Why is the MSM ignoring this bombshell?? [Hidden Content]

Let's take a look at Aledo. I watched their State game last year and have to admit, their athletes did not look that exceptional. But, a little history: In the past 18 years, Aledo has won "7" State Titles. Now, is Aledo a place where a school would get that kind of so-called talent year in and year out. I would say no. Just like I talked about Briles and Stephenville. It's about picking the right coach.

One has to wonder if Cornel Thompson, Art Briles, Doug Ethridge or Steve Wood (Aledo coach) was Nederland's coach would the outcome have been different? Again, mere speculation.

Very interesting! From the article: " Carthage ISD raised local property taxes, slashed most teacher benefits, packed students in classrooms, and cut 32.5 teaching, security, transportation and administrative positions." BUT -- gave the HC a $20,000 raise. Come on supporters of this type of action, help us understand this!

Not sure I would agree with this. But, it's mere speculation on both our parts. Let's take Aledo, they are playing in the second straight Sate Championship. Do you think they have better athletes than Nederland or Port Neches? Or is it coaching? Back went Art Briles was at Stephenville, he won, what, 4 State titles?! They've been decent since but not what Briles achieved. Briles goes to Baylor and has a massive turn-a-round. He leaves and they got to S**t! Think back to the Gordon Woods at Brownwood (6 Titles) and G.A. Moore at Celina (5 Titles), you think these people always had the talent? Or was the athlete coached to get them were they needed to be? A lot of times coaches will use the "we don't have the talent" excuse to cover for their failings. By the way, in the 70's, you think PN-G had the overall talent to win as much as they did? Or was it Doug Ethridge, the coach?

WOW -- silence from the minority left here! Capitalism wins again!

WOW -- the left here has gone silent! Capitalism wins again!

This brings me back, again, to ask the question: Does WOS always have the athletes year in and year out? Or -- are the athletes made through coaching?

Indeed we do! But, there's nothing Capitalist about paying people with taxpayers dollars. Basically on the contrary! In the private sector I believe you can make all you want. But, yes, we can dictate what people people make when one is dealing with tax dollars. If one doesn't like it then they can move into the private sector and make a gazillion dollars if their worth allows.

Well, me Compadre, I would agree about Teachers. But it was clear whom I was talking about is overpaid.

Not sure I would agree that administrators should be paid this type of money either!

Never once said abolish football. Said as long as teachers can't get paid this much then no one should. With that being said, I would support the legislature capping what high school head coaches make. It's only fair for the teachers!

Schools are for teaching. It would still go on without athletics. In your response never once talked about the main purpose of schools.

Do teachers make that much?

I watched the Pleasant Grove clip. This is made for WOS' defense. Stack the box and go man on the outside. Should be made to order for WOS!

IMO -- no high school coach should be paid $155,000!

And they keep winning! Interesting. Sorta brings us back to why some programs win with just decent talent. Brings us back to what I always say -- Coaching!
