I also don't buy all the hooey in his post stating that he didn't put himself above the game or the kids involved - that's crap. All he had to do was let the KHSAA (or whatever it is) know that he felt it was wrong to take him off the game, and then follow logical legal recourses AFTER the game was played...

And all this talk about "manhood" is ridiculous...sounds like the 12 and 13 year-olds I have to deal with in class - "He dissed me, so I had to do something".
Rocky,
I don't disagree with what you say. I wasn't there, so I don't know what happened. But sometimes they are situations in life where your manhood is at stake. Personally, if it was me, and Mr. Bailey did what Mr. Montgomery said he did, it would have got physical in the locker room, and I would have had to deal with the repercussions that followed.
