I took no offense MoSooner. It's been a tough year for Liberator Nation. We lost Coach Roweton because of two members of the administration who just would not support him and Mage his career miserable for the last few years when he should have been celebrating. We had a huge community backlash when they threatened to discipline home for scoring too many points against Branson last year. You would think that would have been a sign to them to get on board.
The same two administrators have both either cost the school district thousands of dollars in legal fees for the cost of defense against charges of intimidation and or harassment or have been disciplined for inappropriate activities. They are still here and Coach Roweton is gone. I, and many like me, am not holding my ire back any more. We have three new members on the school board who seem to be getting things straight and I know we have good people running against some of the others next time.
We have a long history of issues dating back to the nineties here and those issues are finally being addressed. There are a lot of hurt feelings, anger and resentment.
What everyone needs to remember is that none of this is the fault of Coach Johnson or the boys who are playing. Any new coach has to feel his way through his first year or two. Liberator Nation needs to keep its ire directed at the two administrators and the school board members who are left who caused the problem and they need to keep supporting the team.
I'll probably get banned from the games for speaking my mind but I will always bleed Liberator blue!
