That's probably because they were the one's responsible for the removal of the benches, not the athletic department

Well the athletic department told the them to take out the benches.

Even though you were not a bully when you were into sports . . . have you ever personally done anything, or at least personally made an attempt to counteract the bullying done by some of your fellow team mates?

Now if you have, then you have been part of the solution.

But if not, then you are part of the problem.

Even though you were never a bully, if you had made no attempt to prevent your fellow team mates from bullying, or at least confronted them with it, telling them that they are wrong, if you haven't done that, then you are part of the problem, even though you were never a bully yourself.

Yeah, I know, that's suppose to be the coaches job.

But it's also up to good athletes like you to set an example as well, and to also remind your fellow team mates when they are wrong, at the very least.
The athletes I know will often make a remark about someone like "that kid's a faggot", and I will tell them, "he's not so bad" or "I know him and he's actually a decent guy". Most of the time, it is someone who does like sports too, only they are not part of the jock clique or have other interests besides sports.

Most cliques ARE jocks. Jock is a stereotypical name for athletes. I wish I destroyed the earth...

When I called the city bus system Sun Metro (actually SCUM METRO) they informed me that it was the Don Haskins SPORTS CENTER (actually the Don Haskins NAZI HEADQUARTERS) who had made the request to SCUM METRO that the benches be removed.

That's because they don't want to see either old people, or cripples like myself, sitting down on benches in front of their precious SPORTS CENTER, because we make them look bad!

They would prefer that we stood at attention at the bus stop in the summer heat while waiting for a bus.

They would probably like it even more, if there was no bus stop there at all, which is across the street from Walgreens pharmacy, so that we would have to walk about three blocks further up Masa Street to another bus stop instead.

The Sports Establishment runs this donkey-cock-sucking-asshole-fucking-backwards redneck piece of trailer-trash town!

You owe me! JIMBO!!!

Not quite. We don't have anti-matter technology as of yet.

Perhaps someday, but not yet!

So, an atomic bomb will have to do!

Hi, SportsGuy92. Iâ??m glad that youâ??re still posting here. Even when your comments are critical, I still enjoy reading your posts because you are reasonable and have a decent attitude. And I completely understand the problem you have with limited computer access. I share a computer with my wife and our two daughters, now that our older daughter is spending the summer with us before she returns to the city where she earned her degree in math and begins teaching at one of the high schools. We have to take turns using the computer.

Posting messages at a website does not seem to be the most effective way to communicate. Since there is no voice inflection or facial expression (not to mention general body language), the potential for misunderstanding is increased. Earlier this year I learned this the hard way, and ended up having to apologize in a post to a complete stranger. I think sometimes our differences are magnified by the medium that we are using to communicate with each other. I think that my viewpoint is not far removed from your own. Iâ??d say that the differences you and I might have are actually rather trivial.

I'm glad that you told me about what your head coach did. Band students at my high school and other schools in the district were often dismissed by some of their classmates as "band fairies." I know that because I happened to be one of them (a band student, not a fairy). :mrgreen: Your coach knows that respect is a two-way street. I deeply appreciate his attitude. May his tribe increase. :)

Hope you donâ??t mind if I tell you one reason why I have such a hard time dealing with arrogance. To tell you why so that you will understand, I will have to talk about my dad. He did not have an easy time growing up. He really did not have a father because his mother was married five times. His mother was a character in both the irksome as well as the amusing sense of the word. He nearly dropped out of high school because he had a terrible stuttering problem. Fortunately, he had several friends who encouraged him to stay in school; and as a result he became an extremely successful architect whose friends included an astronaut and a future President of this country. But he remembered his humble background and never became arrogant. He never had to lecture me about arrogance; he taught by his own example. In the spring of 1964, I was a 7th grader in junior high; and I got picked on a lot. One school day I came home in a really bad mood; and I snapped at the first person who met me at the front door, which happened to be the black lady my parents had hired to work for them as a maid. That evening when my dad found out what had happened, he was furious with me; and I almost got punished. If I had called her the n-word (which I never would have done to her or any other black person), I definitely would have been punished. He told me that she was in no position to defend herself and that I should not be disrespectful of her. Remember that racist attitudes against blacks were widespread in 1964; so, my dadâ??s defense of this black maid was remarkable. My dad never looked down on those who had humble occupations. He even once said that he did not care if I became a ditch digger, just as long as I did my job well. He could just as easily relate to garbagemen as well as CEOs. He was even self-deprecating. He would always joke about his â??pigeon legs.â? He would speak of arrogant people as being â??too big for their britches.â? Yes, I do recognize that there are arrogant people in all walks of life (including architecture, as my dad once told me).

Iâ??ll have more to say in another post when I have time to write. Since you are not arrogant and you obviously are concerned about the feelings of others, your father should be proud of you.

Good evening Earl.

I'm sorry, but I just got to say this . . . . .

I would like very much to see a total ban on sports, because sports is still wrecking my life for me!

Also . . . . . I don't care how polite Mr.SportsGuy92 is. Just by virtue of his being involved in sports, he's also responsible for wrecking my life.

Thanks to sports, and the athletic elite that rules over El Piss-hole Texasshole I now have to sent twice as much time out in the hot summer sun when I go out to do my grocery shopping.

Some low-life scum-bag drooling moronic hunch-backed knuckle-dragging monkey-boy can rape our sisters and daughters and he gets away with it, and gets a pat on the back from his coach, and a new 5 million dollar per year contract just for chasing a ball, and a brand new car for free!!!

But I can't even sit on my fat ass on a bench while waiting for a bus!

Not unless I'm willing to go much further up the street, and walk twice the distance between the pharmacy and the supermarket where there are some benches to sit on while waiting a much longer lime in the sun for a bus.

My arthritis has been troubling me even more than usual, and I have to sepd twice as much time in the sun. I have fair skin, a light complexion, so I really can't spend too many hours in the sun.

But thanks to sports, and to all the sports lovers out there, I'm literally being slowly tortured to death!!!

And sports is the cause of the declining quality of education in our schools, and the reason why my life is so thoroughly fucked up!!!

I believe that all those involved in sports, an absolutely evil endeavor, should be charged with treason, and if found guilty, they should all hang!!!

ON A SHORT ROPE!!!

I'm tired, and I have to go out tomorrow to stock up on groceries. What use to be a reasonably pleasant trip is now a journey through the ninth circle of HELL!!!

Maybe you can rest for a few minutes in your store! At least it won't be as hot right?
