It's amazing to me how little class has been shown here in the past by you Devils. It's not surprising that someone is actually showing a lack of maturity and class, cause you see that quite often these days...it's the fact that it's coming from a current coach to a group of kids. Being a coach comes with certain responsibilities, and arguing with other fans, calling other schools scared, putting down entire school districts because they may not sprout out the talent that you may get on a regular basis in your area...sorry dude, but you need to GROW UP. Sad to say, but it's not surprising many of things that have been reported about your team in the past if they have coaches like you to lead them. How can we expect kids to learn respect, and class, and good sportsmanship when their adult coaches are lacking it themselves.
I may be a tad biased because I'm now a middle aged guy, but back in the mid 80's I learned many valuable life lessons from coaches. Back then we had a head coach by the name of Ken Brown, and we had an assistant by the name of Tim Coleman...some of you may have heard of them as they are two of the most highly respected coaches ever in VA. They instilled in us back then a 'refuse to lose' attitude, and if we did, it was hard, but one thing they would not accept is losing without class. We chanted 'Raw Meat' back then, as a way to pump up our team(and our fans before the game), but we never once acted without class on the field, before, during, or after the game. If one of us did get too emotional and did something we shouldn't have done, they took a hard stance on it, and we made sure it never happened again. I believe i can say with certainty that with the attitude that you have shown here the past few years, you never would have made the cut on that coaching staff. Believe me, Coach Brown and Coach Coleman HATED to lose, and we didn't do it very often...but when it did, they taught us how to lose like winners. They taught us hard work and preparation paid off, they taught us no one individual was more important than the team, and they taught us to respect every individual that stepped foot on that field, whether they wore the blue and grey or not. I can say that I became a better man because of what I learned from our coaches. Being a coach to these young kids is not only a responsibility, but it is a privilege to be in a position to make a positive impact on a young person's life. It's a shame that you find it necessary to constantly come on here and show your true colors with you comments, and act in way that I personally find appalling for someone who calls themselves a 'coach' to a group of kids.
