Seriously it was on 9 new last night?
Well I am glad the Chief didn't act like he was above it all and that he didn't deserve the reprimand.
And an atta boy should go to the inmate who found it and did the right thing by turning it in and not attempting to use it on anyone and try to get out of jail!

I too think this is a smart move, but I can't help but wonder why they keep re-doing and moving things back to the old hospital, when it was in such poor condition to begin with and we just had to build a new hospital.
Why is the old one good enough now to do all this other stuff with?

OMG…Whittle the Woods and Triple Crown!!?? That will be crazy out there. I hear there may also be a class reunion at the same time so that might be nice for them.
However I think there are better places to run a shuttle from than the golf course. How about the lot that use to be the Country Mall and the High School or the west portion of the Kmart parking lot??

Ranger, I get what you are saying because I was raised the same way. BUT we're not in the 60's or 70's anymore.
Parents don't parent like ours did anymore. I'm not going to say they are bad parents, because I am sure I made plenty mistakes myself.
But these kids are attending a school function and because of that, I think the Administration needs to set the ground rules and the kids need to abide by them. I don't expect them to parent the kids when the parents won't do it. I just think if these kids are using bad language and being disrepectful then boot them out. Same as they'd do in school during class or walking in the halls.

ranger, I think the Admin needs to set the ground rules because it is their responciblity as far as I'm concerned.
Yes parents need to teach their kids better manners, how to behave in public and respect for others. BUT how many parents go to the games with their high school children to watch the game. How many parents are going to walk around a babysit 50, 100 or maybe 200 screaming wild misbehaved high school students? If you think it is so easy to do, go up there and handle it yourself.
My point is, is that this problem has been brought up time and time again and the Principal and his Assistant Principals and the Admin need to get a handle on this. They need to say, this is where the student body will sit and this is how you will behave and if you are caught using bad language you will not be allowed to attend another football game this season or basketball or whatever it is.
You don't have kids so you just won't really get this I'm sure. But I can't tell you how many times I've heard of someone telling a parent their child has done something that wasn't nice….whatever it may be and the parent will look you right in the eye and say my child would never do that!! Many of us don't want to believe our kids would do certain things because they were taught better than that, but once they walk out the front door, you hope they have listened to some of the things you've said and of course they aren't going to act too bad in front of you, but they may try to get away with all kinds of stuff when you aren't around and that's why having the ADMIN handle some of these problems seems to be the best way to get things straightened out.

Silentman, I think you goofed on your typing, but am not sure. Are you saying Mrs Scranton and Mrs Hafey need to get out of the way or Mr Scranton and Mr Hafey??

Since Steve Deyo just passed away, I was going to suggest something like the Deyo Family Sports Field, because of Mr. Deyo, Mike, who was a teacher and a former player and Steve who was a player and a ref, but it appears, the Deyo name doesn't bode well for many posters. It would be interesting to see what names are brought up for this.
Also to onewhocares, I know kids get excited over games. Heck we did too, but we would never have been allowed to act like you guys do. My kids have been out of school for many years and this was a problem then. Why the admin has never done anything about it, just baffles me.
I don't think remaining in the center of the seating area is a good idea, because you just continue to get in the way of others who want to watch. Being on one end or the other makes more sense.
You should also care what these adults are saying to you, because from what I hear things are in need of repair or help up there at the football/track field. If you continue to act like spoiled rotten kids….not all but some do….there may not be a Booster Club and without the Booster club, the track might not be fixed, the announcing booth and several other things might not get fixed, because you know the school district is hurting and these things may not be high on the districts priority list.
I also know that much of what we have to say on here will not mean diddly to you and you will only start to understand what we are saying when you grow up and have kids of your own.

I wonder every now and then if anyone has ever thought that maybe his wife/girlfriend who is like 15 years younger then he is, could be the real bad guy in this situation?
Maybe she is the one that started the fight and Frank defended himself and then she called 911 cuz her mother is a dispatcher and she wanted her mother to make it better??
I know guys who have gone to jail for just such a situation. She starts a fight and he either is trying to stop her from hitting him or is defending himself and in the process she gets knocked in the face or whatever and the phone call is made. Now when there are children in the house, it is my understanding that no matter who started the fight, the woman is going to stay home with the kids and he gets a free ride to jail.
I'm not saying Frank is in the wrong nor am I saying she is. I'm saying “none of us were there” to see what actually happened. Yes Frank as an officer of the law should have had more control over himself, taken himself out of the house before it got to the point of 911 being called, but then again maybe he has reasons for staying? I don't know and neither do the rest of you.

I'm a bit confused over this. I thought three seats were up for election of new memebers and we voted on filling those three seats??
