Two things here:

1) amberT/dan111--as with Tom when he was still alive (rest his soul), being a HS football coach in this area brings your name into many conversations that your friends/family may not like, and could take offense to. That being said--you folks need to learn that there are some people out there who will say some out-of-the-way things about Travis, as they likely did with Tom. Not everyone of these comments are meant personally nor would they be uttered in that person's presence...most of the time, it's people talking noise...and on here, it's a place to anonymously post their opinions. Those opinions are welcome here, whether they're right, wrong, insensitive, affirmative, or otherwise. Take the good with the bad. There will always be haters, and the best thing to do is to shrug them off and go on.

For a while now concerning this subject of Travis and his tenure at Union, there's been PM's written back and forth between some posters (some threatening), that have been less than classy...since that's the active word. This is a local sports forum. Travis is a local sports personality due to being the head coach at Union. His skills will be discussed in both positive and negative lights. May as well get used to it.

2) The idiot who said what he did about Tom will be dealt with. Stuff like that cannot and will not be acceptable around here.
