None of what I said is about being late to a meeting and then asking for a promotion...? I just said there's really no reason to spend all that time... its generally unnecessary. Many of us, myself included often make too big a deal out of this game. It's my passion, and my livelihood, but I will never let it affect how my son is raised, or how my wife is treated. Of course there are times that she understands she kind of takes a backseat (in season specifically), but I'm never going to be the guy who sits around the office in June throwing pencils at the ceiling and watching hours of NFL/D1 video clips. I do that at night when the family goes to bed. Which is exactly what this thread is referencing, along with overworking kids kid are not choosing to skip football because they are over worked. They work 2x aas hard at video games, summer job, school, gettin' some. And they still find time to drink smoke weed, or whatever. The reason do not come is because they justifiably see a double standard. The players are suppose to at x number of work outs a week during summer. Most coaches can't be but once a week during summer. Coaches justify just the way you did. " I am a man, I have kids I have to feed!" That is the average coach. But when the kid misses a work out, "we a part of a brother hood, you be lettin' your brothers down" from same coach who does his weekly appearance. The kid rightfully so flip the coach the bird. You want to say we spend to much bs'ing? I wouldn't argue that. We do a lot of thing that simply defy logic and is done because. That does not justify the double standard many coaches have when it comes to their players. Its the adults not the kids. Kids play every other virtually year round down here. Its not work that is the problem, and you are not fooling them. Well, I sure as hell ain't foolin no one. My kids work their tails off and I work twice as hard.

None of our coaches missed a single workout nor were late all summer and we had some kids quit. And we are in a football powerhouse school. You seem to have all the answers. What is the reason for them wanting to quit?? LOL!!!what leads you to to believe I want anybody to quit? You are either a genius troll or a dumb son of a b!tch...haven’t figured it out yet

We just had 3 kids quit in the last week, citing different reasons.. When our kids are there, our staff is there, but we don't waste time sitting around.. as I stated in my previous post. It sucks for you that you have to work with guys who make excuses and don't show up, probably more indicative of the program you're a part of than the general football culture. Steve Spurrier is notorious for playing a TON of golf in the summer, his thoughts... get your stuff done and get out... is he an average coach? It's guys like you that this post is about... calling people average because they value family and free time. I'm sorry that you're mind and viewpoint of what "hard work" is has become so warped I personally love the guys I work with. I am just telling what see and hear from my kids and see in my program. And we are not unique in our area. You have to be a troll.. I mean there's no way you can talk out of both sides of your mouth like this without knowing you're doing it. Your post that I quoted was about you complaining about guys who can't set their alarm and show up.. and your next one you say you love the guys you work with but the kids don't buy it. Maybe you're ok with guys being late or missing things and your kids aren't? If the kids want them fired because they are never there, and you still love them... what's wrong with that picture? I will give you props.. you certainly get guys on this board talking. Troll master level 1000
