Communication breakdown

In retrospect, Coach, maybe texting a German player “I’m your new Hitler” wasn’t the smartest approach to take.

    Guessing “I’m you’re new Angela Merkel” didn’t carry the same impact.

    I’ve heard far worse on the practice field. Twitter is da debil.

      Coach sounds like a real ass, but the player sounds like he had an agenda.

      I knew it wouldn’t take long for the first “what’s the big deal” comment. Just what I’ve come to expect from some of the readership here.

        Exactly. We all know who is literally Hitler, and it ain’t Jason Brown.

          That’s true. And yet, in what context would this be an appropriate way to talk to another adult? The military, maybe? Is football the same as the military?

          I get that sports are different from other learning and/or performance environments, but is there no limit to the manner of humiliation and degradation? Asking seriously.

      So in the old days when fewer people knew about it, that would have made it ok to say?

        I say yes, the entire world knows something, and folks go crazy. People scrutinize every single comment, looking for a reason to be upset. I can’t believe the shit that folks put on social media, with their name attached to it.

    It is absolutely shocking that Jason Brown stepped in a pile of shit. He seemed so thoughtful and articulate. The kind of guy that was very precise with his speech. Jeez, He has always operated on the very fringe of what is acceptable. it is the primary reason that he is still a juco coach. I am just surprised that people are surprised.

      It’s disgusting how Cornyn is trying to dodge the obvious fact that quoting someone is exactly the same as endorsing their positions.

        It’s hilarious how you’ve missed the obvious irony of Cornyn’s quoting Mussolini – that quote was Mussolini criticizing democratic socialist government structures. So he’s simply underscored that he’s on the same side as Mussolini.

          No, I agree with you. Mussolini had a plan for a complicated situation. That’s why he was the boss and the democrats were in the cheap seats.

    “The Montgomery County Chronicle has greatly diminished my ability to do my job…” Christ. How much you wanna bet this guy is all about demanding “personal accountability” in the locker room.

    I was wondering if the context made it any less stupid, like it was a joke or something. But no, it was just bullshit tough guy coach talk. He should have gone with “I’m your new Bismarck.”

    Wonder how this will affect the next season of Last Chance U. I was already looking forward to watching this jackass meltdown during what was an awful 2017 season for Independence.

    *Disclaimer- I’ve never played organized football. (But I was in the USMC, I saw plenty of disrespect in boot camp)

    This guy was/is vulgar and disrespectful at times to his players. I understand that different people have different leadership styles, but his is wrong. I refuse to believe that you can’t get a message across to young men without being vulgar and belittling like this guy is. But he has a beach house and 3 Caddy’s, and I don’t.
