And woe is me for having a quasi rocky morning where I saw some hypocritical bastards that in combination with the news article prompted me to offer my unsolicited two cents.<BR/><BR/>First and foremost, I have to agree that these two teams shouldn't have met in a game (the globe trotters theme still seems to apply, even more so now). If they ahd to meet anyways, it should have been an exhibition match and I definitely think the Covenant coach shouldn't have revelled in the victory as he did. As I understood it, I thought it was a game between two like ranked teams. Maybe it was my mistake in reading in a rush or maybe the article was skewed more towards manipulating my reaction to the events.<BR/><BR/>Either way, it just goes to show that it's never about winning or losing even though the Covenant coach whole heartedly disagrees. <BR/><BR/>So my apologies to the administration and I'm foreseeing an apologetic post soon lol. Oh well, at least I have writing material. :D<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the clear up Kev. Appreciate it and then some. <BR/><BR/>CheersJokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01224267023770962108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16669458.post-63680181780812104882009-01-27T22:52:00.000-04:002009-01-27T22:52:00.000-04:00I can see your point, but there's something more t...I can see your point, but there's something more to this story.<BR/><BR/>Covenant is a State Championship contender high school with 402 students. Dallas Academy has 20 students (total) and is winless in EIGHT YEARS.<BR/><BR/>Now the problem here is that these two teams have no business playing each other, and if they do have to play each other then wouldn't that be the Covenant's coach's chance to play some of the players he wouldn't usually use?<BR/><BR/>But no, this was all about the teaching the kids that excellence is all that counts. The Covenant coach talks about not running up the score, but what the hell was that if it's not running up the score. There's winning, and there's this.Kevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14329536021546805219noreply@blogger.com
