[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]23:08 says this poster keeps coming back with this 2010 Patch piece.  I can only assume 13:36 is the same person who somehow is so vested in the rivalry that she keeps 2010 issues of the school newspaper around or saved on her computer.  Bizarre.  To remind:  here's what 23:08 said which can be repeated again.

"OMG you save this one cite and parade it out every single time Langley is mentioned. It's ridiculous. You mean you can't find an article about the last food fight in the cafeteria? But please let's not blow anything out of proportion."

I'm not familiar with this article but the Patch piece smacks of yellow journalism to me.  If this stupid piece gets pulled out every time there's a McLean/Langley debate then clearly someone has a need to slam Langley students by posting old examples and slandering the entire student body with it.   How can the Langley students respond to that incident fairly now?

I agree that Bobbi was the one to start with the race-baiting.  She could have written that entire piece without inferring that the Langley students (all 10,000 of them who have graduated since then) are racist.  They aren't and I find this unfortunate that someone has a need to keep reprinting something from a rag almost 3 years old.

Can't we focus on something more important?  Like finding the guy who killed the 16 year old McLean girl last night?  Or finding some good in the Langley student body?  Or praise the principal for ending that color day thingy?

I thought it was very nice when both Langley and McLean kids joined together to raise money for the daughter of the Langley basketball coach after she was diagnosed with cancer last year.  [/quote]

There was also a huge outpouring of love when one of the girls on the Langley volleyball team found she had bone cancer.
