Please advise.

Are there any other threads that discuss the merits of this? If not, should we discuss it here?
Do you think your principal will let you start a poker team. They play poker almost everyday on the biggest tv sports network in the world. So poker must be a sport. Also in the early years FIRST Robotics was on ESPN I have been told. LOL
