The Bastrop/Carrol game was called in the 3rd quarter due to a very bad fight. Both teams have been excluded from the playoffs.
Parkview HS in Baton Rouge and another team (cant remember name) got in almost an identical type bench-clearing brawl. Parkview will be allowed to play in the playoffs.
I live in the vicinity of Bastrop, but not a fan. I keep hearing, "because Parkview is white and has money." and "there were no blacks on the committee that ousted Bastrop".
I tend to believe its more of the traditional LHSAA hatred of North La teams. More of an anti-regionalist thing.
Being that the LHSAA is one of the worst organizations in La I really wouldn't doubt either. Anyone know the reasons why the white school was not punished the same as the two predominately black? I honestly dont know.

Parkview stayed on their side of the field and the videos show them being pretty innocent in the whole ordeal. Baker was the one who sparked it and ran across the field. I've never gotten a straight answer as to why Baker stormed the field tho. Most people here say that Parkview was perfect little angels that night which I find hard to believe.

According to all reports I've read the south La team helped LHSAA with investigation of infractions with videos and a list of players involved, North La teams not so much....

Parkview, sorry. Most people that saw the films said there wasnt any difference in the actions of the 4 teams. They were all most or less the same.

i remember playing bastrop in high school and those guys were pretty thuggish at that time.
The black guys on our team were scared for their life.

That's not reasonable enough? Or are you just convinced it's racism?

I agree, but has nothing to do with the response of the lhsaa, Bastrop/Carol/Parkview all acted like thugs.

First off, its Mr mr pain to you

And second you act like Parkview has Nothing but white people... Not true

Also Baker is as black of a school as there is

And seriously do you really think the LSHAA went "hey lets screw these kids season up because they are from a black school"?

Just stirring race up for no reason

Well i have no inside knowledge on either case so im not goin to jump to conclusions unlike you.

All i know is that your theory doesnt hold water and you are just straight race baiting

And really dude? You called me a girl? Thats your boom is saying ms pain? You fail at this internet thing, youd be better off only using it to jerk it to Jemel Hill articles

Pretty ignorant statement wild. I'm asking a question, not race baiting. Any question dealing with race upset you? Many people up here believes it was strictly a race thing, I was looking for a logical answer to a very illogical decision made by a group of legal thugs. Simply looking for an explanation, which people like yourself obviously are not intelligent enough to understand.

No not every race question bothers me

Race questions that jump to race conclusions without any reason bother me

The logic you are using doesnt even make sense

Please tell me what the LSHAA would have to gain from a white team getting in the playoffs and a black team not getting in?
