What a bunch of jerks.

Thanks for being awesome roll models and teaching our kids nothing but violence.

An Alabama high school football game got ugly as coaches from Walker and Cullman high schools brawled on the field following Cullman's 13-10 victory.

Sometimes the coaches are the biggest jackasses.

As long as they are winning it is over looked.

Not if you want to win.

It's on The Today Show right now (PST). 
I bet their families are embarrassed.

That's so sad that someone who is being put in charge of children would act that way. 

If it were a college or pro coach, I'd just write it off as sports nuts being, well, nuts, but someone who is being left alone with minors needs to be held to a higher standard.

Once someone hits me, I'm hitting back . . . brawl away boys :-)

There are bad losers and bad winners out there.  Too bad these same people are also role models to children.

Now, now . . . don't pick on Alabama.

We (as in Alabama, not my school or district) did, however, once have an asst. principal get a restraining order against a principal of another school because the principal supposedly "shoved" the asst. principal.  He was upset that she wasn't controlling her school's fans was the story I heard.

Oh, and I spent the whole weekend barfing as I read the story of an adulterous high school coach's "great love story" where he started a second family (three kids) while married to the first (two or three kids).  He didn't want to "hurt" his high school sweetheart by telling her that he had met his soul mate shortly after they married.  So he let a federal judge and a major newspaper tell her.  That's class.  And I wondered the whole time how the other two women he had adultery with (only two most people know about because of the federal judge's report) felt about this spin on the story.  What did that make them?

However, Alabama doesn't have the monopoly on coaches who are terrible role models.  Check out Penn State.  There are probably lots of other scandals known only in the regions where they occur.

Nope.  They are everywhere.  A football coach from my home state was having an affair with the captain of the cheerleading squad.  He told some of the other coaches and they didn't believe him so this idiot showed them a video of him and the girl having sex.  One of the coaches developed a conscience after a week or so and told the authorities and administration. 

I actually believe I told this story on another thread once.  It is just so incredible to me that this coach was not only sleazy enough to sleep with a student but also stupid enough to show a video to other people.  Talk about winning the dumb ass of the year award...
