I’ve grown so disgusted with the whole sordid affair that I’m struggling to maintain sympathy for even the innocent kids now. I hope every one of the lowlifes that perpetrated this rot in hell.
Hayfield back in the playoffs...maybe not
- Thread starter VolNation85
- Start date
Hayfield pushed out a good coach that was making them competitive and doing it the right way. The Administration at the school needs the hammer to drop on them!
Hopefully everybody kept receipts as there is a lot of explaining to do starting with the FCPS Superintendent. It would be interesting to see that explaining done under oath in front of a judge.
The AD resigned already. I would be shocked if the principal remains after this year.
Wow. Did all this adjusting of playoffs for nothing. Now a team gets to advance to region finals without having to play the 2 games this week. Getting a second round bye and not having to play Hayfield has to be a relief.
Terrible situation that could have been avoided right up to the point the judge delivered the injunction had FCPS administrators and leadership done the right thing. Now they are all in CYA and finger pointing mode. They were lying right up until the point those lies became obvious and no longer able to be covered. The old adage, when you find yourself in a hole quit digging, would seem to apply and hopefully FCPS will now do what they should have done last summer.
This has been a fascinating study into the pratfalls of the "win at all costs" attitude so many have.
I am a VERY competitive person. Always have been. But I insist on FAIR competition.
The grownups who orchestrated this knew damned well what they were doing, and they did it anyway.
There is no way I would feel pride if GWHS recruited two dozen ringers from around the state, dressed them up in a G.W. uniform, and laid 60-point drubbings on teams who were playing by the rules.
A whole lot of people need to be chagrined and punished for this.
