A middle school football coach in the Portland, Oregon area said he was willing to lose his job than rather back down from plans for a team party at Hooters has lost his job.

The athletic director for the school district, Jean-Paul Soulagnet, sent a letter this week to parents telling them the end-of-season party at Hooters was no longer a Corbett Middle School event.

KGW reports that the athletic director fired coach Randy Burbach for refusing to choose a more appropriate location for the party.

Burbuch would not bow to pressure to move the party, because he always told his boys to stand up for what they believe in.

What do think of the coach being fired?
