" YES I AM SERIOUS!!!! DID YOU CATCH THE GAME AGAIN LAST NIGHT?!?! LET THE GOOD PLAYER'S PLAY YOU SAID?!? WELL... THE "GOOD" PLAYERS LOST "AGAIN". HUH, WHATS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE??? THE "GOOD" PLAYERS ARE DOWN THE PATH "AGAIN" TO ANOTHER LOSING SEASON. MAYBE IT'S TIME TO MAKE A FEW CHANGES.IM NOT SAYING THAT IT'S ALL THE PLAYERS FAULT AND IM NOT SAYING IT'S ALL THE COACHES FAULT, BUT THE PLAYERS AND THE COACHES HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER OR THE TEAM WILL KEEP ON LOSING.YOU CANNOT HONESTLY SAY THAT TOMAH BOYS BASKETBALL HAS BEEN DOING OKAY THE PAST FEW YEARS, LIKE I HAVE SAID BEFORE SOMETHING HAS GOT TO CHANGE!!!

" Are you serious? This isn't fairytale land where everything is equal and no one's feelings get hurt. On varsity, not everyone should be playing and its that simple. The good players play and thats that. If you gave everyone equal minutes you wouldn't win a single game. What a bunch of whining babies. "

" I agree with upset, get rid of Brieske. I too sit in the stands and watch the games. Let all the kids play from Varsity, Varsity Reserve & JV Brieske, not just your favorites!! All the kids work hard, they deserve to play equal time. Im sure all their parents all paid the same price. "

" I guess you need to re-read my post. Never once did I mention that I was a parent. For your info. I'm NOT a parent. I have been going to the games for along time. I never said anything about his playing ability. But yes, a person does acquire experience that way. But just because you played the game doesn't mean that you can coach the game! I'm sure he was a great player, he just can't coach! As for the respect of the players to the coach, look at the players the next time "YOU" attend the game! Tomah has a lot of good players with potential, what I'm saying is let those kids play also, just not the kids that their parents are well known in Tomah. Tomah is growing. People that move here bring children. These kids are, believe it or not, are good at sport's also. They should be given the chance to play more then keeping the bench warm. As for the wish part, I never wished for anything. Just for people to wake up and open your eyes. And also, for your info. I am well known in Tomah, there were new kids last year and the years before that that entered high school that I felt should have played more then they did. These kids were good, skilled and wanted to play. Maybe if the coach would have put them in more then a few minutes a game, maybe they would have won more games. And as I sit in the stands now, it's the same old thing. "

" If I do recall, now coach brieske was a starter on the last state basketball team for tomah, he played all through grade school on up. So the experiecnce part of your story is just stupid, you have to look and think before you talk. Now if the kids don't respect him as a coach let them bring it up, not the parents to the kids on the bench. "

" This is a mistake by someone who is in charge of thousands of kids. There are mistakes of writing a check that bounces. It goes to credibility and the safety of our students from people employed by our school district. There are a lot of people who would not commit this so called mistake and are qualified to do the AD job just as well or better "

" ALONG WITH THE NEW NAME FOR THE TOMAH HIGHSCHOOL THE DISTRICT NEEDS TO GET A NEW BASKETBALL COACHING STAFF. I DONT LIKE TO NAME NAME'S BUT I THINK (KNOW)THAT COACH BRIESKE NEEDS TO GO!!! THE KIDS HAVE NO RESPECT FOR HIM AND HONESTLY THE TEAM IS ON ANOTHER LOSING STREAK LIKE LAST YEAR NOT TO MENTION THE PRIOR THREE YEARS ALSO. ITS TIME FOR THE KIDS TO GET A COACH WITH EXPERIENCE IN BASKETBALL AND GET THE SPORT BACK THAT THE KIDS DO ENJOY AND LOVE TO PLAY! COME ON BRIESKE, WAKE UP, YOUR NOT RIGHT FOR THIS JOB. ASK YOUR OWN PLAYER'S!! "

" Wonderful, the Tomah High School has a new logo, THE TIMBERWOLVES!! Now what needs to happen is the school district needs to take a look at the boy's sport's coaches! I say either get rid of the coaches or teach them about the simple word "FAIRNESS"!!!!! Hopefully someone from the school district or the sport's director at the high school will see this and take action for once!! "
