    • The reference to communism- a very real threat in 2025 given the fact that the three largest cities in the country all figure to have communist mayors come November- applies to Bridgewater's situation because his voluntary donations are a problem only because he wanted the funds to go as he sees put, rather than given to another entity which will distribute funds equivalently (after having fraudulently "lost track" some portion of them). And, related, is the fact that other opposition to Bridgewater is rooted in the desire to see all schools have an equally distributed share of talent, which is much less likely if benefits are dispersed unequally. All of this is being addressed through the awful, communist "equity lens". It should be noted that the communist or "equity" based approach denies any and all outcomes that are not even on the grounds that they are necessarily disciminatory. When executed with fidelity, the "equity" approach means the score at the end of all games must be equal. Stupid and insane? Obviously. But, it's true.
    • The dude has no idea what the rules are and how things work. Its common sense that If a school can hire a volunteer coach, then they can also fire or suspend a volunteer coach. Now it makes complete sense why he self-incriminated himself by posting a message that included fhsaa rules infractions. I mean c'mon man. 
    • TFA was doing way more than just a few slap on the wrist actions.  They are recruiting around the state and haven't stopped.  MNW probably has an outcry because a coach did it out of the kindness of his heart and love for the kids.  Hard to look at that in the same way as TFA which is all business and gives zeros shits about their kids. To be fair, TFA kids give zero shits about their school as it is a mutual business decision.  However, rules are rules and Teddy broke the rules so consequences are due no matter the intent.
    • I know "communism" is a common scare word brought up in the political world just to easily dismiss any ideas of a shared revenue concept.  In the world of sports, uncapped spending creates a great divide in competitiveness and hurts the sport overall.  If we didn't have any type of distributed money from the government, only a few schools could afford to field a team.  Football is incredibly expensive compared to other sports.  The big programs do in fact have a huge budget advantage over the field despite the shared revenue anyway.  The solution to this is actually to do whatever other states are doing to fund their programs.  Georgia coaches make serious money and coaching is a legit career there.  How do they afford it while Florida sucks ass?
    • The question i have is & im being serious when I ask this ; what is the difference between northwestern & the first academy.    because the first academy got hit with one of the harshest punishments ive seen recently for doing basically the same thing. Paying for uber rides & other incentives to the players in need & for a lot of the transfers that transferred to TFA but didn’t have transportation to & from.    & there was NO out cry. Matter fact everyone said TFA got what they deserved. But in MNW case it’s all hell broke loose. Is it because who the head coach is ? Or is it because teddy explained what all the money he spent was for ? …….
