Thank you, Mr. Furches...I have been wanting to say essentially the same thing. I would like to add at least one more point to that list...and it also applies to Gutwrench, ACBulldog and some others who don't seem sincere in their comments. A person' character reflects in his speech and his deed. You are also a reflection of your parents, your coaches and your environment. We are quick to defend our coach, but hammer the "new" guy who takes the reins. Believe me, you are disrespecting your old coach every time you open your mouth.

I find the whole Chenoweth tirade boring and cruel. Hammering someone over their last high school match doesn't seem to have a point to it, rather than to be cruel and hateful. This also does not apply to any coach you are defending.

If you are at KU, and continuing your life on the road to higher education. Here's a tip...try using it! This is the high school forum (last time I looked) and the population is filled with those individuals who aren't even in high school anymore. If you have something to contribute to young athletes coming up, try sharing, caring and betterment. Because that is what your former coach did...and you support him.

Finally, to those individuals trying to get a rise out of the membership by challenging their intelligence, then resorting to name calling and the use of terms like "caustic wit and humor", "witty banter" and "inciting intelligent thought"...thanks for the tips, but you should try the Golden Rule. You should also try new terms like compassion, respect, humility and decency. I believe anyone who is on here must have wrestled at one time or another and all of us know to shake our opponents hand at the end of the match...win, lose or draw. Try the same courtesy in life, because that is what your former coach(s) taught you to do.


You can lead a horse to water, but a pencil must be lead.
