Such a dumbass tournament. ISU went 2-0 and will play for 5th place. St. John's hit a meaningless layup at the buzzer which knocked ISU down to the 5th place game. On the bright side for them, they get $1 million for their NIL just for playing in the tournament. 1st place gets another million...

Gay, retarded, and chicks. Pissing off the PC crowd with the trifecta. :D

He lost me when he said that our lines aren't as good as in the past. Wow.

That is messed up. 3 of our kids are really young for their grade. One will graduate when she's 17. I can't imagine holding them back a year for that reason. I really don't think it makes a different because they're still going to have to play JH, JV, V and will need the skill development...

Yes it is. Basically, in the cities/suburbs, coaches start assembling kids when they're young and inviting them to play as a group all the way through. They all end up at the same HS. I know a school that got in 3 pitchers in 2 years and won state with them. Their #2 went to pitch in the Big Ten.

My opinion is that a school's enrollment should count the non free/reduced kids or a fraction of the free/reduced count. As you mentioned before, 40% is a joke. Don't get me started on pitch counts. I long for the days when I could have a roster in the low 20's and still play 40 games. With a...

The BEDS used to be even worse when the special ed kids didn't count as a full student because of the AEA services they received. When the count was taken for BEDS, if a special ed referral had been written but not resolved, that student didn't count as a full student either. There is a program...

Absolutely. It's never going to happen with those in charge, so I'll take anything at this point.

I can only imagine what their call-in show sounded like.

2 or 3 years ago (can't remember which), 31 of the 32 teams in the state baseball tournament were in the top half of the free/reduced in the state. It's more than just privates/public, it's about SES. The system needs to be overhauled. Of course, which schools are going to buy more...

I don't blame them either. The difference is that they don't have the low SES kids, which eliminates 42% (state average) of what a public school would have. 24% of low SES kids participate in athletics and 32% of those participate in more than 1 sport. If 2 schools have 150 kids 9-11, privates...

Correct. I got my games combined. Fixed it.

I think CEO is the best way to describe his current roll. I read that he's been spending more time with the offensive line than the past several years, which I'm sure he's enjoying.

I was thinking of which realistic game our fans would travel to and I thought that Vegas on NY Eve would be a pretty fun on to go to. The game...meh
