Right after we posted the rumor that with the ascendancy of sister Sylvia to the ranks of the board of trustees of the Brownsville Independent School District Faulk Middle School coach (and former city commissioner) Charlie Atkinson's fortunes had risen as well, he came out of hiding and laid the rumors to rest.
In a Facebook post, he lauded current Athletic Director Tom Chavez and said that he'd dearly love the job, but that he would be content to work alongside of the Living Legend at Rivera and be part of Team Chavez and gain experience.
"My AC and I would love to work under him and learn from him as his freshmen coaches. We are hungry coaches wanting to make a difference," Chuck wrote.
Now, coming from a board member's brother, Chavez might well want to consider the political benefits accruing from establishing a relationship with young Mr. Charlie. Now , we remember that the Faulk Middle School team went undefeated in the 2016 season, so there's some material to work with there.
We are not accustomed to see a fawning Charlie, but after all, he did convince some folks to vote for him and elect him commissioner. If anything, it proves that there are some folks with ambition over at Faulk Middle School.

Shut up charlie. Wins and losses don't matter. What percentage of your players will actually graduate high school? How about attend college? That's what really matters. Undefeated seasons in junior high are a dime a dozen. See how many of those kids even play in high school. I'll tell you what once they start having sex drinking beer cutting class and smoking weed, not very many of them! Faulk is zoned yo lorter.porter coaches are lucky to have 60 kids even try out for the team. Get real charlie.
Oh no! "Choo Choo Cuckoo" Atkinson still thinks his opinion matters. Dude get on Viagra and stop confusing your sex life and job. You and your sister are worthless.
Yep he's in dream land school should be about academics first and sports second that's what the great coaches teach!!
Montoya, I have no asperation of being an AC or an AD, period!!! Get off of that. And the employee you talked about that I got the job over was a former employee of the district who got in trouble for showing girls porongrahic material at school. He files a race discrimination without first investigating his claim. He is African American who didn't know Faulk had just hired an African American that same year. John Shergold dropped the ball on that case or plain just wanted to milk money of his client.
You are probably a freaking band student lover.
Gretchen,stop trying to make Charlie happen! It's never gonna happen!
Charlie has a big heart, and a big belly. Keep up the great work Fatkinson! Haters are going to hate!
Coach,
Why give this any importance. I do like that you come out and tell it as it is. But these haters are wrong about you. They don't know what you do. But i did pick up from Montoyas last post thst you are one of few ambitious coaches that are willing to climb the ranks with work and with results. Stupid pistolas says district titles come a dime a dozen, how more incorrect can this fool be. The last district Champions from Faulk some Years back (1997/98), all went to play high school at Porter, all graduated, some went milItaly [Chapa, Vasquez, Chango Avila, ect) some straight to college (Benard, Villarreal, Burgete, Billy, Espinoza, Portero Emanuel, ect) some are RNs, some are rangers, some are coaches, some welders, but some are making $200,000 (san Antonio) some running own multimillion companies. They are very succesful. Ask them and they will tell you that their success began that 9 0 and 1 season. Hope these 10 and 0 boys top the others and shut these negative thinkers up. Some said that Faulk kids go missing from the football ranks to smoking pot, drinking, sex etc. No sir most of them do not play due to having to WORK and help family out. Those sacrafice their childhood dreams to bring a few more dollars to the home income. I hear from kids from other schools where the more elite attend school and the drugs are more potent, cocaine, uppers, downers, ex, crack, all due to the allowances that mommy and daddy GIVE them. Don't hate hard work, these kids worked hard for this championship, the coaches worked hard to mske it happen. Please stop all the hate and bad mouthing, even Montoya just accepted that if Charlie wants to put in the work, he should be allowed to do so.
Charlie, follow the kids to Porter and keep that group together. 10 and 0 season at Porter has hit a wall since 98/99. Go get one there and shut more faces up. Good luck! !
Hahaha $200,000. Hahaha multimillion companies. Hahaha. Ya'll must live in the same la la laND as Atkinson!!!!!!
Yes charlie you got the job over a certified coach should was improperly accused of something. You're right he didn't know faulk. Did you? By the way congrats I see you finally passed your test. Tell us that coach was terminated as you say, but amuse us, tell us again why you left US Customs? Was it by choice? Or were you fired too? That's right so Sherrod didn't put charges on you for being fired by a federal agency. Not many people get fired by customs or leave a $100,000 a year job to go lead 13 year Olds to perfect records and guide them to be successful men. Why did you leVe custims again?
Yes stupid f. 200,000 grand job and one does run a multimillion company. His initials are R.M. and owns part of the company. Has cranes and other machinery that are worth millions. He has 50 plus men working crews. The other guys owns corvette, BMW, and Mercedes cars and is an engineer at San Antonio. One of the Running backs owns a huge horse ranch and earns 100 plus welding.
Facts hater these are Facts. Faulk ex students are very succesful. Don't hate the player.
Horse ranch? Corvette? Mercedes? Welding, right, welding tunnels for Chapo, maybe.
Si es cierto lo corrieron del puente. Overqualified. Es que los de customs tienen puro GED por eso corrieron a charlie he was too good for them. Hahahaha.
So you people voted in that "carpet muncher" in Atkinson! So don't be surprised when the Feds come in and start arresting people. But to you crooks who intend to make a lot of money from Atkinson being on board! She plays along but then turns "rat" like she id in Socorro ISD. That's the only reason she is walking scott free. I don't understand you people in BISD? YOu all know that she is a crook and turncoat but you vote her onto the board?
Atkinsons are all about Atkinsons and don't care who they step over.
The whole family except for Sandra are not worth the notariarity.
Mr. Atkinson, you should be ashamed. You are, first and foremost, a BISD employee that's supposed to be there for our students. To say someone is a "freaking band student lover" is saying your athletes are better than non-athletes. Educators of all people should know the importance of treating every child with dignity and respect and help them achieve their full potential, whether it be as an athlete or a "freaking band student". You can bet this is going straight to any and all of your supervisors but, with Sylvia in charge covering your ass, I can see how you feel protected when running your mouth now. It's truly a shame.
