Shoes for work? For a 12 year old eh?

I see where you are going. You would have no problem if dru was pushing them into the cheap labor workforce giving them a pair of steel toes, but for God's sake dont try to keep the kid interested in
School and related activities.

That might spur some upward social mobility and break a cycle of poor uneducated breeding poor uneducated, and that is something you do not want to see, do you?

Sounds like West Monroe High School in the late 1980s.

Is it really coaching though? Coach Mike Todd was doing very well at Tara during his brief time there. I just don't think they have the talent.

Coach Todd AKA "the Sheriff" thinks his shite dont stink and most of the players probably don't respect him.

His panties are just in a wad after he didn't get the HC job at Denham and I thank God for that everyday!

Yeah, 12 years old can work. I've coached youth sports and trust me any fundraising my team has been involved in required doing something for the $$ not standing outside Walmart askig for donations.

We ask our kids to go to school, be good students, and to practice hard. We ask them to come to our 3 day a week summer workout programs, and our S.P.E.A.R. in school, offseason workouts. We ask them to keep their grades up, and represent our school, and themselves well.

We don't ask them to cook jambalaya and sell raffle tickets. And we certainly don't ask them to stand outside of Walmart.

We provide our kids with all necessary equipment to compete. We dont fund raise period. As the high school head coach and AD, Dru has an interest in seeing our kids do well and become his kids in a few years. And when our middle school budget falls short, he offers to pick up the slack for the kids

It sounds to me like you are asking them to work. That's great unless you really are just asking and not demanding.
