Parents Facebook post cost TN. high school team wins

[oldrambler]

Things like this usually go in Gen. Discussion but since it involved a high school football team I thought that I would put it in this forum where most high school football fans visit. Should a Mod think that it belongs in another forum, please move it. Thank you.

 

Usually parents warn their children about being careful on what they post on Facebook. In this case it's the parent that "has some "splainin' " to do". :sssh::lol:

I love the coach's comments:

 

"We are sorry that this investigation happened and that the two players were deemed ineligible," Harrison told the Tennessean via email. "We hope to put this investigation behind us and move forward."

 

Note that he's sorry that the investigation happened. Not that they cheated. Is it impossible any more for people to admit they make mistakes? Ridiculous.

Even though I have my own Facebook account and check it on average 2-3 times per day. I still believe that one day Facebook is going to cause the demise of world!!

Probably very common, just smarter parents involved.

I guess the simple answer is; Parents do NOT discipline your children! :idunno:

Henry Co, TN where the boys live shares it's Kentucky border with Calloway County. Henry Co this year is likely the best team in West TN so I wonder why they felt a move to Perry Co.was beneficial
