Disappointing Incident At the Ryle and CovCath Game

Featured Replies

What I want to know is where was Ryle's game management? Who was responsible for the the gym that night and why couldn't they have talked to Bob and handled things. Surely, the adults could find this person and ask them to take care of the situation?

 

Seriously, this thing has skyrocketed out of control. I understand a grieving mother, etc...but putting that sign by the visiting student section and expecting a group of freshman boys to care as much about it as others is asking a bit too much.

Really????

 

Wow, I was all for

Not throwing stones etc but reading your replies and lcats etc I can't help but speaking my mind now about the ridiculous posts of yours I just read.

 

It's freaking ridiculous that you and cats are now turning this to put the blame on Ryle. How spineless can you be?

 

Your almighty untouchable COV CATH students tore down a poster put up in memory of a classmate and you are actually going to turn the tables and blame Ryle students???????? You should be ashamed of yourselves.

 

How dare you even think because of a crappy move by one of your schools students you blame Ryle for this thing.

 

Your actions alone by protecting the guilty and persecuting the innocent is shameful.

 

I take it from your name on here you are a CCH dad or alumni, I sure hope you don't teach your kid to do what you do and blame the innocent for your wrongdoing when you get caught doing something tasteless and wrong.

 

Dramatic and sanctimonious are the two words that come to mind from reading your posts Hellbird. Thanks for the personal attacks- not entirely unexpected from the most thinly veiled CCH hater on the board.

 

Where in the world do you get from my posts that I'm blaming the Ryle students- or blaming ANYONE for that matter? All I'm saying is that the adult(s) who took the pictures of the "perceived" incident felt strongly enough to post them to Facebook and condemn the students an hour or so after the game instead of talking with Ryle admins or CCH admins on site to establish the facts.

 

You weren't there so I will set the scene. 100+ CCH boys crammed together in a section of bleachers. The back two rows of which are pressed up against the back of the railing where some posters were hung. Posters with no clear indication of what they were about except to the Ryle folks. Could the boys have been more careful when jumping and falling? Of course. Do I think they could have been more careful? Of course. Do I think they maliciously and knowingly tore down a poster knowing it was in honor of a deceased student? No I do not. No one has claimed those boys are angels except for you. No one has lumped the CCH students into the "almighty untouchables" except you. In fact- How Dare YOU sir...jump on here with your holier than thou attitude throwing labels at people you have no clue about.

 

It was a series of unfortunate events - ie: grieving parents and friends, placing a symbol of their grief in the one place in the gym where it had a high risk of being damaged, surrounded by nothing but a bunch of rowdy kids just there to see a game.

 

Thus far no suspensions have been given yet to my knowledge and I bet I'm a little closer than you. If you want to dissect and analyze and draw this out further, please proceed- I have no doubt that you will judging from your history. That is, when your not organizing your lynch mob. Oh- and don't worry yourself on how I raise my kids. Believe me when I say, that they "own it".

 

Lastly to the Ryle folks and friends and family of the deceased- the CCH community has nothing but our heartfelt sympathies over this tragedy.

You are right, Freshman boys should always be counted on to

1 have no feelings

and

2 to be counted on to tear up posters hanging near them in gyms

 

I have no idea who Bob is and what he looks like, I didn't know everyone knows Bob.

 

You are right, it is all Ryles fault, how dare anyone point a finger to the actual guilty party, afterall they are just freshman and should be coddled especially because they can do no wrong or should ever be expected to act like responsible young men.

 

What was I thinking?

how dare Ryke! They should be ashamed!

You don't get it do you? Not one clue.

 

You were there? Then why didn't you do something???????????

 

how do you know it was a adult who took the pic, and who cares who took the pic? You again blame Ryle for not doing anything. IT WAS THE CCH STUDENTS THAT PERFORMED THE ACT! Shouldn't they be accountable for their own actions? Why do you have to have another schools students or adults take care of it?

 

You also saying it was out in a place with a high level of being damaged tells me one thing, and that is that your boys are known for destroying posters because there have been games in there and people in there before your marched into town and no damage to any of the posters. So why would they be in trouble for CCH kids? Is it because they are used to damaging others properties wherever they go? If that is the case then it's CCH parents fault it went this far because apparently you all are used to the kids destroying things and you should of went up and told the Ryke administrators to put armed guards up there to prevent your kids from vandalizing the property.

 

As far as you saying I am against CCH. Do me a favor and show me one single post on this site where I ever said I'm not a fan of CCH. You are clueless. I happen to support CCH and always have.

Do it Bluedad, show me....come on I'm waiting!!!!!!!!!

Again with the drama. If you can read you will see where I said that I was there that night, but did not see the perceived incident.

 

Your right HB- we're all just a bunch of no good poster tearers at CCH. I mean, that is what your looking for yes- some type of affirmation?

 

Get over yourself.

If you couldn't tell, the last post is full of sarcasm.

 

Except for the show me any post I made where I said I dislike CCH

 

bluedad being clueless should not be a reason to make this horrible story any worse.

Show me where I ever said I don't like CCH.

You

have no clue who I am. You have no idea. You and your judgmental attitude kills me.

 

I could care less if it was CCH, Conner, Cooper, Beechwood or whoever. Your belief that everyone is against CCH is not only flawed but very sad.

 

Its not CCH I have ever had a problem with. What I have always had a problem with are parents like yourself who apparently teach their kids to never take blame for their own actions and to point the finger to others for the blame. You set an awesome example.

 

Let me go through the blame game you put out there.

1 you blamed Ryle for hanging a poster where your schools kids would with a high probability of tearing it up.

 

2 you blame Ryle adults for not going over and talking to CCH administration

 

3 you blame a Ryle adult for taking a picture of the incident.

 

 

So if I got this straight. No where is any guilt ever levied on the actual person(s) who tore up the poster.

 

Yet it is me who has a problem?

Come on, man. You expect a kid to rat out another kid? The adult who saw the sign being ripped should have found Bob Rowe and it would have been taken care of. Instead, they decided to put it all out on social media like a kid would do.

 

I hate the "rat/narc" mentality. Yes, I do expect kids to do what is right. If that means speaking up against a friend, I expect them to do it.

Drop it...I'm not going to hold a mindless/pointless discussion with you that is off the topic.

 

Good move, I agree.

I do too.

 

What has gotten me so fired up on this subject where before I was very neutral was when fingers started being pointed and blaming Ryle for this entire thing.

 

Step up and be mature, if it was an accident then admit to that and apologize etc. but don't blame others who did nothing wrong just to protect your own.

Show me where I ever said I don't like CCH.

Dude, you really love to hear yourself speak don't you?

 

Again- I am not "blaming" anyone at Ryle. Yes yes yes- and yes again- a CCH student (or students) was responsible for the poster being ripped. No one here knows intent including yourself, yet you continuously imply the CCH student did it intentionally.

 

I am simply -and I thought logically - saying that the circumstances where ripe for an accident and hurtful feelings. Everyone could have used better judgement. Placing a valued poster behind the CCH students was a poor decision. The CCH student who ripped it (accidentally or not) made a poor decision. Posting this kind of stuff to Facebook was a poor decision. Arguing with someone who likes to hear themselves talk was a poor decision.

 

Lastly, it must make you feel better about yourself to continuously throw people- specifically CCH students and people you don't know - up on a perceived high pedestal just so you can try and tear them down. As evidenced by your posts here I quote you when referencing CCH students as such: "almighty, untouchable, can do no wrong, should ever be expected to act like responsible young men, such good students and role models, the Christian thing to do".

 

No one in this thread has said the above things about CCH students except you. You are the only one here stringing this out and trying to make this something that it's not. No one has claimed that CCH students are somehow morally superior or blameless. We've ALL got great kids in ALL of our schools who are doctors, lawyers, engineers, trash collectors and bus drivers. Just like we've ALL got bonehead kids in ALL of our schools who need to turn it around.

You may need to read this thread again and read all the posts again. I wasn't me who said CCH could do no wrong. Again you have no idea what you are talking about.

Uh -huh. Ok, so you DIDNT write those things about the CCH students that I outlined above? Have another cup of coffee and re read your own posts.

I thought Cov Cath students were the best of the best?

 

Not even close.

 

While I don't agree with him, the choir boy image that many CCH alum and fans try to portray is a bit much IMO.

 

Clearly, which is why I said I didn't agree with him, however I equally disagree with the general image that most CCH alumni try to paint of the CCH student body.

 

Bluedad these are just a few of the posts made hinting toward what you claim I did.

 

Now if you read my posts you will see the only time I mentioned CCH was just stating the students school. Not one time did I ever say I disliked CCH, it was simply stating what school the student reposible attends.

I also several times pointed out it could have been Cooper etc.

 

The pots I quoted here were all in jest and if you cant tell that then maybe you shouldn't read mb's.
