Lawsuit of the week (bullying)

[Spirit]

Losing a football game is now bullying.  Seems legit.

It's not bullying until somebody posts "LOL" on facebook

I agree with the winning coach. If you aren't going to try to be competitive then why field a team?

[Blarg]

I guess they were competitive with the weak district they were in until the Bearcats were moved there citing commuting distance. They have already had 4 blowouts in 7 games where the margin of victory is 77 points. That is like putting the Red Sox in the Atlantic league and saying the Bridgeport Bluefish shouldn't even field a team if they can't be competitive.

[Blarg]

I am going out on a limb and say that the Bearcats football team is comprised of kids that commute further to school than the team does to play.

[Spirit]

I think the losing team just needs to sack up and learn to play some real TX football!

And this is the issue. They should have something like the English soccer leagues where you have to earn your way in or get relegated.

Let's please leave the gays out of this conversation.

Hard to do when talking about Texas high school football.

Do people even know what the term bullying really is? One can argue unsportsmanlike but bullying? 

 

If you look at all their games this season one thing is apparent. They shouldnt be playing the competition that they currently play. The games haven't even been close.

Unsportsmanlike complaints don't get automatic responses.

Wonder which team had more black guys

Doesnt Texas still segregate their schools?

[Blarg]

Yeah, there are schools with football players and other schools for academics also known as nerds. Evidently the Bearcats moved to the academics district.

And this is why things are so god damn expensive.

bullying is the chic term to use right now

The Jags can sue the NFL for bullying.

It is certainly a legitimate issue in schools & society, but cases like this highlight where some people jump the shark with it.
