Our state has an assn for jocks for the finals and stuff called the PIAA.We asked for additional funding over our 5K and the pat on the head and the response was "your activity is not involved in the PIAA".We said WTF or sumpin like that and asked "does the PIAA fund the school???????They had no answer ...........so we went to the local paper and a month later we got more bux .........SPEAK UP..........it works .........stop being a total geek.Start asking why the jocks get funded and you dont at the school board meeting and your township meeting.

Tell them our future and technolgy is in what we do ..........not in a jockstrap.Simple statement but true.

I know, it doesn't take much to play football or whatever really, just brawns (sp?). I'm gonna send this thread to all the enginners and whatnot, because I can't print stuff out on the computer I'm on. I was planning on comfronting my principal or assistant principal before about this bias thing. I never heard of the PIAA. "Tell them our future and technolgy is in what we do ..........not in a jockstrap.Simple statement but true." that speaks a lot in just what you said. Thanks for your replies and such. As soon as Monday comes, I'm gonna see whoever high authority represenitive (sp?) I can, and speak to them.
