As a fan of Raceland football, it irks me to see certain homers on the coaching staff. Former players who played anywhere from the mid-to-late 90's to early/mid 2000's. Truth be told a few were better athletes than myself, still not saying much. The same individuals who were part of past teams who couldn't find ways to win tough, close games. Same people who toss footballs in the endzone costing the Rams a playoff win, dropping balls in the endzone killing momentum, trying to be a hero instead forcing a turnover or two. I could go on for days. Keeping homers on staff only works if you're a Mayfield, Beechwood, Highlands, etc. Ya know, former players who have won on the highest levels and know what it takes to get to the Promise Land. Whenever the "good ole boys" and their inner circle folks exit and a new fresh, outside the box coaching staff rolls into town it'll always be "coulda would shoulda" for Raceland football.

I heard a lot of grumbling going on about this staff during the game on Friday night. I've talked to several former players who have played for Maynard and Salmons and those players had no confidence in the coaches then and I'm not talking about players who never saw the field. I have had conversations with several ex coaches and they ask the same questions I do, where is the hustle, where is the toughness.

I've said it before and I will say it again and again, this coaching staff will gain my respect when they win a toss up game against a team with a winning record.
