What a bunch of crybabies. The whole team suffers and will forfeit the game??
Shows everyone you who runs that team, sure isn't the coach.
Take your suspension like a man.
This coach is spineless and as far as Nick O goes "learn some sportsmanship"!!!!!
There will be plenty of bad calls in life, suck it up.
Now there is not only a bad call but bad bad publicity for yourself, family,school,Palm Beach County,The State of Florida.
Oh your Jacks grandson, you'll get a pass.

O`Leary, poor little boy needs to grow up. He should keep it to himself and move on. I wonder how many mistakes he has made in his little world. Officials do make bad calls at times. Accept it. The FHSAA did the correct thing and the coach should be reprimanded too. His bad example is not good for the kids he is trying to set an example for. Suck it up coach and move on. Its only a game.

JMG commented on September 9, 2010 at 12:24 a.m.: report abuse

I normally just ignore bitter and ignorant comments on subjects like this, but your lack of knowledge or understanding for the subject at hand is humorous. The team is standing behind Nick because what happened in Ohio was horrendous no matter what team you were rooting for. Let me ask you something: would you want to win a nationally televised game where everyone blatantly saw that Dwyer scored multiple times? They know they lost - heck, the world knows they lost. It's an embarrassment to Ohio. You clearly have a lack of experience in what a team actually is or how one is supposed to operate. The reason this team wins games is because they stand together: the coaches, the players, the parents. Jack Daniels is an incredible coach from no matter if you look at this past season or the past ten. He rarely, if ever, allows things like this happen and as history proves, he's a fair guy with a no B.S. policy. If this is the decision that was made, then you bet your "billybob" butt that there was some thought that went into that and it wasn't only Jack Daniels making the executive decision. As for Mr. Nick O'Leary, he's one of the greatest high school athletes in the country. He's played his ace off in every game since day one. You mean to tell me that you wouldn't have reacted after that many admittedly bad calls? You ask any reputable analyst, sports fan, or athlete if the situation was right and the answer will be no. I'd hardly call it "bad publicity" for anyone, but the officials. Yes, Nick lost his cool and it happened to be on ESPN, but put yourself in his shoes as a high school athlete working as hard as he does or any kid does to have lost like that. Nick's relatives have nothing to do with the matter, so I don't see how that is relevant to your argument at all - his grandfather didn't make him a ball player...kid did that himself and could've easily done it without the reputation. That's pure talent and you can't argue that. Sorry boutcha.

I don't think Nick's grandfather's golf stats got him his football stats. Clearly, being Jack's grandson didn't earn him a pass since he was suspended for two games. Nick is lucky to belong to a true team that stands behind him; I'd like to know how many other players were suspended two games by the FHSAA for making such a gesture after a game like that. Thank you, Florida, for standing behind your own team that played in a national scandal of a game.

The FHSAA should be ashamed of itself for suspending Nick. His reaction was restrained and understandable. The refs stole the game not once, twice, but three times from these hardworking kids. I applaud Coach Daniels for supporting Nick and the team. May the FHSAA come to its senses and undo the suspension!!!!

Hey BillyBob, sounds like if you were put in Nick's shoes, you would have reacted with your fists and definitely your mouth! Don't think you would have had as much restraint as Nick did to give the finger only once. Why are you pursecuting Nick for the decision to forfeit, it's Coach Daniels' decision, not Nick's. I'm sure he wouldn't want to hold the team back, but a good Coach, and Jack Daniels is a good Coach, stands up for his players and for what is right. He's right when he said that "There are no repercussions for the adults who made the calls on the field, but there is for an 18-year-old kid who reacted in the heat of the moment." What is wrong with this world?

Rational Thinking commented on September 9, 2010 at 3:31 a.m.: report abuse

I'd bet at least four figures that come morning, the Dwyer AD has a little talk with Jack Daniels and says thanks for the support, but we're not forfeiting. What happened to the team is absurdly unfair and there's no reason for the FHSAA to hand down a suspension like this. Dwyer reportedly handled it internally and if there's any penalty from the FHSAA, it should fall on Daniels, not O'Leary.
But there's also no reason to penalize the rest of the team by not playing two games. What's that going to help? Certainly it won't help impress any college scouts for kids like Maggitt and Brissett. It's certainly not going to help Dwyer in a chase for a repeat title.
Like Rick L said, the time to fight this is later, and at an administrative level.
Hopefully the FHSAA will realize what a storm they've created with this and come to their senses.
The problem is the FHSAA is like almost every other state HS association in the country, run by largely arrogant blowhards who feel the need to put their stamp on anything in the public eye.

Anyone with an IQ over Fitty knows the "Ref's" blew both calls. Remember people High-school;however, with that being said, Since it was on ESPN there should have been instant "replay." That's A. B. no matter what the player was Wrong for the obscene gesture. The Coach needs to "STEP-UP" in LIFE we don't always GET OUR WAY, and WHEN WE DON'T WE DEAL WITH IT "get IT."

While the gesture was certainly out of line and punishment to Nick O'Leary should be taken, to have the kid sit out 2 games is ridiculous. There was taunting going on from both sides from the start of this game, should #1 from Glenville be suspended for a the gator chomp move he made after a good tackle. Maybe the kids will be miked for every play to make sure there isn't any trash talking going on, during this game there was more unsportsmanlike action going on than Nick's victory salute after being robbed three times. Dwyer got hosed and thats all there is to it, as a former High School official in New England, I got sick watching this team of officials, they were very inconsistent on both sides. I commend coach Jack Daniels and I am sure the entire Dwyer team for taking this stand. These are High School kids, yes they too make mistakes, and the FHSAA like the NCAA makes decisions without thought or care.

I love sports at every level, but I am sick and tired of hearing about "heat of the moment" and "he's an emotional player" and "he's just reacting to getting screwed."
Get a grip. What happens to people in the work place if "in the heat of the moment" you get angry and give your boss the finger. See ya ! or if this player is "in the heat of the moment" with your teenage daughter who is trying to tell him no. or "in the heat of the moment" while he is kicking the crap out of some kid because he didn't get his way. There are consequences for every action. he is not a child he is 118 and old enough to serve in the military.
Yes they got screwed. Yes I would be angry off too. But why is the coach penalizing his team for the actions of one player. What about his senior players who lose 2 games in their final season of eligibility. or the rest of the team who won't make the playoofs because of the 2 losses.
and where is the school administration? Does the football program run the school?
What is the lesson being taught? Make your on rules. When things don't go your way, pout. Show your butt when you are unhappy.
The FHAA is very consistant on this policy. When my son gave an opposing player the finger in a soccer game in 2001 he was given a 4 game suspension by the FHAA. We didn.t like it, but it was what it was. These are games people. Games.

Because some kid gives the finger in the heat of the moment of losing a very contested game he gets suspended for two games, come on. When are we going to start imposing the same for Professionals for doing alot worse. If you want theses kids to mentor the pros have the same respect and such do the same to them. They are on National TV as well. I have seen many F bombs launch during a heated game as this. How many times have you seen Tiger do the same live on TV and they dont even catch it, but replay it over and over on Sportscenter. This is part of competitive sports it has happened before and will happen every game no matter. The finger was probably the cleanest thing said during the heat of the moment. The TEAM played their tails off to be let down by a few bad calls. Dont let this spoil your season because a few people in the athletic assoc believe they are doing something right. Stand together as a team. Learn from it and Drive on with a winning attitude. I have lived in Palm Beach Gardens for 41 of my 42 years and support all local teams no matter what.

What happened to sportsmanship? Shouldn't this coach be teaching these young man how to act proudly and honorably? Really, this is HIGH SCHOOL. Although the circumstances were emotionally charged, it's about time these young men started to conduct themselves with dignity. I am very disappointed that this coach is not teaching the rest of the team that emotionally charged outbursts have consequences and if you choose to act in a certain way, the outcome is not positive. I would not let my son play for this coach and I'm shocked by all of the people that think it's okay for a high school football player to act out in such an unsportsmanlike manner.

What? commented on September 9, 2010 at 8:15 a.m.: report abuse

Its easy for people to sit in judgment when bad things dont happen to them, but to others. O'Leary is still in high school after all and we are telling him to act like a man? He is still a kid, and he should not get criticised because in the heat of the moment after his team had the game stolen from them and his team was being taunted by some thugs from Glenville he flips them the bird. Its not like he went off and hit someone. That would have been unacceptable. I support the coaches decision to forfeit the games, it shows team unity. I'm not sure how the law reads but the game was played in Ohio outside of the jurisdiction of Florida regulatory bodies therefore, the FHSAA should have no say in the matter. O'Leary just so happened to flick someone off on the othere side of the field and it was caught on camera, which pales in comparison to some of the stuff those boys are saying to each other on the field.

Coach Daniels, maybe you should do some coaching instead of your usual chest pumping antics. Take it like a man, your player reacted to a terrible call, the team was penalized unjustly, but his reaction was uncalled for. Teach these young men to rise above bad situations, and move on.
The entire Dwyer team feels this entitlement as well, and it is wrong.Own up to your mistakes, Have seen this for many years with this coaching staff, and now since a celeb is in the mist, it has gotten much worse.

I agree with and Support Dwyer Coach Jack Daniels 100%. It takes guts to stick behind your players and stand up to the idiots at FHSAA. I do not condone O'Leary's actions but given the circumstances 90% of all competitive young immature athletes would have reacted in a similar manner after busting their butts all summer and playing 140 plays only to get cheated by a bunch of HOMERS that can't stand the fact that Ohio teams can't compete with Florida teams at any level. Kirk Herbstreit, Drew Russell from Intersports and FHSAA should be supporting Dwyer in this matter and calling for an investigation for the blatent cheating that occured Monday instead of penalizing Dwyer. What the refs did Monday was bad, what the FHSAA did Wednesday is worse.

It amazes me that so many expect so little from a "kid" playing a game while others his age are expected to fight in wars and otherwise not act like children. While an incredibly unfair situation his teammates were able to handle it without acting in such a classless manner. He did what he did and the excuses are pathetic. It isn't acceptable under the rules of sportsmanship. Nowhere does it say "we expect the athletes to exhibit proper behavior except in emotionally charged situations." If you can't handle these types of situations then maybe you need to mature before you step on the field again. It is in these type of situations that our true character shows. It is easy to be a good sport when things go right.

All of you people attacking this 17 or 18 year old kid from the safety of your key boards don`t now or never did have the strength of character or athletic ability Nick O'Leary has. He, like the entire Dwyer team traveled to Ohio, played their hearts out, were cheated and then taunted. What he did was wrong but understandable and not criminal. In my opinion they are lucky they didn`t get 45 birds. I saw the "little spoiled rich kid" put his shoulder down and drive 3 underprivileged kids 5 yards for a first down in the first quarter, make a one on one tackle on defence "strength of character" catch the ball in crucial situations and make something happen "athletic ability" raise his arms in celebration when a teammate scored the first of 3 game winning touchdowns that were not touchdowns? Then respond to taunting with a gesture that was unfortunate but at 18 or 48 understandable. I would say the same thing if it was Dwyers nose tackle, and he aint rich, but in about 6 or 7 years he will be.

Before you trash "the coach" Jack Daniels you need to know he is one of the classiest people I have ever met. He is a true gentlemen. The coach isnt responsible for O'learys actions and had no way to prevent what Nick did. After multiple horrible calls that cost his players the game, Jack wasnt going to make it worse and give Nick a suspension on top of what happened. FHSAA did enough punishment. If Dwyer had won that game on paper I would imagine Nick would have been suspended the next game. Dwyer / Jack knows Nick was wrong for what he did. Sometimes though when a large political party like FHSAA is taking advantage of their power the smaller guys need to make a bold move to challenge them. What Dwyer is doing to stand up to the FHSAA is brave and courageous. If you feel differently move to France. The players are in full support of this move.

Had this happened on the way to the team bus I would agree with the suspension, but in the heat of the moment immediately after the refs had just 'given' the game to their hometown boys, and taunting from the other team, I believe a reprimand is the correct action. It must be tough to be a Glenville player or coach right now knowing that you only won because of biased refs. The truth is Dwyer won and everyone knows it. Was the any recourse for the Glenville team for unsporting taunting? NAW - DIDN'T THINK SO..I agree with the coach for forfeiting games rather than play without the unfairly suspended player. It shows team unity and makes a statement against the spineless FHSAA. How embarrassing for them that the regions best team is not playing games, the whole season is now tainted because of the actions of the FHSAA...

If you have ever been a competitive athlete you know exactly what I am talking about. This happens all the time.

Anne Morgan, M.D commented on September 9, 2010 at 9:31 a.m.: report abuse

As a mother of a senior player on Dwyer's team , I would like to offer my commentary :
I have known Nick O'Leary since he and my son played the perfect season at Benjamin in eighth grade. He also was on the winning State Championship Lacrosse team at Dwyer . He is multi-talented.
He has not been a "spoiled" kid. He has wonderful parents who have taught him good sportsmanship & manners. He has always been polite in my presence. His grandparents sit in the stands and acts as proud as all of the other grandparents and parents.
Anyone of you who feel that you have a "right" to comment on his family are totally out of line. What gives you the right? You don't.
As we all saw... Nick Played his heart out at the game, not only as tight end, tailback, punt returner, and more.
I do not condone his actions after the game, while I certainly do understand them.
Haven't anyone of YOU ever done anything in a reactive manner to some "injustice" albeit real or imagined that you felt was perpetrated on you? As we saw , this was not "imagined". Neither the FHSAA or Coach Daniels should make "knee-jerk" responses to what transpired. Hopefully, cool & mature heads will prevail and Nick should receive a rebuke or at max a one game suspension, while Coach Daniels should allow the games against Palm Beach Gardens& Pahokee to go on as scheduled. By doing so, he will responsibly portray the fine coach that he is & is there to lead ALL of the players and to show that he cares for them as well, which he does.
I, as a parent will urge you to write a letter of protest to the FHSAA for their actions as well as a note to Coach Daniels as he is a reasonable man with a great deal of integrity. ( Remember when J. Johnson quit the Dolphins in frustration after his mother died? He & Huisenga met and he was back a few days later.) This CAN BE resolved to everyone's satisfaction. What it will teach my son and the other players is that conflict resolution is the answer to many things.
Thank you.

@ BRETT....you need to come down off your high horse and have a clue about the real situation. Let me start by saying I have 2 children in the Armed Services and I can guarantee that they have both flipped that finger at more than one individual...so fighting wars and the action of Nick have nothing in common. Second, how do you know that the rest of the teammates weren't responding to the taunting, derogatory, unsportsmanlike, and showboating actions of the Glenville team? YOU DON'T KNOW JACK! (as in s**t or Daniels!) ... because the camera is too focused on Nick because of his grandfather! Had the media not thought that each moment had to be a reminder of his birth, you wouldn't have seen the gesture.
Third, the punishment should fit the crime...he's being assessed punishment as though this was a level 1 offense - physical altercation! So tell me how that is fair? Other than the FHSAA trying to make a point that we take the higher moral ground...I am NOT saying that he was right, but saying that at that moment, it was understandable. Leave the punishment to the school / coach to handle.

To Palm Beach Dwyer --- Waaaaah!!! Waaaaahhh!!! WAAAAAHHH!!!!
Next time, don't blow a 16-point second-half lead and you won't have to worry about being gypped by the referees at the end.
The fact that the FHSAA had to step in to suspend O'Leary instead of Coach Daniels or the principal of the school administering the punishment themselves shows that Palm Beach Dwyer is only concerned with athletic glory and not academics. They should be ashamed of themselves and tender their immediate resignations.
O'Leary should have been dismissed from the team, suspended from school, and perhaps even expelled.
This is the University of Miami mentality at its finest. You cannot spell "scum" without "UM". I'm sure Nick O'Leary will fit in just fine with the rest of the lawless thugs in Coral Gables.

O.k I have watch the replay of the calls in doubt, yes the fade pass in the endzone was a touchdown when you slow it up via replay, but remember in game speed it dosen't look like a touchdown from the refs angle and from the angle I witness as I watch. Now the touchdown from the goaline was clearly not a touchdown his forward progress was stop plain and simple and if the time clock would have started that would have been the last play of the game. Finally the last play of the game imho was a makeup call from the previous play because that QB broke the plain of the endzone, but the question that is now being rised is he lost the ball, which is questionable at best. We all must remember there's no replay in High School football. Now should the kid be suspended, I feel yes regardless of the outcome you show sportsmanship and we must admit both teams were talking smack back and forth, it just intensified due to the outcome of the game, but the kid should know right from wrong and his actions showed clearly. I would say 2 games is over doing it but 1 would be fine.

Simple cause and effect: Cleveland cheats (not surprissing) not once or twice, and players react. Don't punish the cheaters just punish those who object to the cheaters. Makes sense a lot of sense.

Pahokee Footbal Mom commented on September 9, 2010 at 9:56 a.m.: report abuse

Personally I don't know Nick but I'm sure he's a wonderful, talented player however, he made a bad decision while upset and none of us are virgins to that. Since he made the gesture on TV, I think they should have made him apologize on TV but still allowed him to play. I think this is double punishment. Yes he need to be responsible for his actions because you don't want the other players to think this type of behavior is ok. As for forfeiting the two games he can't play, I don't think it's fair to the team. Scouts are watching more players than just Nick and personally I don't want to miss a game and you guys play us for one of his suspensions. I heard about what happened in Ohio, but I agree with something I heard earlier, Dwyer, you know you won heck the world know you won so let's get past this and move on to a bigger and better season with better decisions. FHSAA probably felt like you didn't really punish him and from the decision you made to forfeit games because of one player (Nick) probably mkase them further feel that he didn't get punished because he's the star of the team.IJS

Tough lesson to learn. Youth expect paid, qualified, authority figures to do the right thing. Everyone exspects this but as adults we have experienced (not to this extent ) bad calls.The refs in this game should definitely be held accountable for a job poorly done and at the very least, sumbit a written apology to the team. This should not be regarded as another "Oh well" moment by them as well as the FHSAA.
In edition to the FHSAA being the watch dog of player decorum, as an organization acting in the best interest of all Florida high school sports programs they should show support for a Florida team whenever a blantant injustice occurs that determines the outcome of a game.
If they choose to ignore what happened to Dwyer during that game, it is another major insult to this team , fans and all high school sports programs.
Wake up FHSAA , react and show support for Florida teams that are cheated .

Mark K. Trueblood commented on September 9, 2010 at 10:05 a.m.: report abuse

The FHSAA went a little "overboard" in their decision to make O'Leary's punishment a 2-game suspension. However, had Dwyer disciplined him by rendering a 1-game suspension, it would not only have been appropriate and just, but it most likely would've satisfied the FHSAA. Regardless of the outcome of the game, in which I believe Dwyer was absolutely "robbed", no one should disgrace themselves, their teammates, their family and friends by behaving in a manner that is unsportsmanlike in ANY way. Save the "heat of the moment" pleas for those who have time to absorb such nonsense.

By deciding to have the entire team sit-out the next two games due to O'Leary being suspended for the same number of games is sending the wrong message to him (O'Leary) and the other students. NO ONE player is BIGGER than the team or the game itself. Would an NCAA or NFL team act in the same manner? Not hardly. Jack Daniels is a better man and a better coach than this.

What will sitting out two games for the entire team teach these fine young men about life? Loyalty is admirable, and a valuable asset. But so is humility, responsibility and accountability. When O'Leary gets fired for acting inappropriately while working as an adult in the real world, do you believe his co-workers will quit in support of him in order to defy their employer? Not likely.

I implore him (Daniels), the athletic director, and the parents to reconsider a decision that will haunt this team for the rest of their lives.

If Dwyer is indeed the team they believe themselves to be, and if the principal and the athletic director are the leaders they're supposed to be, they should act in a mature manner and hit the field with the same spirit and fury they're attempting to display with this 2-game "sit-out"!

There is no empathy here.

UNBELIEVABLE

1. A Florida team goes up to Ohio to play the #1 team in the state and #4 in the nation and one of the largest size wise.
2. They both play a hard and exciting high school game on national TV.
3. There is taunting on the field (probably more from the home team--that's football).
4. The Florida team has a great come back in the final 4 minutes.
5. The Florida team has 3 touchdowns in the final 2 minutes not called.
6. There are no fights throughout the whole game.
7. A 18-year-old-kid who plays one of the great high school game on both offence and defence and has just lost a game of his life, flips the taunting team the bird as they go off the field (that's football).
8. The FHSAA from his home state of Florida suspends him for 2 games (that not football).
9. The school, the coach, and players stand by thier team and player (that's football).

What's Really Not Believable is the refs calls and the actions of Florida's FHSAA (thanks for standing up for your Florida teams when they play out of state, that's not football).

It's called SOLIDARITY. This Dwyer team is one with the team and one with the fans and we all stand behind Nick. Exactly how much crap do you expect them to take and not respond? Nick was wrong, but he was caught up in the emotion and responding to the taunts and harrassment from the Glenville players.

If you, Billy Bob, and you Richard, can't understand the concept of solidarity, have someone explain it to you. Other than that, we aren't interested in hearing from you anymore. This isn't your game.

Coach Daniels, please reconsider the forfeitures. Up until now, you've conducted yourself like a true gentleman, leader and role model. Don't punish the entire team, the entire school. You've made your point, now reconsider and let the team play. For many of the players, this is the last season of football they will ever play. Don't cut it short by two games. Also, never mind that the games may not count towards a championship, the team needs to play these games to be better prepared for the following games by playing. You don't want to go into game 4 with the last game played being the Ohio spectacle 4 weeks prior.

Do the right thing, Coach.

How the FHSAA can suspend the kid and not comment on the travesty that was the last three minutes of the game is beyond me. He lost his cool and now you're going to suspend him for two games? What you should be doing is reviewing the tape, confirming the TD and awarding the victory to Dwyer or at least not recognizing the loss. The FHSAA need to grow a pair and stand up for their school.

Bax commented on September 9, 2010 at 10:24 a.m.: report abuse

Quite simply, the FHSAA is completely wrong here.

Was the kid wrong for flipping off the refs? Yes. But damn, did they deserve it. I'm an Ohio State graduate and was rooting for Glenville (we get kids from there all the time) and I'm absolutely disgusted by the officiating in this game.

Not one TD off the board. Not two TDs off the board. THREE TDS off the board in the last minute of the game.

If I were O'Leary, I wouldn't have flipped the refs off. I'd have probably choked one of them on the field Darth Vader style.

Let the kid play. This is a ridiculous situation made worse if he is suspended.

John commented on September 9, 2010 at 10:25 a.m.: report abuse

This is a load of crap. The fact is that the players from both teams were doing MANY unsportsmanlike like things in the minutes after the game. Just because this kid was caught on camera doesn't warrant him being punished. If cameras are allowed to be a factor in this decision, then the cameras should be allowed to determine the real outcome of the game - which anyone knows that saw it would have determined a different winner.

Big E commented on September 9, 2010 at 10:28 a.m.: report abuse

Too bad for Nick who I thought was the best player in the game for both team. I am from Cleveland living in Columbus and was pulling for Glenville. At the end of the game there was no excuse for the actions of both the Ohio officials to screw up the calls which were clearly touchdowns and Nick O'Leary.

If bad call, the other team, or game can get to him now at 17 or 18 what do you think is going to happen to him in college and maybe the pros. You have to control your emotions at least starting now.

Good Luck to Dwyer for the rest of the season but do play your next games. As for the FHSAA they are no different than the OSHAA who always overacts all the time

Nick O'leary should not be suspended. I watched that game and the officials were totally wrong! First of all, the young man who caught the ball on the sideline of the endzone was robbed of his glorious moment. Secondly the QB Sneak was successful and the TD wasn't allowed. On top of all that the clock operator was horrible at the end of the game. Nick's frustration was totally justified. We're lucky that an obscene gesture is all that happened. The refs are the ones that need to be suspended. This young man played an amazing game as did most of his teammates. I was ashamed that this happened in my town. As far as I'm concerned Dwyer won that game.

Mark K. Trueblood commented on September 9, 2010 at 10:59 a.m.: report abuse

"dwyer side" . . . as you requested, I made a phone call to the FHSAA. Their office simply acted upon what is written in their rules. Rules of which I might add are published and should be known to all high school coaches in the state of Florida. In fact, as stated previously by another person who posted on another article concerning this matter, the FHSAA rules call for a suspension up to 1-year for "unsportsmanlike" behavior.

They also rendered this decision after Dwyer failed to render one of their own. And please spare me the "extra" running and drills at practice routine as a punishment for those that believe that would be considered such.

In other words, they (the FHSAA) didn't make up the rule, it was established at a previous date in the books.

Now, I must admit, 2-games is excessive, and 1-year would be absurd. But, they are the governing body for any high school athlete participating on any roster in the state of Florida - regardless of where the contest or event is held.

That said, according to the person I spoke to just 10-12 minutes ago, there is a possibility that Dwyer could get the suspension for O'Leary decreased by one-game provided they file an appeal. After all, it is his first offense and his past record of behavior is as stellar as his talent on the field.

We ALL know that the field officials in Ohio failed to make the right call(s) near the end of the game this past Monday. I do not believe this is an argument there. And although most of us would agree that the FHSAA issued a very harsh penalty for Nick's actions, they acted based on what

He's a passionate kid who made a kid mistake. Whether the suspension is appealed or not, he should serve his punishment accordingly and learn from the experience. He'll be a better man for it, and so will his teammates.

RivieraBeachShark commented on September 9, 2010 at 11:01 a.m.: report abuse

I sent the following to Dr. Peggy Jones, Asst. Executive Director of Athletic Services. According to the FHSAA website, she is responsible for supervising unsportsmanlike conduct of atheletes and coaches. her email is pjones@fhsaa.org. Her phone number is 352-372-9551 x 180. I say we all blow up her email and phone....

Dear Ms. Jones:

I am writing to urge you to reconsider the suspension of Nick O'Leary.

Surely, his gesture was inappropriate and he should be disciplined for his actions. In fact, internally, the coaching staff and administration had taken disciplinary action against Nick.

I just ask that you not compartmentalize your decision and consider all of the adversity he was facing in the heat of that moment:

1. He and his team had just been unjustly robbed of a victory that they fought so hard for. I'm sure you've seen the video footage.

2. He was taunted relentlessly by the Glenville players and fans immediately after the game.

3. The team as a whole, exhibited remarkable restraint under those circumstances. It really could have escalated to a riot situation.

You just had to be there to see it. I ask that you at least do a comprehensive examination of this entire situation so that you can gain a complete understanding of all the factors involved. At the conclusion of your investigation, you could then exact whatever remedies that you deem appropriate. This decision seems premature and done without benefit of all of the fact surrounding the event in question.

I feel that this decision was rushed and in the face of this adversity, the FHSAA should get behind and support the Dywer team and coaches. I also question, whether or not, the FHSAA has jurisdiction as this was not a FHSAA sponsored event....

Please reconsider, please....please... please...

Nobody dirtier or more crooked than Ohio sports referees. They're still p*ssed at the whipping the Gators put on the Buckeyes in 2006. As for the FHSAA, what a joke they are. Not one suspension on the other team for unsportsmanlike conduct? But because a kid threw up a 'bird'?

I guess what the FHSAA wants us all to do is, give us your money, watch our programming, and work hard throughout the year to enrich us, but shut the hell up and take what we give you--and like it.

Some one needs to find the names of those referees. Feels like FIFA all over again. Referee's not being held accountable for their poor, incomprehensible performance. Why aren't they coming out public to defend themselves? Why not? Because everyone knows they are wrong, even coach Ted Ginn, Sr. Isn't he the father of the guy who's own teammates injured him in an unsportsmanlike celebration in the end-zone after returning the kick-off for a TD against The Florida Gators? In there 42-14 loss, that is? Same guy, right?

Hey Mr Ginn? Take your over-rated once again son, Buckeyes, and your stolen win, and...
Always remember--nothing will wash out that taste in your mouth you and your son still have from the old-school beatdown the Gators put on you and your son. You and your team should be proud.

O'Leary, come join the Gators or UM (ugh, that hurt) and take it out on them in college. Either way, you can count on the Buckeyes being over-rated and some Florida school whooping their tail. Sweet revenge is when you are holding the NC trophy and you say that you want to thank the most crooked HS officiating crew in Ohio for the motivation, and the FHSAA for the extra time to plan for the speech--then throw them the double-fisted BIRD with vigor. Touche.

I love people who post on these threads and hide behind an alias. Real tough. Bottom line is no one saw what the other team was doing when nick saluted them. He was being taunted by a team that unfairly won, emotions were high, did you see them? no, because the camera was on the guy who played the whole game, both sides of the ball. He was right to be angry, was it the best move, no, but no one knows what the other side was doing. I would have done the same thing and most everyone else would too. The refs are lucky they got out of there in my opinion, ohio should come out with a statement acknowledging their mistake and apologize. As far as forfeiting the games because FHSAA decided to suspend Nick, if thats what the team wants to do then they should. FHSAA should stay out of it, they say they can't do anything about the outcome of the game, then they should not do anything regarding any portion of the game. They didn't sanction it and have no authority over it. Different story if it was a FHSAA sanctioned and controlled game. Jack Daniels is a good guy. period. No ones crying about what happened, the truth is Dwyer was cheated 3 times, Nick was singled out. Nothing is being done to the ADULTS who made the mistake and nothing is being done to the other team who taunted and provoked nick. Florida has nothing to be ashamed about nor does Jack or anyone else involved with Dwyer, Ohio High school sports, the Refs and Glenville do.

Remember lest yee have forgotten. Only "You" are responsible for your actions and how you react to things.
The ref's gave the game away but Nicks actions and the way he chose to show his character are the only things which will be remembered.
Grow up little Nicky and learn from your spoiled brat attitude. Otherwise life will be more difficult with other situations you find yourself in.

Jim said ,Nick's frustration was totally justified. We're lucky that an obscene gesture is all that happened.
Are you serious.....Justified????... football how bad could it get.....What about respect for the game, what about respect for his family, friends,school,town....Himself.
This just showed what a spoiled brat he really is.
The refs are the ones that need to be suspended. This young man played an amazing game as did most of his teammates.......
He played an amazing game but he threw it all away with his bad attitude.
The ref's are an authority...Yes they made bad calls yes they were cheated a victory. But nonetheless they are an authority.
No wonder we have a bunch of whining babies coming up through sports, we allow them to say or do whatever they want. Im sure the suspension will go away with a few phone calls from a few very influential people. Which will only make Nick look worse than he already does.
Can you imagine in the real world every time someone did not like the outcome of a court battle that the attorney gave the judge the finger. Court system.... football?????

I'm just so upset that FSHAA is instead looking at the whole picture and suspending O'Leary. I agree with Coach Daniels- "There are no repercussions for the adults who made the calls on the field, but there is for an 18-year-old kid who reacted in the heat of the moment."
The only reason FSHAA is doing this because it was on national television - everyone saw and that probably hurts their image. Nick did not know that he was being filmed. Why do they not look at the kids who were making fun of our players? The coaching staff did an amzing job getting the teams into the locker rooms without any punches thrown.
It's Nick's senior year and he gets suspended for flicking someone off, after the game? Coach Daniels had a long talk with him and he regretted his actions. This is really sad for the whole school.

(Tom Pagley director of Althetics at Dwyer) Pagley wrote:

“As an eyewitness to the event, I can tell you that [O'Leary] exhibited restraint beyond his years. What was not captured on the video was the aggressive taunting by a few of the Glenville players during the period just after the final horn. He reacted to this provocation in the heat of the moment in that manner because he knew that physically engaging those players and the student support personnel would be totally unacceptable. The notoriety of [the] gesture on television and the internet is unfortunate.

Conferencing with the student-athlete, I have discovered that he deeply regrets his course of action at that moment and understands that it is not acceptable from, indicative of, a representative of Dwyer, the Palm Beach County School District of the State of Florida.

He also understands that, at times, infringements incur penalties. Coach Jack Daniels has already handed down appropriate punitive measures toward the student-athlete and has counseled him and his teammates regarding this matter. As a group, we are attempting to put the negatives of the “Ohio Experience” behind us, as there are so many positives to recollect.”

Regardless of what happened. A two game suspension is excessive. A written or verbal warning from FHSAA would have been sufficient, however Dwyer had already issued a verbal warning to Nick. Look at the school conduct chart and see what the standard penalty is for making an innapropriate gesture.

Just pointing out that all of you who are claiming that his family relations or money have something to do with his suspension severity are ignorant. Money means sht - it's JUSTICE that should be recognized in this scenario. If you're irritated because you wouldn't be able to "buy" your kid out of this, you've just grouped every person better off than you into the category of a "spoiled brat" because they have financial stability. I guarantee you that Jack Nicklaus, himself, reprimanded his grandson in private and would rather not get involved in all of the nonsense - it's not his style to step in like many of you claim with "a phone call to the right people." I guarantee you that his mom and dad had their own form of holding Nick accountable - and he comes from GREAT parents who probably laid into him just like most good parents would. I guarantee you that Nick also got a talking to from the AD, principal, and Jack Daniels...which is something I wouldn't have wanted to be in the room for. I also guarantee you that he KNOWS what he did was wrong, but does the FHSAA have any grasp of right and wrong? I surely know the game officials do not.

Nick and Coach D are paying the price on a very public and national level for something that should be acute on the radar...flipping a bird? Come on, when I went to Dwyer kids got kicked out of school for making hit lists and bomb threats - a middle finger? Are we serious? I'd like to see anyone deal with the kind of pressure and scrutiny this team is under. Dwyer is Dwyer. Football is more than a game to some of these kids - ultimately, it can be a determinant on if they further their education due to the fact that half the team probably couldn't afford to go - athletics is their way in via scholarship. ANY PLAYER with that kind of talent out of Dwyer would be supported regardless of what his name is. It could've been Maggitt or Jacoby suspended and Dwyer STILL would've had their backs. Again, the media (ESPN) focused on Nick because of his grandfather. Everyone (including the media) needs to back off. Let Nick make his own name without Big Jack. He's very capable and with as good as he is, he could've done it without the association...and so could the team because they're THAT good. FHSAA needs to hear it and retract the suspension. Let the kids play without all of this horsesht.
