  1. Don't many adults in society feel the same way? Sense of entitlement? Where are the kids learning this from?
  2. Makes sense but to my knowledge they do not test for PEDs in the military and the corporate world (unless it appears to be a potential problem in the workplace). They used to test HS athletes in Florida and quickly ran out of funding. Florida tested for a year and spent over $100,000 to catch ONE user. Texas spent over $10 million over like 7 years and caught like 40. $10 million of taxpayer money.... Steroid test are not cheap and a lot of the stuff the kids may be using today (HGH) , are undetectable unless you are paying potentially hundreds or even thousands of dollars per test kit. The don't even know if the NCAA can afford to test for HGH.
  3. 39 times should probably have been a hint, dude is missing few nuts and bolts.... https://nypost.com/2018/02/16/deputies-called-to-suspected-shooters-home-39-times-over-seven-years/
  4. Yeah no school should be a school where kids would feel compelled to defend themselves. That part of Coral Springs and Parkland area is a very affluent area. Coral Springs High Schools over the last 5 years or so may have had a few individual shootings or code red gun threats, but I don't believe they were at Douglas. The other High Schools in Coral Springs have significantly different demographics and are more in the lower middle class, middle class arena. Here is some updated data on Coral Springs public High Schools: STONEMAN DOUGLAS HIGH Ethnic Breakdown School Totals White 1784 - 55.6% Black/African American 386 - 12.0% Hispanic 671 - 20.9% Multi-Racial 99 - 3.08% Asian 214 - 6.67% Native American or Native Indian 51 - 1.58% Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander 3 - 0.09% Total Boys 1626 Total Girls 1582 Total Enrollment Count 3208 CORAL SPRINGS HIGH Ethnic Breakdown School Totals White 494 - 16.9% Black/African American 1215 - 41.6% Hispanic 817 - 27.9% Multi-Racial 139 - 4.76% Asian 153 - 5.24% Native American or Native Indian 93 - 3.18% Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander 8 - 0.27% Total Boys 1519 Total Girls 1400 Total Enrollment Count 2919 CORAL GLADES HIGH Ethnic Breakdown School Totals White 612 - 25.0% Black/African American 819 - 33.5% Hispanic 769 - 31.5% Multi-Racial 101 - 4.13% Asian 87 - 3.56% Native American or Native Indian 46 - 1.88% Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander 7 - 0.28% Total Boys 1214 Total Girls 1227 Total Enrollment Count 2441 TARAVELLA J.

  5. Here is a link to all who lost their lives in this tragedy: http://interactive.sun-sentinel.com/parkland-shooting-victims/#nt=barker&bn=Barker 06 - In Case You Missed It
  6. The AD may have also been the wrestling coach and the geography teacher that was killed trying to help students may have been the cross country coach.
  7. Without getting into any personal details, I can tell tell you that I am close to individuals, friends and family members that have attended, currently attend and would/(would have) potentially be attending Stoneman Douglas High School. I am somewhat content with facts coming out and evolving with this case, but there are still a few key factors that I hope will be revealed in the coming days. I can say that some of this may have to do to with age and privacy. There is another key matter in this case that I hope will soon be revealed that theoretically may blow some of your minds, and for some it will really make you think about governing powers....
  8. In today's society, a unarmed security guard is helpless trying to protect thousands unarmed civilians in a confined area. Unfortunately, most mass shootings are in confined areas with lots of unarmed people that the shooter is very well familiar with. The odds are unfortunately in the shooters favor. When I pass by Stoneman Douglas , I usually see two police cars which I assume are there for the resource officers. I have know idea whether or not the officers were present.....Keep in mind Stoneman Douglas, has about 3300 students and is a fairly large campus and land area. I'll call you Zoe Boy to fill you in on some stuff.
  9. More about Coach Weiss in this tragic situation: https://heavy.com/news/2018/02/coach-aaron-feis-douglas-florida-shooting-victim-hero/
  10. This is really hard for me...I knew Coach Feiss and sometimes would talk to him at Publix. I also believe I may have coached one of the victims who I believe is listed as missing.... I have never seen so many local and national news trucks in Coral Springs/Parkland area I can tell everyone that this situation is a lot deeper then what you are seeing on the news. There is a lot of investigating going on right now that will be confirmed in the coming days. I will just let it come out in the news.
  11. McArthur has hired former Miramar HC and recent 2017 Hialeah HC Pierre Senatus. More from David Furones and the SunSentinel here: http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/highschool/football/broward/fl-sp-mcarthur-senatus-20180212-story.html
  12. Columbia basically passed on the Don Shula, Bill Parcells and Bill Belichik of Florida HS Football in a short time frame..Is Columbia officially cursed because of this?
  13. When UF left Lake City for Gainesville these were ColumbiaHighFan's words for the administration in town:
  14. I can't say that for sure, but I sure am not about to argue that Columbia would not have a much larger trophy case...
  15. What is interesting is Deerfield Beach, Ely, Miramar, Dillard in 2017 all probably had a lot more inbound transfers then STA yet no one cares about transfers when teams don't dominate. Not sure if it is the principle of radical transferring in general that bothers people, or finding a excuse to slow down dynasties? No one cares about teams like Deerfeld Beach, Jones and Atlantic who probably had a combined 70+ talented transfers last year..... No one cares....Just saying.
  16. Some teams make mistakes and burn bridges....Columbia burns Dynasties!
  17. To prove the Columbia Tigers are the Cleveland Browns of FL HS Football with personnel/coaching mistakes, and to make them look more foolish , are you aware that besides not hiring Gene Cox, and firing Paul Quinn, they also lost ties with Paul Quinn's Asst. HC. Some guy by the name Bill Castle who went to Lakeland with Quinn and the rest is history! Brilliant!
  18. Then no more killer Bs...Larry Gergley would likely be correct. I can't hang with you guys going north of Palm Beach...
  19. The Killer Bs 1. Bill Castle (Lakeland) 2. Byron Walker (Archbishop McCarthy) 3. Bill Gierke (Orangewood Christian)
  20. Is #3 is Bill Gierke (Orangewood Christian) ?
  21. 1. Bill Castle (Lakeland) 2. Byron Walker (Archbishop McCarthy) 3. You got me....
  22. What you are saying makes sense but most articles you read on it always gravitate to HS football... Even when examples are provided on how HB 7029 works , they use football and not from the sports section of the publications. http://extracredit.blog.palmbeachpost.com/2016/10/04/taking-the-edge-off-floridas-new-open-enrollment-rule/ http://www.tbo.com/sports/preps/new-law-creates-free-agency-in-florida-high-school-athletics-20160414/ http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/highschool/os-sp-hs-transfer-comments-0812-story.html http://www.pnj.com/story/sports/high-school/football/2017/08/05/how-transfer-policy-impact-athletes-programs-state/538730001/ http://www.jacksonville.com/sports/high-schools/2016-03-11/story/high-school-sports-could-be-poised-big-change-passage-school http://www.newsherald.com/sports/20160702/new-bill-transforms-transfer-rules It may not have been this board , but I can swear I remember other posters hoping this bill is going to pass and they believed it was going to change the landscape football powers around the state. I remember going back and forth with them because I did not feel much would change.
