jacf Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 i think if you look at the tape coach had is hands up before he touched the bag but even if he didnt he was well up the line where coaches are suppose to be and he had is hands up no later than when he hit the bag..he slipped no more than ten feet from the bag and just couldnt get back..he was also looking down and runnning hard ..wasnt the coaches fault and wasnt the players fault....we get a hit in the first inning after the first two men are on..then that play prbably isnt as controversial as it is....b.c palyed hard and did all they could....just was not meant to be....
Guest fred1 Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 you better believe it wasn't his fault, i've watched him play too many times to know he would give it more than 100% to win and believe he would have scored but unfortunately the sign was too late for him to stop and we should have won anyway before that play came about. You say his head was down, well i guess so, had to see the bag you know. He's a very baseball smart player mentally and physically and we can't wait to see him next year. Joe did a superb job and we know he was proud to be a part of the Cardinal Team.
Guest fred1 Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 Wasn't Billy's Fault!! Plain and simple!!!!! He said the video showed Coach Bryant putting on stop as the kid touched the base. The kid was looking down.hey, when and how many coaches take responsibility of a bad play? I agree that Joe could not have done anything different. Had the stop sign been given soon enough he wouldn't have been going so fast and could have stopped. And also, that kid has a name, it is Joe and he's earned the respect to be called that.
besbolbenbedygud Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 JMO......since I have nothing else to talk about but baseball.........I don't know a coach that would not take responsibility for a loss no matter how it happened!! Players win games..............Every coach i now takes the rap for the losses..........Also....sometimes this gets lost but calling players Kid, or the runner, or the left fielder get used to keep KIDS names out......I don't think any disrespect was intended..........I wasn't at the game nor did I see the play...........I think if the outfielder fields the ball before the player gets to the bag.....you hold him up (arms scouted of course)......If the runner reaches the bag before the outfielder fields the ball........you send him........I was not there so I don't have an opinion...........It's unfortunate to end a game like that but it's always unfortunate when your on the wrong end no matter the score......Great season for BC.......I'm sure they will be ready to fight for another great season next year......Good Luck to Jasper.........SETexas needs a winner........Bring it home!!!
Guest fred1 Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 I respect your opinion as well as anyone elses. I have my own too. The Cardinals played great baseball this season and we are all proud of each and every player on the team. It's only natural that we would want to go to state especially for the senior players to have one last shot at it but also for every other player to have that one of a kind experience in High School. The quote earlier, it just was not meant to be, is right. We'll try again next year or the next, whatever it takes. Bridge City has an excellent ball team and superb players. My best to each and every senior this year. I have confidence that the Cardinals will earn their way to State again. Way to go Cardinals, a devoted fan. Good luck Jasper.

besbolbenbedygud Posted June 5, 2007 Report Posted June 5, 2007 It's sad you can tell you are not for or against either team............your just against Coach Bryant........................What nine year old select team do you coach.........I've got some time.......I'd love to come take notes on your coaching methods..........
j_dog Posted June 5, 2007 Report Posted June 5, 2007 I said the instant that the umpire called the third out at third that somehow that play would be disected ad nauseum by BC fans, if they can be called true "fans".If there are any "lessons" the coach and players need to learn from what happened, they can work on that in private next year.The truth is that the BC team had a great year, the BC coach did a superb job, and both team and coach should be congratulated and praised, not criticized.
Critter Posted June 5, 2007 Report Posted June 5, 2007 TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH J_DOGTHANKS.....THERE SHOULD BE CONGRATS TO ALL...
Guest ballfan Posted June 6, 2007 Report Posted June 6, 2007 Congrats BC on a great season. And just now reading all the posts I have gained a new level of respect for the BC players they are handling this loss like class acts. Again congrats on a great season and see you in district.

I do know baseball..
besbolbenbedygud Posted June 6, 2007 Report Posted June 6, 2007 My response to you was in regards to Coach Bryant(not that he needs me or anyone else to come to his defense).........You have been allowed by this forum to bash him over and over........Give the man a break.......If decisions he makes don't affect your life then give it a rest............Opinions are opinions but you announced tour dislike for him on numerous occasions..........so it was obvious when this situation came up you would be front and center to say Coach B's coaching lost them the game...............One play......any player or coach that gets raped up in one play losing a game is missing the point of the whole sport........It's all about mistakes......and dealing with them......but why am I telling you this you already know everything!?!?!No I was not at the game........that has no barring over how many games I watched or participated in this year.........You are the one clueless in that regard.......playing, coaching(non high school at that),umping, and watching a million games doesn't mean you now anything.............Any topic about the spacifics of the game you want to discuss........."Im your huckelbarry".........."that's just my game"............but see we can agree or disagree on any topic and that does not mean either one of us is right or wrong........each person has their own idea and style...........again you know that ........you know everything!!!........lol.....LOL.....lol
