâ€.  “Yes we know that some programs can’t afford trainers and basic stuff, but when you spend a lot of money you need a lot of moneyâ€. 

 

Childress concluded by encouraging fans to support their teams “wherever we may send themâ€.

The arrogance by the TSSAA is downright offensive. Even when it is obvious that they are way over their heads, they refuse to take any responsibility. Something needs to be done

How about let a Professional Broadcaster DO THE TELECAST. The Nashville and Knoxville stations that have the Thursday night games do a Great Job.

I wonder how many people will read this and not get the satire?

[airstrip1]

I wonder how many coaches, ADs, or school principals ever look at this Associations financial statements or tax returns and question any of this.

I left my comments on this thread last night, but it appears a moderator did not appreciate my style of humor.
