My High School football Coach has died

<http://www.ktiv.com/NewsDetail47.cfm?Id=26,6846>

Coach Walt Fiegel of Sioux City East High School was a legend in Iowa prep sports. He is what every high school student needs. He taught a little bit of football and a whole lot about life. He taught self-worth and honoring your parents. He said "Never forget where you come from". I will never forget that I came from Sioux City East High School and I will never forget Walt Fiegel. The world has lost a great, great man. The children of Sioux City have lost a great role model. Long live his memory.

RIP Coach ... we will never forget you.

3. So be it

I paid my contribution. I could care less. I read crap in here all the time and this is one of my few posts. This guy was a legend, I love him like a father, and it is big news where I come from.

4. You read CRAP?

Sorry to hear about your coach but you can skip over the Crappy Threads and read the other threads that aren't Crappy.

5. I scanned all the headlines ...

and this is the first one I read. We need stories like this. And we need more role models like Coach Fiegel.

First one I clicked on this time around.

I am sure that he left wonderful memories with those who knew him. Rest in peace, coach.

8. I am a football coach

Teamwork and the Democratic Party go hand in hand our own worst enemy ladies and gentlemen is ourselves, so lets do what is RIGHT! UNITE! and FIGHT tyranny in this country. Whoever makes it out of the primariaries is my vote...just like the oklahoma drill folks we have to beat on each other to find our toughest. When we DO watch out GOP because we have had you circled a long damn time now. Time for some Payback.

9. Moving to Lounge

Rather than lock for incorrect headline, I'll move this. (It's not eligible for General Discussion since it's not 'political.') My sympathies for your loss. I can appreciate how you must feel.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation,
