The 3 or 4 people that constantly try to yell instructions to the players and coaches. Sit back, shut up and enjoy the game. I know this post will do no good. Those idiots probably don't read.

parents of the running back- " RUN RUN RUN."......well no crap i think he knows that he is suppose to run

[LHexPlayer]

Fans in the stands that whine about every single call a ref makes when they need to shut up because they have no what they are talking about.

People who attend games who don't take sides for fear of being called a "Homer". What is the point if you don't become emotionally invested in one team or another.:rolleyes: I would rather sit in the stands of my opponents, who are into the game than sit with my friends who are not.:D

my favorite is when the coach calls the draw on 3rd and long and they get stuffed and its the stupidest play call ever but when the rb gets a first down it was the greatest call of all time bc the defense wasnt expecting it

If the score is lopsided...like 6 TD's to 0. You think a coach will get on the bus with his team and say HEY BOYS! Don't worry. The fact they scored 6 TD's and we didn't even sniff a first down or the endzone is irrelevant. Good job! IRRELEVANT? You kidding me?

[LE Dad]

Well actually LE approaches the whole season that way. Scrimmages are used to evaluate players and scoring is not stressed . Non District games are used to prepare for district. Looking at what works and what doesn't . District is what we play. You will never see an undefeated Leopard team. We play to make the playoffs.

[wtfootball]

People that yell how great running backs are win they run untouched but then if tackled yell, "come on line". Oh and of course officials from the Bridgeport / Monahans 2009 playoff game. SHAME SHAME SHAME

That the quarterback always gets the blame for the interception.

[pirate4state]

That it only lasts 16 weeks.

[PurpleFreddy]

That coaches get too much of the credit and too much of the blame. When push comes to shove, it's about talent and numbers in high school (at least most of the time).
However, coaches who prepare their teams during the week can make a difference in crucial situations ... a tight game, or when everyone's tired, or in exploiting the other team's weakness.

Hey Rocket. When Brownwood beat SA Central
last year, in a scrimmage, in basically the same
fashion, did Freeman get on the bus with his
team and say "HEY BOYS! Don't worry"? If not...
well he should have.

[Cowboy_Up]

1. Injuries. I know it’s a part of the game, but I hate the number of injuries we see in football.
2. The win at all cost attitude. A kid gets arrested for robbery, spends most of the season in some sort of confinement, and then is miraculously free to play in the playoffs? This after his coach throws a game to get in the “right” division.
3. Teams that openly recruit players. We have a “commuter” school next door and any player who is good has been approached by the guys next door. The beauty of small town Texas football is kids that grow up in your community get to represent you on Friday nights. Why can’t we live with what our kids can do? Is winning so important that we have to recruit?
4. I hate people that claim to love the game when all they really love is their own team. Leave the game to the kids and honor all the kids and the game, win or lose.

It is called ... Dress for success.

Probably a little different here because y'all West Texas schools usually have pretty "man-sized" trips for away games! Generally, our regular season games are all within 50 miles and even the playoff games don't get too far away till the 3rd round or so. The fans I'm talking about are usually older women who couldn't pick out a football in a lineup of kitchen appliances and just gab about pointless crap throughout the game, throwing in the occasional "Oh we don't look too good!" when we are up by five touchdowns!

[Sweetwater Red]

Good point 80. We have had several early round
games that are about 150-200 miles one way this
decade.

It could be worse. You could go to Snyder and have to hear
Eye of the Tiger by Survivor (Yes they still play it), and on the
radio too when they are broadcasting the game. :doh:

as they prepared to scrimmage Frenship last Friday. :D

Rap music being played during warm ups. Yall complain about AC/DC, but I'll take that any day of the week especially when the other option is rap.

I'd definitely have to say 95% of parents and 100% of untalented kids with no hustle make football unenjoyable.

I agree 100% about the fans.

But the "social fans" are the ones that only make
it to the home games for us. The real fans are the
ones that travel to road or playoff games. You can
feel the difference in electricity on our side before
kickoff.

I can understand your viewpoint but some of us older people are on fixed income and can't afford to go out of town plus there could be health issues. A few years ago I went out of town to everything by myself but now that I have got older circumstances mostly limit me to in town games and events.

High schools with small visitors sides. When I come sit on your side and cheer you look at me stupid. Either build enough seating or sit there and take it. :mad:

In Cuero it is the opposite. (Sorry Cuero frieinds but it is the case unless it has changed the pase several years.) They don't have enough seats on the home side so many of them sit on the visitors' side. Don't get me wrong - they are nice and respectful but Cuero needs a bigger home side for their fans.

The thing I don't like about Division 1 and 2 is that a school with 600 can be the biggest school in 2 or the smallest one in 1. Also due to the setup you have teams with over 700 students getting in 2 while one with about 600 are in 1.
