[quote name="cantbeat23" post="1293939" timestamp="1349624613"] 1stdown you are clueless, this is not about how good bmts 1st, 2nd or 3rd string are. this simply put is a lack of sportsmanship on behalf of Bmt. What did they expect to accomplish scoring 75 on png-g ataboys? I don't think so... I believe they blatantly scored 75 to try and prove a point, and they clearly got their point across. But the reality is, all they proved was their lack of class, integrity and respect for the game. In this case the score showed they won the game, but lost thier focus on the big picture and what the stjfl represents and promotes. [/quote] I love going back and looking at peoples post to see how they love to point fingers.....Cantbeat you said it was all about fundamentals but yet I posted a quote from you (that you never responded to) that showed you talking about a peewee game and it was NOT about fundamentals.....  Then there was this quote: [quote author=cantbeat23 link=topic=100778.msg1235514#msg1235514 date=1342148359] Oldballcoach dont hate on BC because they took care of business Thursday and rapped up district 32 in a 3 gm sweep, it's not our fault y'all could'nt handle y'alls, it is what it is, [b][size=14pt]play better is all i can tell ya[/size].[/b] I watched y'all sat against WE and I have to say, i was very impressed with Jasper's bats, but hamstrung on pitching is not the reason y'all lost tue against BC, it was 2-0 let's give BCs pitching and defense a little credit. Besides last I checked you had to score at least 1 run to win a baseball game. Must of forgot those bats in jasper Tuesday. Good luck to y'all and "God Bless" [/quote] ^^^^^^^^so...is this "fundamentals" you speak of????  ^^^^^^^^

For the older kids, 13-14, this is part of the game...ehhhh, no it's not.  Spreads are for betting, and if there is betting going on which uses the spreads posted here, it IS a violation of the rules... That would be the least of it... Again, if every parent were normal, 1.  They wouldn't take the sport seriously, and remember that it is a game; 2.  They wouldn't give their kids grief over it, but we know better, don't we? 3.  Coaches wouldn't get stpid like they did in Tustin, CA.  You want to know what lessons will be learned from that?  Just that you have to find a better way to keep it on the down low, and you have to vet the dads and moms a lot better to insure that there isn't a wuss in there somewhere to mess up the sanctity of football. I've coached before...my job was to get those kids ready to play ball, and have a good time doing it.  (Of course, I was a flag coach).  It wasn't to win at all costs, it wasn't to make the other team look like fools.  Though even in the flag ranks there were those who would teach their kids to tackle a breakaway run instead of pulling their flags, I didn't teach that.  If I was a bad coach, so be it.  My job wasn't to wear tight polyester shorts and shirt, and my old letterman's jacket, while pointing to all the flag, pee wee, and other trophies MY PLAYERS had won.  If they earned them, awesome...but at the end of the year, it was the best feeling to have a kid want to come back the following year, because I gave a d*** as a coach. Spreads?  Good for putting on bread, and bookies... [/quote] Lol I'm pretty sure the spreads that the people do on here has nothing to do with gambling lol. Pretty sure it is their opinion on how many points a team will win by lol [/quote] Good post Elhector, and I also agree with you to a certain point.  I also agree with Braby (and REALLY hope we are correct) in stating that there is no gambling going on with the spreads.....I think it's all for fun.... I've been very fortunate to have worked with coaches that do put the kids first and teach the game. I know there are bad seeds out there, I just hope it's minimal.
