No knock on him or the team, because you beat who’s in front of you, but if looks like two playoff wins against a .500 team and a team with a losing record was what it took to get to state? Unless maxpreps is missing some games? If that’s all it takes they should be going to state about 8 out of 10 years if he’s a good coach and attracting local talent. Their next game is against a district opponent whose incomplete maxpreps record is 7-11. I don’t know how all of the private stuff works, but I seem to remember maybe they’re soccer team winning a state championship and only having to win 3 or 4 games.

I do understand that it would require an amendment. Slave children are no longer a consideration. We need to eliminate the scenario where someone is illegal, but then has a baby that immediately becomes legal, necessitating them staying in the country to care for the newborn legal citizen. i agree to an extent on the second point, I just didn’t want to go through and list every crime that I thought would qualify. Super minor stuff isn’t an issue to me. I was going to say anything worse than a class C misdemeanor, but there’s a couple that seem somewhat serious to me, depending on the circumstances. So I guess i should’ve went with “most crimes more serious than a traffic violation.”

It shouldn't be easy to become a citizen, but the process shouldn't be so long and difficult that it's just easier to break the law and come in illegally. I would love to see a revamped system that does a few things: 1. make the pathway to citizenship more attainable for migrants 2. make it a requirement for all money made while here on a temporary status to be taxed, and at a higher level than it is for citizens. any effort to circumvent this process means immediate deportation with no future opportunity at citizenship. 3. any crime worse than traffic offenses results in immediate and permanent deportation, with no future opportunity at citizenship. 4. Any immigrant willing to serve a 4-year stint in a branch of our military gains immediate citizenship upon completion. 5. Immigrants and their families, regardless of status, should not be eligible for handouts such as WIC, medicaid, food stamps, etc. If a family can't survive without these, they are not benefiting our country, and should be deported without future opportunity at citizenship. 6. Any child born here to illegal parents should not be given immediate citizenship, and should be treated as a citizen of the country of their parents' birth.

I wouldn’t have an issue with the age being raised for voting or military service, either. Or a clause in the law that allows for those serving to do some things that they’d normally have to wait until 21 to do

Honestly don't think it'll stop a whole lot of attacks, but it's one of those "if it saves just one life" sort of deals that I can actually get behind a little bit. 18-21 year olds are dumb. I don't mind if they can't go buy a long gun.

Texas House panel OKs bill raising age to buy semi-auto rifles | 12newsnow.com It's still a long shot that this gets done, but it's one piece of gun control legislation that I actually think is a good idea. Give some of these young, dumb kids a couple of years to get out of high school and grow up a little, and get over being bullied or broken up with or whatever else felt like the end of the world when they were 18.

I don't know you, have never mentioned your name on the site, and don't have an issue with any of the reasons you've stated on here. I've heard only good things about you, and respect the fact that you come on here and say who you are. That said, I'm still in agreement with Knox about not wanting a coach who always has a reason to leave. I'm not about to debate a man about what's in his own head and heart, but I think your record speaks for itself in two ways. 1. You're a good coach that 2. doesn't stay in one place. I'm not going to dissect every reason you've posted, but reading them I'd think there's a good chance there will be another reason that comes up causing you to move on to the next school, especially if it's an upgrade. If I were at OF, I would be hesitant to hire someone who has a history of not staying in one place, no matter how good of a track record they have as a coach. I work in education, and often serve on interview panels, and it's always a red flag when a teacher turns in an application with a job history full of one-year stints and a bunch of different schools. Coaching isn't any different in that aspect. All that said, you have a working relationship with those at the school, and are a proven winner, so you do have a nice inside track towards the job. I wish you the best of luck, whether it be at OF or elsewhere.

Yup. Or some districts Might extend the school year a week, have the students attend select Fridays at the beginning of the year, and cut a day or two off of this or that break. As a teacher, I'm holding out hope that I get the opportunity for a 4-day work week at some point before I retire.

He’s a polarizing coach, but from what I’ve heard and seen from lumberton, they love him there. I think most of the criticism comes from outside that community. I’ve been guilty of it myself, but through some of the conversations I’ve had on here, I’ve heard almost all positives from people in and around the program.

He’s got a really good thing going where he is. The community and kids are bought in.

EC might have a couple of down (for them) years, but from what I hear they have some kids 5-6 years out that will have them as good or better as they’ve been the last few years

Furious Portland residents say Democrat-backed bill would allow homeless camps to terrorize communities (msn.com) The basic gist of this is that if someone asks a homeless person to move from a public place (for example, the stoop of their restaurant, or the sidewalk in front of their house), said homeless person will be allowed to sue them for up to $1000. House Bill 3501, commonly known as the "Right to Rest Act," would allow "persons experiencing homelessness" to "use public spaces in the same manner as any other person without discrimination based on their housing status" with an "expectation of privacy."

I think some fan bases typically are worse than others, but every school has at least 1 or 2, and it only takes 1 or 2. When there's more than that it's a nightmare.

parents are part of the job, and bad ones can be as unappealing as bad players.

I found them on facebook. They didn't want to be white. That said, lots of interesting things in the comments of some of their friends and families. People accusing the victim's girlfriend of sleeping with the shooter, who was supposedly one of the victim's best friends.

I have a pretty good idea where he is.

that's tough. prayers for the family and community.

After a little blip on the radar the Rangers took 3 of 4 from the yanks, including a 15-2 spanking yesterday. DeGrom on the DL is a blow, but they got a 3-hit shutout from Eovaldi, and two other solid starts in the series. Seager is getting close to coming back, which will be a boost to an offense that is already raking.

My cousin's ex-wife/baby mama was on there with her new lesbian girlfriend about 25 years ago. Good times.

When I read this, I assume they already know who the persons of interest are. If that's the case, there's no reason to issue descriptions, or even names at this point.

I agree with this. I have some friends who had a child that was born with a rare disorder that is fatal inside of two years, always. The child was in constant pain, had no quality of life, no ability to communicate, etc. etc. etc. The child suffered for about 16 months, financially and emotionally ruining the family in the process, and then died, having never known anything other than pain. Another scenario: if one of my daughters had terminal cancer, and after all hope was lost, decided that they were tired of fighting, of being in a type of pain that medicine could barely touch, I would let them make that decision (even at 7 and 10). Because keeping them around would be for own selfish reasons, and no different than people I know who wait too long to put their pets down, as they suffer silently.

In regards to BU, I don’t see them at state next year. They’ll still be really good, but I think losing Yates and Porchia will be too much to overcome. That said, with Dotson and Payia as seniors, they’ll still have a lot to offer, and could make a deep run. They’ll have another very good season if they stay healthy.

They have “4 persons of interest”, according to the news
