I was at the Ringling vs Dickson game last Friday night. I was, in fact, reporting for Ringling on MaxPreps when your boys marched through the Dickson Spirit Line in military fashion and your "flag bearer" made a public spectacle of himself planting the Dickson flag on our field. My advice to you, Sir, is to instill in your boys, at all costs, the personal Humility you exhibited in your interview on the Saturday Morning Coach's show. That is to say, in the particular case of planting the team flag on the opponent's field, stop this illicit practice at once. On the Dickson side of things the reaction was a slight cheer; on the Ringling side of things, by contrast, the reaction was a broad sense of disgust. It was disgusting, after all. And that is beside the fact that, if you are going to (ignorantly) permit your team to do a thing like that, it isn't especially wise to permit it at a school like Ringling, or Davis, etc. Just sayin'.

Had I intended the comment above following the score to be a comment to this thread, that is the way I would have posted it. It was, however, intended, as I originally posted it, as a separate thread. Because, well, it is and was a separate issue.
Wichita Lineman: with all due respect, sir, you're going to ruin this forum with your overweening governance of all that is said or posted here. Just my two cents, for what it is worth.

I strongly reiterate, you're going to ruin these threads with your overweening governance of the content. I don't give two hoots about "proper context" or "more appropriate locations" or this and that, and most of us don't. Please stop it! You'll drive folks like me out quick, fast and in a hurry with these sorts of overweening policing activities.

The Admin has established a code of conduct and it is the responsibility of the users to follow it and moderators to enforce it. tmorris it is also not appropriate or wise to call out and threaten opposing coaches on the forum. There are numerous coaches that use this forum. Sadly, it appears you have the same anger management issues as your beloved Coach Koons. Doesn't reflect well at all on Ringling. You are free to leave as you wish or stay. Choice is yours. Hope you stay.

What in God's Holy name are you talking about?! I have not threatened anyone in these threads you nincompoop! For goodness sakes! You've lost me, dude. Goodbye.

The last sentence of your Coach Day post is pretty much a threat. This whole thing started because you made a stupid post and tried to call out a coach over a game you won by 20 and I moved it and it wasn't as visible as before and you blew a gasket. I guess I should have just followed my first instinct and deleted it but I wanted to be fair and not be accused of censoring someone.
Wichita Lineman I respectfully disagree with how you interpreted tmorris’ post. I will explain my disagreement on a following post because it may be long. His post is nothing compared to what I have seen on the past in Coaches Aide. I have been reading his posts for probably at least 7 or 8 years and he does speak his mind but would never personally threaten anyone. I know this is a new forum and being a moderator can be a very difficult and time consuming job. I also give you credit for allowing the members to see the post you disagreed with. Most moderators would have just deleted it. However, this type of moderation is what I would expect from a politically correct forum on California football not in Oklahoma. I don’t want to speak for him but I know him well enough that he may not be back. It may be time for me to leave as well. I was likely done after this season anyway because Rejoice will likely move to 2A and the senior class is the last one I have any real ties to.
