great news today with some more guidelines set forth from IHSAA to IFCA July 6th !! Smart progressive approach

Without a doubt.

Caston to SN is 66 miles. We travel 80 miles to Hamilton Heights and 71 miles to Tipton. You are correct it is long travel but a lot of conferences have to do it. What's more important to the school? Travel distance and not competitive or travel and be competitive? Lose or keep programs going? What is best for our student athletes? Administrators have tough choices to make.

West Central administration wised up and realized they were in over their heads and did what was best for ALL their sports teams. Caston would be very wise to follow. They have no business in this conference.

Renegade? Outlaw? Does this mean he is also a "maverick"?

Do tell! What's the update? I'm sure we're all curious!

Curry picked up a Wisconsin offer.

Systemic Racism and Bigotry Are the Lifeblood of the Left https://spectator.org/systemic-racism-bigotry-left-black-lives-matter/

Fair assessment. And don’t forget to credit the Valpo punter. IMO he was the MVP of the game.

And not much of a tutor if they don’t know the difference between prejudice and racism.

Sorry, I should have clarified, if the IHSAA has limited eligibility, the scrimmage does not count toward that. We don't count it in EACS. Edit: So, my curiosity got to me. @sls knows me well enough in that regard lol (He also is FULLY aware of this line in the rule book from a season several years ago now lol)....This is from the by laws on page 11: 54-6 A School may schedule one football Controlled Scrimmage with another IHSAA member School. A football Controlled Scrimmage between IHSAA member Schools shall be permitted on Friday or Saturday, Week 6. A football Controlled Scrimmage does not count as a Practice or as an interschool Contest. A football Controlled Scrimmage may not be scouted by anyone not affiliated with a team participating in the football Controlled Scrimmage

They were not competitive in the HNAC so fled back to the relatively lower competition of the MWC. 2012 MWC 10-2 2013 MWC 8-4 2014 MWC 6-4 2015 HNAC 1-9 2016 HNAC 1-9 2017 HNAC 0-10 2018 MWC 4-6 2019 MWC 3-6

Yet - not a peep in the MSM about the historic day in Chicago........ https://disrn.com/news/chicago-suffers-deadliest-day-in-60-years-with-18-murders-in-24-hours The city of Chicago notched a grim milestone last weekend, as 18 people were murdered on Sunday, May 31 alone, marking the deadliest day in the city since at least 1961. The University of Chicago Crime Lab's numbers do not go back further than 1961, so it's impossible to say how long it's been — if ever — since so many people were murdered in the city one 24-hour stretch. The Chicago Sun-Times describes some of the victims: In the entire weekend stretching from 7 p.m. Friday, May 29, through 11 p.m. Sunday, May 31, 24 people were killed in Chcago and another 85 were wounded by gunfire. The next-highest murder total for a single day in Chicago was on Aug. 4, 1991, when 13 people were killed.

They do not count as part of any suspension as far as having to miss games; but they also cannot count toward the 10 practice rule.

We have used the kicking option each and every time since its inception of the scrimmage format in the late 90s. We want out Placekickers to kick under the lights even without a rush. To me it is wise use of the format.

Too funny not to share.

Rose colored glasses. I guess Dwenger's highly touted defense didn't have anything to do with they way Valpo's quarterback played. Three touchdowns? That's figuring everything going right for Valpo and nothing going right for Dwenger. What if everything went right for the Saints and nothing for the Vikings? Dwenger by three touchdowns? C'mon man, seriously. How about a simple congratulations to Valpo for winning a hard fought game?

Dwenger should be better.

James Bennet's Resignation Proves the Woke Scolds Are Taking Over The New York Times https://reason.com/2020/06/08/james-bennet-new-york-times-opinion-woke-tom-cotton/ This is quite obviously nonsense: Cotton's words placed no one in imminent danger. Sadly, it's becoming distressingly common for progressive employees who wish to silence a dissident view to cite workplace safety as a pretext. To take just one example, this was how conservative writer Kevin Williamson got fired from The Atlantic. This is a disturbing trend that ought to concern everyone—liberals included. It's an insult to actual workplace safety issues, for one thing. For another, it makes the office a dangerous place to express a potentially unpopular opinion. Journalistic institutions shouldn't live in fear of difficult conversations, or of provoking offense. But the necessary consequence of this new regime of safetyism will be everybody walking on eggshells. My book Panic Attack contains countless other examples of woke young people weaponizing ever-expanding definitions of safety against people who disagree with them. In the book's closing pages, I observed that they'd been able to "hijack existing, well-intentioned harassment law in order to make campuses more repressive places. It's not impossible to imagine the same thing happening in the work place." Not impossible at all: It's happening before our very eyes. Yes, it sure is. Now private workplaces will have to also become "safe spaces" for the snowflakes working there, or else they may hear or see something that "offends" them or make them feel "unsafe".

How exactly? You live in a compound in lily-white northern Hamilton county.

https://reason.com/2020/06/03/its-time-to-bust-police-unions/ In other words, the research finds about what you'd expect given a public sector workforce with unions set up to protect police officer compensation while limiting discipline and oversight. Police get paid more, yet the public is no safer—and it's even at greater risk of violence by police. ....... Unions aren't the only problem plaguing American police forces; there are plenty of other reforms worth pursuing, from demilitarization to ending qualified immunity. But they have consistently proven to be a force of organized resistance to calmer, safer, less aggressive policing, in part because of how they perceive the nature of the job. That has been true in Minneapolis, where the police killing of George Floyd sparked nationwide protests. Bob Kroll, the president of the city's police union, wrote a letter to fellow officers describing Floyd, who was not resisting as an officer pressed a knee into his neck for nearly nine minutes, as a "violent criminal." Kroll has also referred to protesters as part of a "terrorist movement." He argued that officers were wrongly made to hold back on using less-lethal munitions to suppress riots, and he complained that the officers fired for their involvement in Floyd's death were "terminated without due process." Like other police union leaders, Kroll has resisted efforts to rein in police aggression. After the city's mayor banned "warrior training" courses that teach violent confrontation, Kroll decried the ban and struck a deal for city cops to take the course anyway. Janeé Harteau, a former Minneapolis police chief who resigned in 2017 following a police shooting, indicated that Kroll's remarks are typical of the sort of resistance to reform she encountered while chief, saying they represented "the battle that myself and others have been fighting against." In an interview with STIM radio in April, The Intercept reports that Kroll noted that he has been involved in three shootings, "and not one of them has bothered me." He lamented the emphasis on training cops to de-escalate tense situations, and cast the job as one for people who have a high threshold for violence: "Certainly getting shot at and shooting people takes a different toll, but if you're in this job and you've seen too much blood and gore and dead people then you've signed up for the wrong job." Beyond the legal and contractual particulars, these are the kinds of attitudes that police unions extol and reinforce. They contribute to a workplace culture that views policing as a job for individuals who remain unbothered by the results of violence. Police are public servants granted enormous power over the citizenry. They are tasked with protecting the public and serving their interests. Police unions, in contrast, are tasked with protecting police and serving their interests—even in direct contravention of serving the public. That distinction makes them a barrier to reforms aimed at improving public safety and increasing oversight of how law enforcement behaves. If union-busting is what it takes to reduce the pernicious influence of today's police unions on policing, then it's time to bust some police unions. Agreed. In fact all public sector unions needs to be busted, and made illegal.

Black Lives Matter Co Founder demands Minneapolis mayor to defund police. "We don't want no mo' police"

That is the primary qualification for most white liberals who pretend to be authorities on racism. I have been called a racist by more than one white liberal on this forum yet I am the only white person who has had a black personal tutor for the past 30 years.

She graduate Cum Laude with High Honors in Journalism - Bachelor of Art, Journalism from Butler University and Juris Doctor, Law from Indiana University School of Law. She was also a member of the Black Student Union. Perhaps white liberals know more about racism than black people and are better tutors on the subject of being black in America.

I have never claimed to be black. I was raised in the same area as my cousin. We are primarily rednecks.

I'm confident he did not watch the video. He may have learned not all black people have the victim mentality. He already knows more than any of them. Morgan Freeman, Lil' Wayne and Denzil Washington would be referred to as Uncle Tom's and coons by the left.

We can tell.
