Re: Fairness needed in high school sports
This was pretty funny. I'm glad whoever dug it up did so. I needed the laugh. Everybody's definition of fair is different. I applaud her for having the cojones to write this and sign her name to it.
Re: Fairness needed in high school sports
I find it funny that whoever did post this again, made an account just to post it and nothing else! That's pretty lame actually. . It makes perfect sense also, just think of how you would feel if you had to watch your kid sit the bench every game knowing that he puts in a lot of time and effort! I will say that I did get a lot of playing time in the 4 sports that I played but i'll also say that there were a few of my friends on the bench that deserved playing time. & it does seem that at powell valley in past years, you either have money or you dont. . you have that name for yourself or your just another person in the crowd. . well it should never be that way. ive also seen that if your parents are suck up to the coach then you will definately play. So before all of you immature people that prob dont even have children post some of the stupid things that you post. . maybe you should find out for yourselves instead of being complete douche' bags to someone for stating their honest opinions!

Same as every parent should feel, proud that their kid is a part of a team and is working hard to improve that team and the player ahead of them and hoping they get a good life lesson out of it no matter what kind of so called "deserved" PT they do or don't get.
