I guess your son enjoys playing the violin in a windowless room. Perfect for Sidwell.

Only the mentally challenged and unrefined spend their waking hours pounding pigeon breasts bragging about football. Continue your childish/adult foolishness. Football and sports are the only things defining your life and worth. A pity indeed.

Hip, hip, Hoorah. Let's down another keg.

Stereotype much?

I think it's a disgruntled parent. The diction and style reads like an adult in their mid-40s early 1950s. Obviously obsessive regardless of age

Sounds like a sharp student from Sidwell has the better of you all

This thread has been going for two years. I promise you, high school kids move on (or, if you want to look at it another way, they have shorter attention spans). The original poster is an adult. From the level of anger at Sidwell, probably someone connected to the Sidwell community (e.g. angry parent who didn't like kid's experience in sports or something similar). Probably the parent of a boy, too -- when they discuss sports at Sidwell they focus only on a handful of boys' sports.

Watching those episodes of "Matlock" is finally paying off.

Matlock has been off the air for 17 years -- your honor, I rest my case!

Uncle Rico: How much you wanna make a bet I can throw a football over them mountains?... Yeah... Coach woulda put me in fourth quarter, we would've been state champions. No doubt. No doubt in my mind.

Have you ever heard of re-runs? Or maybe this yenta has a great memory watching those episodes the first time around.

Then there is Ms Matlock. She spends her time looking for tigers under her sheets. She surfs through anonymous posts trying to guess the size, age, gender, ethniciity, race, income, schooling and significant other of who wrote it. Her guesses number in the thousands ... and counting. I have heard her only true love in life (besides tigers) is to get into the Guiness book of world records for guessing and speculating.

I have heard her only true love in life (besides tigers/tigresses) is to get into the Guiness book of world records for wild and wolly speculations and guessing all over this Board. The habit was her downfall in school leading to poor grades, failure, and no job in or out of the home.

I love that the "Matlock" poster clearly tried to edit his/her first attempt to make it funnier and that it resulted in a double-post.

This is one odd thread in a forum full of oddities.

Why, if your kids are at Churchill, are you posting here at all?

Sidwell sports suck. End of thread.

And before we jump to conclusions, at least 3 of the SFS athletes mentioned have attended since elementary age.

I think that the Sidwell parents (and everyone else) are saying that they are pretty tired of this two-year old thread. This old horse (or is it pigskin?) is past glue already!
