Enough teams are in camp now to get this going. And what a great first entry. Of all the Brownsish things to do, this has to be the Browniest. The helmet predicts the season......shit brown. What's worse? the brown helmet or the person falling in during the unveiling? Signs your season might be cursed. Yet another mistake by the lake.

So, kids never defy their parents? Maybe kids decide they are not Christian because of their parents? Maybe the parents forced the children to attend? There are a number of possible scenarios. Funny that a religious freedom libertarian would support tax dollars going to religious schools. If or when the public system is eliminated (and there is no doubt those deciding policy and funding want that to happen, and suckered people like you into buying into it), that is all you will have left educating students in the country........with tax dollars. Careful what you wish for. There is no evidence to support your claim of it being a damn sight better. Plenty of evidence to show otherwise though.

In a previous forum here, you supported a charter school in North Carolina that would not admit non Christians, or would expel students if they found out later they were non Christian. Religious discrimination using tax dollars would be a form a of segregation. Similar case of a school in Arizona that you also defended. So, it really is not the parents choosing, it's the schools that do.

Less than half of property tax dollars go to the school corporation. You want your tax dollars to pay for your child, I have no issue with that. But a LOT of other people's tax dollars are paying for it as well. If that was the case last time you looked, then it has been a while. Segregation is not just based on race. 8.9% of voucher students are African American, while less than 20% are Hispanic. Most voucher students come from homes with an income of $100K or more. Over 30% come from homes earning more than $150K. So students are segregated based on economics as well. Then there are students on non diploma track; special needs students. Most non public schools will tell parents your child is better off in the public school. It's those students after all, that set the amount per student that schools get. So the value of a voucher is based on the costs related to the students in schools who would never be admitted to a voucher school. There are a number of other students as well who would never be considered when applying to a non public school. Those schools get to pick and choose who gets in and who does not. They also get to choose who stays and who they ask to leave; setting standards that are illegal to have in public schools.

There had been some indications for several days prior to this latest update from Ryno. FUCK cancer https://thenewslife.us/update-30-minutes-ago-cubs-legend-ryne-sandberg-reveals-final-wishes-in-cancer-battle-y1/?fbclid=IwY2xjawLssihleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFLV3h0QmpXNFMwOTNPSEZiAR6gr3HEgHHx80gxpGdSD57-ZsFKhzEdppEW5oJ_5Kbq7GGRxNz0_mTIdgW7Gw_aem_71bdJ16lzCSYkNHPw9-YBQ

West Lafayette HS and Purdue alum gets a healthy pay raise. Good for him. Never saw him in a game in high school, but did at a couple of camps at St. Francis and at Purdue. Dude was a beast even in high school.
-
Have I stated that? I thought he was a good hire at the time, but saw the issues around the 3rd year. Was never a fan of the extent of the yelling he did, and was glad the school leadership told him to take it down a few notches.
-
If I remember right, the kid got a signal from the sidelines wrong. If you look at the spot on the field; at something like their own 35? It was not the spot to run a fake, for sure. Even then, it was still way over the top for a reaction.
-
Beyond even that.

Early on I was a fan of Dabo, but remember watching a game where his punter ran a fake and did not get it. While I understand being upset, he just could not let it go. The amount of time he spent berating the kid was way over the top......and then he kept going back to the kid to yell more. I won't post the video, but it was nuts.

Impressive weekend for Scheffler

While that show was beyond ridiculous, I think you can look further back. The broadcasting of signing day and the spectacle that is made by so many has contributed to it as well. For so many, the theatrics are way beyond ridiculous. I am not going to attack or even judge the kid in this one. When you see high school athletes using the terms that the college players are using to announce their commitments, it is a bit much.
-
I remember watching this game. It was every bit as crazy as it sounds. The stats are insane. For those not on the book of faces, it’s about the Texas Tech vs. Oklahoma game with Mahomes and Mayfield as the starting QBs https://www.facebook.com/reel/1123421732978211?fs=e&fs=e

One thing to consider in this as well. A number of kids know each other from various 7 on 7 competitions, invite camps, and other workouts and camps. And they follow each other on social media. One player may consider transferring, texts a couple friends about it. Or a player announces a transfer and others see it and think about it themselves.

Just posting this as a reminder.
