Buna High School Football- Please, Just Stop It.....

 My Facebook was full of gritchin' about the 2 point conversion at the game on Friday. 

Come on, the other team score 40+ points. Buna was sort of lucky they were still in the game. Traditionally, when a team score 40 points against you, the ballgame is over.  

What perhaps upsets me is that I don't see this kind of fire concerning what a school is supposed to supposed be about, academics. 

There were board members talking more about this, than anything other than propaganda about the school.  

Perhaps it is because there are non-Buna employees/citizens involved and are easy targets to blame? ( The referees)

The State of Texas can't get people to referee or umpire sports now. And I see why after this weekend. 

It you are so upset, go to a school and learn to umpire behind the plate, or be a volleyball line judge....They can use you.

People are losing their minds over a damn game. It's the, or should be, " The Toy Shop" of a school. 

Here are the number of kids I taught who made a long term made a pay for the rest of their life living playing a sport. 

1

That's out of about 3700 kids I have taught in my life. 

That is 0.027% of my students in a 31 year career. 

That percentage is the same amount as I have former students who are now Jewish Rabbis.  

Buna ISD can't even it seems, fund a CTE program. I figure the chance of a kid becoming involved in the restaurant, hotel, hospitality business is far greater than a kid playing ball for a living. 

In the end whether the team goes 10-0 or 0-10 and you being on that team, an employer could care less.  Can you cook? Can you cut hair? Can you weld? Can you fix a Toyota Corolla?

The school itself is a mess.  Don't tell me otherwise. People don't want to move to Buna for the academics. Heck, folks are leaving, old Buna surnames. 

Maybe you need to work on that first.
