Thats why I'm so over politics...none of them have a lick of sense about what is best for everyone but rather just what is best for them and their cronies...I view politicians like coaches that get into administration...most forget where they came from and why they got into the profession...

Until recently I never realized how important a free, independent, and sometimes adversarial press is to the continuation of this great country. Our scepticism of government is warranted. The free press will eventually uncover most of the truth. It is then up to us as citizens and voters to separate fact from fiction. "Teaching students how to think, not what to think." Problem is the "free" press has an agenda just like everyone else.

Too many people believe everything they're told....it takes way to much effort to think for yourself. If a celebrity says it it must be true.

You can't be talking about the , "If it's on FOX news it must be true" crowd also. 180*

I love you guys. But, I want you to look at a big picture. Time for reflection. As coaches we are generally conservative in our thinking. We also think our programs are more important than the rest of them. (I wouldn't hire a teacher or coach that didn't feel that way). I too felt that way. When you move to admin you now are an advocate for all programs and are very wrong to pick winners and losers. The popular, loud, and overbearing ones are also the ones in your ear. Your job is to advocated for all kids, not just the privileged and talented ones. Are you strong enough to stand up for the poor, silent, and disenfranchised? My political philosophy has shifted as my role has changed. The greatest shift in wealth this country has ever known occurred during the decade after the Clinton years. I am hugely concerned the middle and poorer classes are in for a long four years.

this is funny. Bernie is the biggest phony out there. Talking about paying your fair share yada yada yada. Dude owns like 3 houses and a bunch of sports cars and then to top it off it comes out that he pays less in taxes than Trump does.

Isn't that what is usually said in this situation?

No problem with being rich, but he ain't wealthy. He has fought for the same things, and against the same things, since he was a mayor, so he is who he says he is. And he isn't bought and paid for. As a great friend once told a brilliant person, troll elsewhere.

I like how Shaq Daddy said it. Shaq said he gets paid a ridiculous amount of money. He has all the toys, cars, and houses he will ever need. He is rich. The guy that can sign his check, and many like his, is wealthy.
