Peppermint Patty got a reaction from All Sports Fan in Errows
Chicks dig the long ball.
Just like high school basketball players that practice trying to dunk all day and spend very little time shooting free throws, high school baseball players spend most of their time in the cages hitting dingers and very little time taking ground balls/fly balls. Hence, the increase in "errows".

Peppermint Patty got a reaction from Octfeb in Texas High School Baseball Rankings 03/24
Often times it's based on a coaches affiliation with the organization.
Most of the votes are by coaches who vote for a "name" not on what is happening on the field.

Barbers Hill #13? Sure, that makes sense.

Peppermint Patty got a reaction from bullets13 in Hempstead principal fired after requiring students to speak English on campus
It's a double edged sword.
On one hand, these students need to "practice" speaking English in order to assimlate into the educational/cultural environment. The ultimate goal is to speak English as a Second Language (ESL).
On the other hand, many of the students that are "new arrivals" need to speak their native language simply to navigate through the school day.
I think the principal had good intentions, but approached it from the wrong direction. I'm not so sure she should have been fired. She probably should have simply been put on a Growth Plan in reagrd to the issue at hand. We are all subject to re-education from time to time.

Peppermint Patty got a reaction from Mr. Buddy Garrity in Dad shoots daughter's boyfriend... Your thoughts?
Don't come into my house at 2:30 in the morning, without my permission, and expect some pleasantries.
The dad claims the daughter said she did not know the young man. Game over.

Peppermint Patty got a reaction from Mr. Buddy Garrity in UT Dismisses Players-Culling the Herd
UT only recruits choir boys. That's why they have such a hard time playing a physical style of football.

Peppermint Patty got a reaction from Mr. Buddy Garrity in Kliff doing work
Murray might want to play out of his dad's shadow, but I would be shocked if he does not sign with atm.
Someone will end up transferring before its all over. The Allen kid is legit. He will be very good in Sumlin's system.

Peppermint Patty got a reaction from Cowboys1981 in Tyler Kolek, Shepherd HS (TX), Scout.com Recruiting Profile
I assume Tyler broke him arm playing a position other than pitcher.
Is he playing a defensive position this year or does he only throw from the mound?

From what I've seen at SC, that is a pretty accurate analogy.
