Livingston is no joke. They are good basketball team. Dangerous when their shooters are hot -

Are you implying that someone on these teams is going to one day live in a garbage can? I give up. Who is it? -

Maybe we can see this data in a pie chart or a bar chart. Maybe a ppt slideshow? -

Kentucky HS to Change Mascot -Stallion is Sexist

I've never been offended when referred to as a stallion. -
What do you consider Middle Class? I understand it to be a combined family income $35-55k. Is that really that hard to accomplish? And before you say I wouldn't understand because I come from a privileged upbringing, I have family that live below the poverty line (less than 18k per household). But they made conscious, life decisions that got them in that situation.

Makes perfect sense. And good for you. We made the same decision for the same reasons. -
Pitching Limitations for HS
AthleticSupporter - Jock replied to bambam33's topic in High School Baseball
At one time, some experts thought the curveball was the main reason for arm and shoulder injuries. We also believed at one time that the Earth was flat and that the Sun rotated around us. If you care about children's health, do yourself a favor and read Andrew's book, Any Given Monday. Or I can hit the highlights of the last 30-40 years of studies. Pitch counts are a good start but plenty of athletes can handle greater number of pitches than others. I don't get freaked out when I see a mature 17-18 year old throw 150 pitches as long as his mechanics are great and he takes care of his arm the 4-5 days following. I also would like to see that high of pitches be the exception and not the norm. The 2 things that get most pitchers into elbow and shoulder problems are 1) Not enough rest in between outings based on how much they threw and 2) Not taking a break from throwing for 3-4 months each year to let the body heal.- 25 replies

Pitching Limitations for HS

Please tell me you are pulling my leg. You can't be serious. Have you even heard of the world-renown Dr that I mentioned? The best athletes in the world trust him with their bodies and their careers. Surely, you don't think that you know more than Dr. Andrews and 1000s of other Drs and researchers? Next you are going to tell me that smoking does not contribute to lung cancer. Come on man!- 25 replies

78 stang, what do you think is the problem with this thread? Many of the kids being discussed in the 2018 class already have multiple power 5 offers. I don't understand your gripe.

Could be the most uneducated post I've ever seen. Ignorance of medical evidence is one reason why these rules will now be enforced. Read up on Dr James Andrews and his research over the last few decades.- 25 replies

Who are the top 2018 area players
AthleticSupporter - Jock replied to Booster's topic in High School Baseball
Are you suggesting that enough emphasis is not placed on the fine are of Reading in the 337 area code? lol -
No need for them to be secret. UIL openly solicits donations and sponsorships, much like any other business. The UIL is not funded by our tax dollars or through government handouts. They are not required or even obligated to rotate locations. They go where the money is. And there is nothing wrong with that because of all the great things that the UIL does for students, teachers, sports, academics, etc throughout this great state. UIL is not perfect but they do a pretty good job. If you want to learn how they are funded and understand why AT&T makes the most business sense, here ya go: [Hidden Content]

If you are going to say player a and player b from wos should be on the offensive team, then step on up and say who should be taken off. If JD should have made it, then do you think RJ should be removed? If you got something to say, then by God, come on out and say it.
