[Envy~Me~Always]

It's sad for me to read posts that are supposed to be in reference to a school's sport or team, but instead someone must try to start trouble by saying things about people who they later name that can cause serious problems.

I have read many of the posts and I agree with some comments as well as disagree with a few. I wish the Paintsville Tigers' baseball team and coaching staff all of the luck in the world.

One thing I must comment on is the way that Bob Lyons was singled out. I understand that everyone isn't going to agree with the way he coaches but that is a part of life. The man is a highly intelligent man who has a deep passion for the game of baseball and would do nothing to cause problems or hurt for the players. Bob Lyons is there because of this love for the game as well as his deep knowledge of the sport. He isn't there to further his son's baseball career, his son can do that on his own. Mr. Lyons is there because he was chosen as an assistant coach. Love him or hate him, you should respect him because he is a part of the Tiger team, not because he acts accordingly to the way you think he should.

Best of luck to the players and the coaches. Everyone is a Tiger and that should never be questioned or forgotten just because of your lack of understanding of someone and their methods, the present situation, or outright jealousy.

Coaches are there for the players. Bob Lyons is no exception!!
GO PAINTSVILLE!!!!!!:mad:
