Our fans can be some of the most fair weathered people I have ever seen. A team that has a history of not losing very much at all and when they do boy, the sky is falling. History lesson folks, let’s take a stroll down memory lane.

1993, we had a little team get beat by Fulton Co, PT and Graves County in the first 4 games. We had people go nuts. Our first year coach had signs put in his yard, for sale. What happened, won state. That very coach won another state title 2 years later with this team and played in another state championship 3 years after that.

1999 had another first year coach off to a shaky start. He had signs put in his front yard, for sale. That team lost in the semis to a loaded team. That coach has since won 6 state championships and played in another 5 state title games.

In that stretch we started the 2012 season with a tough loss to Warren Central. The talk began right there about not being able to do it. Wel, won the first of 4 straight state titles.

The point is, teams have bad nights, teams lose, that is part of life. How many of you have made it through life without losing? I’ve lost more than I’ve won. We don’t start bad mouthing our bunch and give up. We work hard, study and learn what we did wrong. Then, we get better. That is exactly what these coaches will do with this team. Get over it all. McCracken was bigger and better last night and they won. That does not mean our team is terrible, our boys are too small, our db’s are terrible. It means they are young athletes that make mistakes. Hopefully they learn from them and this becomes one of the best life lessons you could have.

But for God’s sake please quit basking your team and let this play out.
