[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do we expect students to act better at a football game than in school?[/quote] First of all, being an athlete is a privilege, not a right. Second, the purpose of athletics beyond physical well being is sportsmanship. Third, students fighting is dangerous. Someone can get badly injured. Students should not be fighting in school or in sports. However, fighting in sports can and should come with penalties such as expulsion from the team on the first offense. [/quote] Not one administrator really cares about the kids.[/quote] Hilarious bad take for this incident. The video clearly show the Northwood principal right on the sidelines calming the players and breaking the fight up. Same principal who is on the sidelines every game cheering even as the team gets badly beaten. I was there and both school’s staff did an excellent job ending the conflict and getting everyone out safely. It ended up being a sad situation for the players but no safety concerns for anyone. Unfortunate what happened to the kids but this really isn’t a big story. [/quote]
