Matt Nicholson leaving

[HookedonGriz]

How does your son and his teammates feel about playing? Are they all for it or would they rather pass at this point.

Not a single player wants to play a Spring schedule.

Interesting. I guess I would have thought after working so hard for so long these kids would be chomping at the bit to play, regardless of what it looked like. I suppose only playing 6 games and not having any idea of its for a title eventually then turning around and trying to play a full season are sticking points?

OH BS. Not true.

4 pages in, and not one person has called him out for not sticking with his commitment, and thinking about only himself, and not the team....

That reminds me: What is it with the “me first” attitude of coaches nowadays? That attitude does not make a team.

People change jobs all the time. Including coaches and professional players. Not so much with players on teams, especially team players.

Yes. Coaches can leave teams high and dry for better opportunities. Players cannot make similar decisions in their best interest. It’s selfish.

I’m really learning over here!

It’s like when Choach committed to the Honda Ridgeline. His buddies give him the business over it, but he signed the papers. Plus, it’ll be all his in just 73 more payments.

Coaches don't = players

Just like employers don't = employees.

unionized employees more equal to employers
organized players more equal to coaches

Way past time for players to be allowed to organize

Yep. But people=people. I’ll never fault a player, coach, teacher, lawyer or mailman for making decisions in their best interest.

I’ll always REP players for having rights and doing what’s best for them. Even if it means leaving a team I cheer for.

Bet your guy Andrew Schmidt agrees. As PlayerRep....I’m surprised you don’t.

Your first para is not accurate.

Not siding with anyone. Just laying out the facts.

People in your list of 5 often don't make decisions in their best interests. For lawyers, it would be unethical to do that.

Bullshit. Maybe if you paid union dues for 30 years, maybe if you were ever a job steward on a construction site and insured that employers actually followed the union contract and your union brothers and sisters didn't get f... over, maybe if you ever went on strike and ended up getting at least part of your demands met, you would know the power of organizing. But of course you never did, did you? In this case you are the one that never played the game!!! My first paragraph is absolutely accurate

Careful they are going to call you a Marxist who hates the game even if you played it.

Nope, you are wrong, even on the union stuff. Many of my family and my wife's family are and have been in unions. You've heard of Butte, right. My wife has been the MEA rep at her school for years, and obviously in the union. Played the game to run circles around you.

How did your union buddies do in the recent MT elections?

Whoa. Really?! Lawyers don't leave firms for better opportunities? Or start their own firms for better opportunities? Or change locations to practice law somewhere else with more opportunities? That doesn't seem right to me in my experience. At least not for the lawyers I know. But I suppose I'll have to take your word for it. :?
