February 10, 201412 yr HOLY :poop:, how did I miss this thread???? I need to venture away from the boys basketball forum more often. :lol: ......oh and BTW, I'm with CWB on the "held to a higher standard issue". At NewCath Carl Foster tells the students this, Bob Noll told the students this, and it doesn't mean we are better than anyone else.
February 10, 201412 yr Here is an idea. How about the CCH student section wear T-shirts in honor of both of the Ryle students at the Cooper game? I know it was just one student, but it will show that they so care and didn't not approve of the action by their fellow classmate. If it was my kid, I would ask Cooper if he could apologize to the family at mid court before the game, along with the written letters of apology to the kids entire family. It would also be nice to see the Cooper and Ryle students wear T-shirts in the kids honor as well.
February 16, 201412 yr Well, not to keep this thread going, but I think this is worth posting. This is a tweet from (I assume) a Ryle student. I blacked out her picture, name, and @ Handle to avoid any rule breaking.

February 17, 201412 yr My daughter brought this subject up the other night when Mr. lawildcat and I were driving her home from work. Through the wonderful world of Twitter, of course, everyone knows about this incident. I took this opportunity to discuss with her how her actions not only reflect back on her dad and I but that it is a reflection of her school and peers as well. I also let her know that in this day and age, stupid things that kids do are now thrown out there for all to see and judge so think before you act or your name may be on that next Twitter broadcast. How many of you have had this conversation with your kids lately? Maybe it's time to do so again.
February 17, 201412 yr Great job Cov Cath After 10 pages of teeth gnashing about the scoundrels at CCH, we see that- despite all that was said and implied- they are, after all, some classy kids (yet kids nonetheless) led by a top notch administration. As evidence that there were no suspensions or detentions handed out, it was determined that this incident was an unfortunate accident, and this gesture acknowledges the accident. Can't wait to see the next 10 pages acknowledging this. Waiting...waiting...

With that said, classy kids wouldn't of done it in the first place or if it was an accident would of made it right long before the administration had to step in and make them fix the situation. Just saying. There are some very classy students at CCH and part of the crazies, just as their are at every student section at every school.

February 17, 201412 yr Backhanded compliments- not unexpected No backhanded compliment from me at all. The point you wanted was 10 pages talking about how great it was what th student from CCH did by replacing the poster they tore down as if they went above and beyond and you went on also to let everyone know they are classy. As if doing something what they SHOULD have done in the first place was amazing. When in reality it is the very least they should have done. I love what they did in making the poster, but don't make it out as something more than what should of been done. As I said, the classy thing would have been to make things right before they even left the gymnasium that night. Not wait until your principal makes you do this. Classy is something earned not given. The administration for CCH did the classy thing here, lets not forget that.

You saw it all happen, you saw everything leading up to, during and after the accident. You walk the CCH halls, you have the inside scoop- none of the students had anything to do with the replaced banner. Forgot who I was arguing with - the great and omniscient HB.

While you continue to make excuses for the boys. How old do they need to be before they are out of your protective shadow? 35?
February 17, 201412 yr Blue dad what you continue to miss is I think what was done with the card and poster etc was great. I however don't put the boys up on a pedestal like you do knowing it was told to them to do what they did. Don't glorify a wrongdoing like you are doing. To come on here and expect to have 10 pages of forgiveness toward the crazies because of something they did wrong in the first place is pretty darn arrogant.

I was being sarcastic but at you're rate you never know- it could happen. #2- I didn't put them "on a pedestal" or call them MORE classy than other students (as you strangely claim in other posts). That's your own inferiority complex at work. I just said they are classy kids led by a classy administration. #3- since your omniscient and all, you probably know without a doubt that the letter and banner were all driven 100% by the administration right? Couldn't have been by a student or students right? Again- forgot I was dealing with someone who likes to hear himself talk.
