A local high school principal has decided to forfeit his school's soccer team's victory during the State wide championship tournament because the players did a victory dance (in imitation of the resident professional football team ) and the other team's players' parents complained it was poor sportsmanship and showed up their boys.
This pathetic, yet hilarious in a macabre sort of way, action and reaction is illustrative of what's wrong with our society, at least some aspects of our crumbling civilization.
Poor sportsmanship in emulation of the millionaire would be felons a/k/a NFL football players...distraught parents over the fact their tender and sensitive young ones may have been traumatized by the rub it in their nose celebration they had to witness due to their inability to beat the other team. (They were no doubt also disappointed over the fact that they wouldn't be doing their own victory dance.)
Who to be upset with?
Wuss parents...
Spoiled players...
Intolerantly tolerant principal...
NFL meat head thugs...
...and as our society crumbles like a spineless back, yet another god is killed off as we learn today that Joe Paterno whose over sized head would appear on the college football Mt. Rushmore were there one, will retire at the end of the season. This comes after revelations that a staff member was charged with raping children in the school shower and other staff didn't report anything amiss and good old Joe didn't know what was happening, although he is in total control of everything that happens with his team. http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/7211674/penn-state-nittany-lions-coach-joe-paterno-legacy-sullied-wake-sandusky-scandal
Then again, he's a hundred and something years old so maybe he is unaware of what's happening.
...and mother of mercy is this the end of Rico? as Edward G Robinson asked at the end of Little Caesar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEiOjH0v0oM&feature=related
or in this case, Herman Cain?
More on Herm next time.
