I'll throw in my $.02 on the firing of the two head coaches for HS hoops in Anaconda. I know nothing about the back story of this subject or really the story itself. I just have some thoughts on the viral reaction to the Anaconda School Board decision to go against the school's administration, which was to rehire both of these coaches.
This situation is simple. If the locals disagree with their Board Members, you vote them out of office. The Board did what they did, and they apparently have the authority/power to do it. If the people want to they can vote those people off of the Board.
I also listened to some of the media make a big deal that one of the coaches had a locally famous last name -- Estes. And because of his name, they proposed that it was even more egregious that he would be fired. Small town and small minded thinking. Either he can coach, or not. I could care less about what a relative of yours did 50 years ago.
So there you go, that's my take, it's worth what you paid for it.
