This-is-Dillard, could you be more specific? What problems did you have with the officials?

It was a competitive game, between two good teams. No, I will not be checking out Lee vs Columbia next week. I wasn't "checking out" the game tonight either.

The field wasn't as bad as I thought.

Badbird, did the school that you coached at have red and blue colors?

If this coach is indeed Hurlie Brown, the school that he coaches at is Merritt Island. Hurlie Brown also played in the CFL.

Thank you.

I was wondering if anyone can provide any information about the 6A first round playoff game between St Augustine and Robert E. Lee? Anything about the style of the teams, or what kind of game to expect would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

That is correct STILL KRUNK.

It is not very clearly defined. The referee ultimately has final say regarding any situation not covered in the rule book in the spirit of good sportsmanship.

Thank you.

No problem for me.

Great idea. I have always believed in having more bowl game available for teams who don't make the playoffs, but have winning records. These games are a great way to have the seniors play together one more time, and let coaches get more practice time, and development for their underclassmen.

It has to do with a respectful discussion that I am having with some other posters to this message board, some of them I believe to be coaches, about coaches being suspended, and how I believe that coaches should set the proper example for the young people in their care. I have found that when coaches are respectful, their players are as well, if coaches are not respectful, their players are usually not as well. That was my point. It has everything to do with high school football with a greater emphasis on the wider society as a whole.

Well, since I just brought up that most of the young people that I deal with are decent and respectful, and I have stated that I believe that most young people learn their behavior from examples set by adults, I would guess that you are wrong in your assessment of me. I often defend young people, because I believe that most children learn from and mimic actions by adults who should know better and set the proper example.

Fine, but then I ask you to keep your political opinions to yourself. Or stop complaining about the current state Legislature when low coaching pay in the state of Florida has been an issue a lot longer then the 21 years that you have been alive.

I believe that I am trying to say the same thing but in a different way. A lot of the high school children that I encounter are very respectful ,and decent. I think that is how they are raised and taught. I admit that I don't see or deal with them as much as parents, teachers, or coaches, but I enjoy talking with them when they ask rules questions, or ask to look for something on the field of play. A great majority of coaches are also respectful and decent, the coaches who have constant problems with acting in this way are the coaches who are being suspended I believe.

No problem at all. People who wear shirts who have different color stripes care!

You are getting old Prosteye, you need to see about the OTC retirement home. Maybe Kerwin Bell, and John Brantley's parents reside there, (if they are still with us.)

The perspective that I consider if that coaches are leaders of young men and women, and should act accordingly. About 95% do act in that manner. It is the other 5% that are worrisome. I am around young people a lot, they are no different now then they were many years. It is all how they are taught and raised that makes the difference.

Coaches can show passion and still act in a Sportsmanlike and civil manner.

None of us knows exactly what happened do we? That is my point. I have another question that I would hope that somebody would give and answer or a thought to. HOW CAN WE EXPECT A 16-17 YEAR OLD CHILD TO ACT IN A CIVIL AND SPORTSMANLIKE MANNER WHEN MANY "ADULT" COACHES DO NOT ACT IN A CIVIL AND SPORTSMANLIKE MANNER?

Yes, and I have heard and seen many antics form Robert Weiner. Most officials will let a lot of coaches behavior go, if It is not directly addressed to the official. If the cursing continues , the official might let the coach know "that is enough". That is a courtesy that most officials will give to coaches There might be other factors involved with the suspension, or it might be prior incidents with these coaches who got suspended. HOW MANY TIME DO I HAVE TO BRING THIS UP? NONE OF US KNOW THE EXACT CIRUMSTANCES OF THE SUSPENSIONS!

Thank you very much Perspective, that was very nice of you!

181pl, could you provide any examples of a coach being suspended for cursing the air?

181pl, anytime that a coach curses at an official, that should be an unsportsmanlike conduct foul. Period, get that straight. Certain behavior is acceptable, certain behavior is unacceptable. Also, don't put me into that Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren Medicare-for-All, $25 minimum wage crap. I am a registered Republican.
