The board meets the first Wednesday of each month. The next meeting should be November 5th. I would find out location and have specific changes you feel should be made and present those respectfully.

Again, no dog in the fight but I believe you are wrong.   1. Anyone in public can have their picture taken or be recorded......if you think not, then what about the coaches and parents that record the game?  Should the bystanders or football players file harassment charges? I was filmed on the field years ago, can I file charges?  Answer = no.   2. While there may be no rules on how to document a complaint, is there a rule that says you can't video? Answer = no   3. Lastly, once you step on to a STJFL supported event, you go by their rules......they require you pay, you pay. They ask you to leave, you leave.   I understand you guys feel the STJFL is bad, but most disagree with that and no matter how much you talk on this forum, it won't change a thing......as a matter of fact, the more you talk and the less the board talks, helps the board, not you.   Please keep your reply respectful and follow the rules ;)

  Growing pains

All we are doing is repeating the same rumors.....

  Nothing Fox   Was a general statement

WARNING:   Keep it respectful or it will be locked.

  True True True.....   Very well respected coaching team.

  Ice Tea has ALWAYS had great teams!!

Will respond in the morning

  I can't put my hands/mind around that. 

I will say it again.......I have only heard from parents and probably some coaches from the Beaumont side......I have not heard any statements from STJFL.

Those are very serious allegations considering you do not have both sides of the story

  First off, excellent response. I have no issues debating with a rational person, even if we don't agree.   To your first question, YES! If I broke a rule, I would want to know what rule and have an opportunity to explain myself.    Now, about the vagueness of the rules. I coached as an assistant in the STJFL for 6 years, and went to the Superbowl 2 times (never won) and playoff's I think every year. In that time, the only time I ever was involved in a rules violation is when our head coach forgot the players badges.....we had to run home and get them.  We never had a problem "doing the right thing"  in our eyes or in the eyes of the STJFL. So, if you are asking my opinion, the rules are clear enough for me, as I never had a problem in the 6 years I coached.   Lastly, there are always 2 sides to a story. We have heard one side but we have not heard the other. I can't make a definitive decision on who is right and who is wrong until I get both sides......however, I don't think that is going to happen because the violation involves the coach and the board.....The board has no obligation to tell me anything.   You asked for my opinion.......there you go :)   

Then don't participate in the organization.......Start your own.   I didn't like the way little league was run.......I didn't cry on a board about how unfair it was, I left and put my son on a select team.......that was the BEST thing I could have ever done.    and Madmen....instead of being flabbergasted, start your own investigation.....take the bull by the horns......   post your findings here..... ;)

White coaches have been put on probation in the past.

Keywords...RESPECT- HONOR - TEAMWORK - DISCIPLINE

I think of the 6 pages, 1 page total MIGHT have been about week 6 picks.   So, locked for off topic.   Stay on topic....if you want to discuss the STJFL or any specific town, start a topic. Be prepared to follow the rules or it will be locked.        

  You don't know TVC very well.......   Well, he does kinda have a dry sense of humor I guess.....lol

A couple of cops at $25 bucks an hour during the game times would be perfect. Give them a golf cart and let them patrol....

  I let everyone have their say....then made my comment about getting back on topic......   Marie, I will lock the thread.......You're welcome

  That is how I made it to school and made it home my entire life of school.........and I'm from Port Arthur.

  Yes it was.....

This game REALLY surprised me!   Go Dallas!

OK.....the other BMT coaches topic has been locked. Let's get back on topic or this thread will be locked.   If you want to continue to talk about Bmt or any other topic other than Sr. scores, start a new thread,
