Had a guy like him at Luers a few decades ago. Went to be a Spartan, but ended up the FB for Anthony Thompson and Vaughn Dunbar.
Yeah, go stand next to Blaine Bishop.
Shall I spell it out for you? My ex moved to South Bend, so I moved back so the kids didn't have to change schools. Plus, the pay is about $10K lower in Frankfort. Is that fleeing?
It's interesting that they haven't seen that the coach version is a better version.
I also wanted to chime in that some of the best athletes at Luers were not rich at all and some of the best athletes at Luers were very rich! 🙂
Maybe simplification. Be happy for them, instead of whining because some of them don't want to play football and they push your team up into a higher class. Better yet, find someone to tap in. I think Woodlan would welcome them, yes. Sherwood will teach them.
This is true. I have a friend who has a kid who sits on the bench at Snider. I guarantee you he would have started as a sophomore at Luers.
No, the main purpose of a government school is not that. I'm simply stating that if you lose that population, you're town dies. Perhaps it wasn't racism, but innuendo that that population can not be taught to play American tackle football. You and I both know which children cause the trouble in town and school. I'm not sure of which background those kids playing with the gun were. I also wonder why the authorities didn't follow up on attendance. Perhaps the parents called them in.
Sometimes there are what I perceive to be veiled racist comments about the population of Frankfort. As I did when I worked there, I'll simply calmly point out that that 4A number would probably be 2A if that population would have never come there, possibly even 1A and the town would be where? How many teachers wouldn't have jobs? Bus drivers? Custodians? Football coaches? And the chain reaction begins. The football woes have been blamed on being a minority majority district where the majority minority is Hispanic, if you follow that. Sad to see that three juveniles were involved in a shooting just a couple of days ago. Sad.
This is more factual. They would have scored, even as unsophisticated, biased and pot stirring as I am, I could see that. Instead, the Stars threw a TD pass on the very next play. Bad call directly led to that margin of victory
