So let me get this straight. A group of young men who played their guts out , never gave up , and yes gave up a chunk of yards embarrassed themselves. Wow , coming from someone who I guess was a all American in high school. The only thing embarrassing is how stupid your comment is. Get real. These boys aren’t perfect , and the last time I check every team gives up some type of total yards. Some more , some less. A win is a win no matter this you get it. Far from embarrassing SMH
No, I was not an All American and not even close to being All State, but I don't know why you think that makes any difference. I did turn in some embarrassing performances from time to time and tried to learn from those experiences. My comment was not hateful, it was not directed at any player, and I doubt that very many kids or adults who have played sports have never been embarrassed at their own performance or at a coach's performance or behavior over some game.

And when I use the word embarrassed, I am not suggesting that the players literally hide their faces and I am also not using the word as a synonym for "ashamed." Players should never be ashamed of how they played if they gave maximum effort - if they don't make any mistakes, then they are not taking enough risks. I could have said that the defense must have been disappointed to give up so many yards, but I didn't. Forgive me for not being more sensitive the the feelings of those who might be offended by my choice of words. I don't have an editor looking over my wording before I hit the Post Reply button. Corbin gave up 747 yards in its first 5 games and then gave up over 500 yards in their sixth game. I don't think anybody expected that result, including Simon Kenton. I doubt that Corbin will give up that many yards of offense in another game, no matter how deep of a run they make in the playoffs.
Well said. I took it the wrong way and am man enough to apologize. I tend to take things personal when I think someone is being derogatory towards our boys. Especially since my son is on the team. All forgiven.
This is one fine post, and shows what great character you have. It made my day to read it.
