Hoosier Conference 2019
foxbat replied to Punttheball's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
I didn't know that Rossville was entertaining a youth football league again. Is it contact or flag? They used to have a tackle program at the youth level, but that kind of went away back when the high school decided to not field football teams and focus more on soccer/baseball. -

Knowing some of the combatants in those debates, I'm not sure the mercy rule will preclude a debate.

Hoosier Conference Pick 'Em Week 1

I'm making a change, but it looks like the system won't let me edit or delete the previous post. Everything's the same, except I'm going out and picking LCC over Tri-West. It was only a three-point game last season and I think the first-year coach jitters are all over with. Plenty of season left too if I pick wrong. 2 POINTS EACH Benton Central @ Delphi Eastern Hancock @ Northwestern Hamilton Heights @ Mt. Vernon Cass @ Pioneer Madison Grant @ Tipton Twin Lakes @ Western West Lafayette @ Lafayette Jeff Guerin Catholic @ McCutcheon Carroll @ Tri-County Taylor @ North White South Vermillion @ Covington Frankfort @ Clinton Central 3 POINTS EACH Kankakee Valley @ Rensselaer Central Catholic @ Tri-West -

If you go out to the NFHS learning site for coaches, https://nfhslearn.com/home/coaches, and select Indiana, it will show you that three videos/training are required of all coaches in Indiana: concussions, heat illness prevention, and sudden cardiac arrest. In addition, it also says that Indiana Football SEA 222 course is also required for football coaches.

I stand corrected @Irishman. Was there an indication of archdiocesan financial support or was this mainly focusing on voucher money? Many of the schools receive both, which would bring a particularly interesting and reciprocal situation where a school could be pressured by the archdiocese, but affiliated parishes could also be pressured from the collection plate by congregants from schools that look more like Brebeuf. The less low-level affiliation a school has, for example a Catholic school that isn't specifically tied to parishes, the less reciprocity there would seem to be in the pressure level. I'm curious as to whether it might be more one-way or whether there is a two-way likelihood as these issues are pressed more.

I'm not sure it would be as much of an issue with Cathedral as Cathedral is not officially backed or even directly associated with the Diocese outside of a general assumption that it's a Catholic institution. While at one point it was tied to the Brothers of Holy Cross and has recently been re-affiliated, they tend to be considered an independent Catholic school.

The Problem with "Reparations"

You are spot on in the analysis. It's really not about the money. -
Songs That Speak Redux
foxbat replied to foxbat's topic in Gridiron Out of Bounds's Out of Bound Forum
@gonzoron Appreciate the heads up on this! I hadn't seen it, but it looks like a nice event to attend. I may have to cut practice early this day and head down to Indy to find a theater where it's playing. Rush officially announced their retirement late last year, so there's been a growing depression amongst fanatics. Perhaps this will be a worthy temporary fix. I've been hanging around, but overseas right now and working through my mom having a heart attack recently as well as the death of my wife's much younger brother earlier this year. Reality has consumed much more of life and been more engaging recently. -

You say you know Rapinoe's history and then claim that you aren't 100% sure that it's accurate that she started her national anthem during the Obama administration. Which one is it? You say that her history is easy to find, but claim that you aren't quite sure when she started. When she started is very much so out there. And the fact that she was White, female, and in a sport other than football made it even more the story when it occurred. https://sports.yahoo.com/megan-rapinoe-national-anthem-sing-us-soccer-world-cup-211549494.html FTA: For Rapinoe, the anthem is a “somber moment” for a “peaceful protest” of inequality and injustice throughout the United States. It’s inequality and injustice she has been aware of for years now, even as she proudly sang the anthem prior to the summer of 2016. But that summer, she had what she calls an “awakening.” She was “very much inspired” by Colin Kaepernick and his protest of racial injustice and police brutality. Around that time, “the whole meaning of the anthem changed dramatically for me,” Rapinoe told Yahoo Sports. And she came to a realization: “I need to do something.” So, days after Kaepernick first dropped to a knee, Rapinoe did as well. ... As she wrote weeks after she first knelt, her protest was about "over-policing" and "racial profiling," about "ensur[ing] that freedom is afforded to everyone in this country." Her choice to not sing the anthem is essentially an extension of that. U.S. Soccer eventually adopted a rule prohibiting players from kneeling before national team games. Rapinoe, who calls the rule “cowardly” and “backwards,” now clasps her hands behind her back and stares straight ahead, expressionless, instead.
