Texas Girls Team was Game 100-0...and has to Apologize!

[MattinglyAlexander]

This little charade goes on every time a new President of a rival party comes into office...Reagan started the ban, Clinton reversed it, Bush 2.0 reinstated it, and now Obama reverses it again.

So, 2 good decisions and 2 bad...

I for one would rather not have my tax dollars going to family planning in other countries.

You understand that your money is going there whether you like it or not right? Your money will go to the building, maintenance and staffing of hospitals to take care of the babies, those infected with HIV, and to assist the mothers during birth whether you like it or not...so why not preventative medicine and education?

Let me guess...you work for an insurance company? That must be it, because I've never found an insurance company that believed in preventative medicine or preventative consulting.

We are talking about abortion here. I don't think anyone really has a problem with any of the other uses of the money, but if you are calling abortion "preventative medicine "......

You're a regurgitating mama bird if you believe that this bill is solely about funding abortions, you should know that just because the media keys a word...you don't have to bite. Nonetheless, you seem to key in on "ABORTION" and run with it.

If people don't have problems with the other uses of the money, maybe you should again read why Clinton and now Obama have reversed this. It has everything to do with how broad the law was written, and less about actual abortions.

Of course...I don't expect you to do that.

Oh well, Jesus loves you...

No, you're trying the good old trick of saying that I'm saying something I'm not. Read what I said again. I object to the abortion PART. Obviously. Also, I can't remember the phrase for this, but yeah, all the other "good stuff" the stuff that I have no problem with, is just sugar coating to make us swallow the entire load of bullshyte! Either you like bullshyte, or you don't know you're eating it. Which is it my friend?

You have shown my point exactly. Thank you.

Now, you claim to know/follow history...do a little research on this.

And yes...I read what you wrote, wasn't that obvious when I said that your "keyed in on ABORTION?" Or did you skip over that part using selective reading?

You proved one thing.... the bill is ok without abortion being part of it...but *abortionmongers will never agree to remove it...all the other services end up being camouflage.

I "keyed" and ENLARGED "so why not preventative medicine and education" and my comment was alluding to the trickery of placing abortion in that category, which is what it seems you are doing and just as mamma bird told you to ...a bunch of tomfoolery if ya ask me.

 

[thinjim]

this made my morning news. Little rochester Illinois

 

[predatorkj]

His employer had gone on record as apologizing for the actions of its school representatives...in this case...it's girl's basketball coaches.

The head girl's basketball coach breaks away from the school's official statement and claims he does not include himself in Covenant's open-ended apology.

As a representative of Covenant, he has the obligation to fulfill the statement and mission of his employer.

He did not. Right, wrong, in between, he did not and the majority of people would lose their job for publically rejecting the official statement of their employer.

:| No, he does not have to agree with the OPINION of his employer.

as a matter of fact, isn't that a civil rights violation for firing him because he didn't share the same view? I'm just asking.

He was told to apologize, he refused. Insubordination. Plain and simple.


While I commend the coach for standing his ground, they had every right to dismiss him.

I have to agree.I am not sure he should have apologized but I think we can all say that if he didn't or he went off on some rant about it then it would mean his job.

 

[predatorkj]

And, I'd appreciate it if the "this is what's wrong with out country crowd" would lock it up. There are much bigger fish to fry. Our new President just signed an executive order that will allow for our tax dollars to go to the funding of international abortions....just a little perspective.

What the hell?????? :evil:

Actually I would think insurance companies would want anything in effect that would save them a dime down the road and what your talking about would in fact save them many dimes down the road.

I simply don't want a dime of mine spent overseas.This country has enough problems.We don't need anyone else's problems.People can either agree or disagree but its the truth of the matter that we have many problems here and they need to be fixed.Why do I always get the feeling our government is like a toddler with attention span of 3 seconds.

For Predator...

Connecticut instituted a mercy rule for football in 2006, but it doesn't end games early. If a school wins by 50 or more points, the coach is suspended for the next game.

Once in place, it didn't take long for the rule to have an effect. Central (Bridgeport) opened its 2006 season with a 56-0 victory over crosstown rival Bassick.

Central athletic director Eric Graf said Central scored its first three touchdowns before its offense took the field. As his Hilltoppers were headed downfield toward what would have been the offending score, Graf said the potential suspension for coach Dave Cadelina became the main topic among the Central fans sitting around him.

"People around me were saying, 'What are they going to do? … Should they fall down?'" Graf said. He said Cadelina already had emptied his bench against an opponent that had not won a game in five years. Graf said a sophomore running back making his first varsity carry broke loose for another touchdown with about four minutes to play. "Here was a kid scoring his first touchdown," Graf said, "and people in the stands were saying, 'What is he doing?'"

Did Central kick the PAT?

Said Graf: "No. They lined up for two, and the quarterback took a knee."

I don't understand what point that makes other than the fact a mercy rule was in fact put in place.Football is kind of a hard game to let your guard up on.If you do...you can get hurt.Teams here in Texas get beat 60 and 70 to nothing.It doesn't mean the other team was always a crappy team getting picked on either.

But the dude even said he cleared his bench and had people who never started a varsity game scoring touchdowns.What do you do in that situation.He got in trouble for that?That is dumb.I guess taking a knee didn't help his cause.

This is why i think this whole mess is a bunch of baloney.I was really trying hard to agree that the coach for the winning basketball team was in the wrong but when you bring stories up like this it just strengthens my conviction that the coach should let the game be played 100% till its over.Yes you need to use bench players but even then you can't tell them to not go hard and I think if you stick a 15 year old kid out there on the football field who has never played a game and call a running play...your not showboating or trying to run up the score.I am glad I don't live there.I'd never have played football I guess.

Your money is spent overseas....EVERYDAY.

Your money is rebuilding...IRAQ.

Your money is feeding....ETHIOPIANS.

Your money has already helped....INTERNATIONAL ABORTIONS.

Your money helped aid.....TERRORISTS.

Believe me, your money has been getting spent less in the states and more overseas.

Regardless of president, it's been happening.

Even I thought it was bad and thought I'd share it with you as you discussed football earlier in the thread.

Oh I know.I wouldn't say Obama has done anything more to that effect than any other president.I just don't agree with it.Especially the rebuilding of Iraq part.Its like beating the dog mess out of somebody and then offering to pay their medical bills.I have never done that and I would hazard a guess most people wouldn't if they had their say.The only real reason they do it is because they stand to gain something from it.

Football is a different animal and I know little about the actions a coach can take in a blow out other than just running the ball and working the clock.

Aside from just throwing the ball away on purpose...there aren't really.I mean you could take a knee but I still feel that sends the wrong message.You suck so we will take a knee.No good.
