Welcome to NH Coach Metzler! Now maybe its time you waddled back to Massachusetts.<\/p>\n

Obviously in over his shaved head, Coach Metzler has both of them in the proverbial wringer this month.<\/p>\n

First he thought he could create an \u201cnew\u201d NH Right to Know Law that exempted anything he didn\u2019t want the public or even elected officials in the Timberlane Cooperative School District to see. Coach Metzler denied a school board member copies of budget material. If anything is NOT exempt from ANYONE under the RTK it is budget information \u2013 in any form. Sure he had help from a superior court judge appointed by Maggie Hassan \u2013 at first. But at the Supreme Court things went a little sad for the coach – not that his school attorney didn\u2019t try extra hard to win the case by waving his hands wildly about. The jury is still out on that decision but the NH Supra has to take the Constitutional Right to public documents more seriously than some recent judicial\/political appointment. I hope the decision comes out sooner than later.<\/p>\n

Next up to bat is Coach Metzler\u2019s effort to silence long time member of the Hampstead Budget Committee, Jorge Mesa-Tejada, for having the temerity to offer an alternative to Coach Metzler\u2019s $4.5 million building bond. Coach Metzler never loses a game so he needs Jorge benched during the bond debate.<\/p>\n

Here is how Coach Metzler intends to keep Jorge out of the debate – accuse him of \u201cblatant display of disregard for our children and their safety.\u201d Coach Metzler has started this process in a press release that cuts and pastes some of the facts into this Coach Metzler fantasy:
\nhttps:\/\/sites.google.com\/a\/hampsteadschools.net\/hsd\/hsd-announcements\/untitledpost<\/a><\/p>\n

Coach Metzler also had his lackey, Jason Cipriano, who is a member of the school board, sign on to this misleading and libelous press release as well. Bullies love having lackeys.<\/p>\n

Metzler has to hope the general public doesn\u2019t find out what really happened at this notorious budget committee meeting where Jorge Mesa-Tejada was falsely accused of disregarding the safety of students. If that happens just as he loses his attempt to hide budget materials it might jeopardize Coach Metzler\u2019s $4.5 million dollar prize building bond. The public already understands that student enrollment is way down and the bond is just a feather in Coach Metzler\u2019s baseball cap.<\/p>\n

Some questions taxpayers need to ask about this mess Coach Metzler has started:<\/p>\n

1. What kind of law firm gives Metzler advice that says public documents are not public documents \u2013 oops, the NH Supreme Court is asking that one too.
\n2. Where is all the money coming from for TV commercials promoting a bond?
\n3. Is withdrawing from SAU #55 the only way for some districts to get rid of Coach Metzler?
\n4. If Coach Metzler wants to rally a \u201cteam\u201d why not go back to baseball in Massachusetts and leave running an SAU to qualified people?
\n5. Since Coach Metzler had committed this type of low life personal attack against several people, while posing as a school employee, how long will it be before he gets sued personally \u2013 or grows up?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
