what do you have against public schools?

Nothing at all, I could give a shite less who won today because I don't have a dog in the hunt.

Is it somehow cheating that the private school spent all that money (parents) and they didn't get the championship they thought they were buying with their money?

This question leads me to believe that you have an axe to grind with private schools. You do realize that not every parent sends their kids to a certain school because of athletics don't you?

In the case of OCS I would imagine most of those parents just wanted their kids to be educated in a Christian environment. There are certainly other schools in the Monroe area where the athletics are held in higher esteem than at OCS, and public schools at that.

So to assume that these parents were merely trying to pay for a championship is demeaning to the effort of the kids on the field. They already lost in the championship today, why do you feel the need to kick them when they are down?

I think he's only a junior, but he had a really impressive year. Regular 200 yard games, most of which came on less than 20 carries a game.

He is a junior. I didn't get to see the game, but listening to the OCS announcers, he has great vision and hits even the smallest of holes. One announcer even compared him to Barry Sanders.

One more time...damn....

FWIW, my daughter spent most of her school years in private school (Parkview Baptist, if you must know)...so I've put plenty of money in a private school (Christian Life for a few years also).

The football parents, for the most part, absolutely do send their sons to a private school for the athletics - you are stupid to believe otherwise (i know i'm repeating that thought for you).

You say you don't give a shite - bullshite, you're bleeding!

Again, I'm glad a public school won today, just to stick it in your arse one more time!

Why did the older Bracken play at St. John but not this younger one?

You are absolutely wrong and your ignorance is blinding.. Go ahead and kick OCS and every other private school.

Not sure, but the older Bracken is a prime example of what St. John has always done to bolster their athletics - going into neighboring black communities and stealing their choice athletes away from the public schools with carefully selected "financial aid".

I've never heard of this "White Castle"...are they a new school in 1A?


No. The City is named after Nottaway Plantation because it looks like a big White Castle
