MSHSAA policy on gaiters

Latest mshsaa directive . Gaiters are not to be worn during game. Understandably, a gaiter could be grabbed resulting in a horse collar type injury. Yet, per mshsaa guidelines, players have to wear a mask when not participating - example on the sideline. How are coaches going to deal with this? Where does mask/gaiter go when a player enters the game? How are they kept separate and clean. And if it’s ok to not wear a mask and tackle and block someone from an opposing team - is it really necessary to wear a mask on your own sideline?

the end of the world as we know it...

The Cardi B interview

We've been told that DJT is a reality TV star and not a serious politician. Not like Joe Biden. Or Barack Obama who did an interview with GloZell. GloZell is most famous for a bath in Cheerios.

Joe and Kamala since the announcement are going to public events and not answering any questions.

Except for Cardi B., I will admit she's Shakespearean, a seminal cultural figure, a brilliant political commentator.

Joe Biden gave an interview to Cardi B. Not Chris Wallace, Jake Tapper not the Keebler elf. This is deeply important for our time. A great Shakespearean. This goes like George Milton, Cardi B then Lord Alfred Tennison. Awesome.

I love the bucket and mop video Wap. Just outstanding. Then there's Joe. I mean who wouldn't do this interview?

He's a super, super serious candidate. The level of questioning. Wow.

Joe Biden " unlike black people, latinos think in a diverse way", bahahaha

Joe Biden never great, but now he's even less great. It's not his stuttering from childhood, because he overcame this. He's falling all over himself. He's not speaking English.

He can't string sentences together. I'm not saying he full-on senile but anyone looking can see he's declined over the last few months.

Right now, if Trump would stop saying stupid things for 5 seconds the focus of Biden's mental decline is big a factor.

Facism is

electing a DA who specifically says she's going to go after her political opponents. She said she was going to after the NRA and Trump and now she has.

Media are like oooh hero, what a hero.


She's not going after Wayne and or members of the board for fraud, she's going for the death penalty of the organization. All of us NRA contributors are complicit.

Covid relief bill what do you support?

I have a family member who was cut back to 32 hours a week, so he got the extra $600 a week on top of his one day unemployment and his 32 hours of pay. He used that extra money to go purchase a boat. Not sure that he really needed $600 but I also not sure he didn't deserve nothing? I just think giving $600 to everybody seems like over kill? But I don't know what the answer is because I know some could use the money?

Ava Backup Long Snapper Called “Cr***a” Record 35 Times

Read this Post in the “Lutheran North” thread

poor Kid during the Post game handshakes after the 49-0 beating by Lutheran North was called a CR***A by every Member of the LN Football team!!

Poster said, and I quote he is “100000%” certain his son was called a CR***A by the Class 2 State Champs.

This is not very Martin Luther-Like!!!
LN hasnt won a Championship since 1999 and calling this poor corn fed child CR***A was on their minds. Shameful MSHSAA should do something.

History of CR***A: Nickname given by slaves to their slave owners and others in authority, inspired by the “cracking” sound a Whip makes while being beaten.

Hardly something I would consider a Slur but MSHSAA should get on it!!!

School this Fall

Interesting Article. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/06/will-schools-reopen-fall/613468/

I will sum up. This whole situation sucks for every stakeholder involved in education.
My wife and I talk everyday and it seems to be, "But, How will they......". The more I keep hearing the more districts are giving parents the choice to choose to send or not to send.

You either turn a blind eye to the fact that children are going to be healthy through this even if they catch it, but knowingly are going to act as a swarm of bees/locusts in transmitting this disease to every corner of their respective counties and infecting those less fortunate
or......
you create a very complicated system for educating young people. The virtual schooling isn't a joke but it isn't far from it. Many districts didn't take grades, because of equity issues, which was a disaster for many. You can pass on basic low level skills, but collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, problem solving is very difficult through a computer. Kids are definitely experiencing a long term brain drain and obesity from lack of physical activity will get worse. No competition, teamwork, etc because there won't be sports if we are doing virtual or hybrid. Elementary kids are still learning the building blocks of life including socializing. Them missing a year in person will be devastating (let alone the logistics of leaving a 7 year old at home).

Pick your poison. It all sucks. I pick the first choice, have the kids wear masks and build a plexiglass pod for all the bus drivers, and hope for the best.

The long term ramifications of the depressed property values from homes and closed commercial real estate will be felt in a couple years when taxes are reassessed. That is a major long term problem.

It all sucks. Been waiting for my kids to get to middle school to participate in athletics and other extracurricular activities. At least they aren't seniors. I do think you will see parents reclassify their children (not sure if that would fly at the high school level) and it won't be just for sports, but actually make up for lost education.

tentacles of covid

7.23 Licking Camps VB in Rolla at the centre. I drove to see the v/jv teams where I will be teaching this year. Their first games began around 11:30 a.m. Once the first match was over, I moved to watch the remainder of the jv match before their next game. Before that game started the varsity head coach gathered the parents and took them outside, varsity players followed then junior varsity left along with the 200 or so gathered in the facility. The lower portion where the three courts are was cleared in less than 20 minutes per order of the Phelps - Maries County Health Department.

I was informed by a coach of one of the participating teams, the reason for the abrupt cancellation was a student who played (vb) last weekend had contracted COVID19. Student's team call them teamA played teamB last weekend. TeamB is/was participating in this camp, as a result the camp was cancelled. TeamA was not on the schedule for the camp this week.

Of those in attendance, I saw less than 10 wearing face coverings. Glad I had mine on.
