BigEdMo Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 Every one is out for Dusty “ The American Dream” Rhodes. But he is to slippery even for the T$$AA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAD SCIENCE Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 I have no idea, but I heard he ask for a explanation on the call by the umpire and he was ejected without a warning!, If this is true, then this is a big problem with the umpire!

TryNotToSuck Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 Interesting but there’s also real information that’s hidden, just like there is in any information protaining to sports. There’s a story and then there’s the real story as to why this occur. Don’t put all the blame on TSSAA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReitzFan Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) I feel bad for the returning baseball players at Haywood County. They will pay a penalty for something they had nothing to do with. This is far from the first controversy that this coach has been involved in. You know what they say about Karma, she's not a nice lady. The Bionic Elbow fell hard on The Dream. Haywood County baseball now has to deal with the nightmare.

The coach at Haywood County has created a huge mess that current returning and future players will have to deal with. I hope that the administration at Haywood County will also take apprpriate action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know Reitz at first I thought the same thing. It is a shame the kids are penalized because of the actions of the coach. But after I watched the video I feel completely different. First the coach was completely out of line. Bad call or not you just cannot act that way. He should have been ejected and fined for his actions after the ejection. And if I was his school administrator he would face severe action when he returned home. Two I don think any of the kids should have ever left the dugout. Let the adults handle the situation. You have assistant coaches. They need to be out there getting the coach off the field and the players need to stay in the dugout. Third some of the players that came on the field were yelling at the umpires and one even balled up his fists and jump at an adult. The assistants were yelling and acting a fool at times too. The whole thing was a mess by the looks of the video and it seemed like there was very little concern for doing the right thing whether you agreed with the umpires or not. My honest opinion is the TSSAA handled this correctly and the whole team deserved the ban. Maybe this will serve to change the culture and motivate everyone to handle stuff like this differently in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatwhite1 Posted June 2, 2019 Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 There are tons of coaches across the state that would love to do what that guy did multiple times over the course of the season. Luckily, 99% of the coaches have an IQ high enough to refrain from such shenanigans. The gets screwed in this deal. I bet if the school cans the coach, the TSSAA will lighten the punishment for the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the main reason the Association came down so heavy handed in some folks eyes. I agree with all your points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
