September 15, 201412 yr Were the police at the school as some online are saying? My understanding is one student was arrested by the police.
September 16, 201412 yr I think more then one was searched and questioned, but I was told only one was arrested and removed from the team. This is all from people who were not there, so take it for what its' worth. You know how my grapevine works, so who knows.
September 16, 201412 yr Is this someone going to hurt us What? Are you serious? I guess so or you wouldn't have asked. Pretty pathetic my friend!
September 16, 201412 yr What? Are you serious? I guess so or you wouldn't have asked. Pretty pathetic my friend! Regardless of who it was, Raceland has a depth chart and that depth chart has changed in one position. One player has been released. That's all. And that has been confirmed. Other students were searched because someone had ratted them out but there was no evidence found. Raceland is not a school to look back at the past. You keep moving. He is now off the team. Great. He messed up. Colegrove game is this Friday.
September 16, 201412 yr You know how my grapevine works, so who knows. Yes, this morning it's up to 8 kids and 2 administrators lol (I'm joking, of course, but that is how the grapevine works)

Raceland can't spout about our storied history and fail to acknowledge when bad decisions mar that history. It's easy to cast stones at the neighbors like Greenup when they have an issue, but it is difficult to admit when there's a problem in house. Raceland isn't without it's scars. Rap tapes and the like are all included in one's history. Kudos to the staff and admin for addressing the situation swiftly. I hope it's an abberation, not the norm.

But at Raceland, we tolerate nothing. The rap tapes were assessed at the time as well. Salmons took care of the problems yesterday. All said and done, we all accept the fact the player screwed up. But when you make a bad decision like that, at Raceland, the players turn from you and they move on. One of the things that I have always been proud of at Raceland is the players let nothing distract them from their goal. Always been very proud of that. Instead, the team turns that into a "fire" and they feed off of it. But yes, it is hard to take it in when it happens to your own house, but faces come and go every year. The tradition continues.

And I certainly understand your point. These things left unchecked slowly become your culture. Thankfully, football at Raceland means enough to the school, the students, and the community, that when appropriate action is taken to curb bad behavior it prevents it from becoming the culture. Now, with that said, I hope that when it happens to the neighbors that we don't hear chirping out of our own.

September 16, 201412 yr Agreed. That school down the road has made it a culture, for example. And this is the type of stuff we need to be above. Can't cast stones, our house is currently made of glass.
September 16, 201412 yr So Raceland kicks the kids off the team, but Somerset just suspends them, interesting.
September 16, 201412 yr Agreed. That school down the road has made it a culture, for example. I'd be willing to bet 99% of the schools in the state has at least 1 kid on their team experimenting with something... As far as saying that is the culture at Greenup, how do you know? Let's not condemn a whole team for the actions of a few. As bad as drugs are in this area is there any wonder that these things are happening. It's sad.

I was merely staying that Fairview, with there past, is now known for what they did. I'm not trying to call them out or anything, nor Greenup. At all. I was using them as an example.
