There just saying they have to pay their own way. Tough sell for a taxpayer supported program. It's why GSB states having to deal with the admistration approval is brutal. These school boards are elected by those tax payers. There is more to deal with than a few alumni and trustees. Lots of moving parts to account for.

If a young man is willing to give those things...he can be part of the TEAM. The way it has always been. Rufus>> I want to add to what Rufus just said. It is a total community effort in Colquitt County. Our Fanbase is loyal our fan by showing for the games at home and on the road. Our Fanbase in Colquitt county supports our team financially. When our new football practice facilities came up for a vote our county our loyal fan base are the ones that are approved by adding extra tax. And you can find former Packers all over the south that still travel back to Moultrie on Friday night to support our team. Logistically the families of the players on the team sacrifice a lot to make sure that these kids are transported to where they need to be early in the morning and late at night to be able to play ball. And if the families of these kids are not able to support them the community steps in and helps .....the coaches step in and help, but the kids who are willing to put in the work to play ball for the Packers have support in Colquitt County. Our kids are asked to pay .......and they pay a lot with The work they put in year round when most other teams are resting but they will never be asked to pay in dollars.

I don't need to convince you of anything so before you go off on a 40 post tangent decrying yourself the debate champion of prepgridiron, and expounding your superior knowledge over anyone who's thoughts don't mimic your own I will excuse myself from this thread a go craft you a gold star ⭐️ the point of my post was that there is not and never will be a monetary fee for kids wanting to play for Colquitt County. I never said we were the only ones you insinuated that that was what I said. Not falling for your bait.... have a great one! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell they signed up to play Buford so you know they ain't afraid of getting their butts whooped. And they got more than 20 kids and a stud. They got 30 kids and TWO studs. So you it will be a photo finish if they can make it to week 6. Lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 6 hours ago, HawgGoneIt said: Nah. He just enjoys the debate. His stance at excluding kids for football but being all inclusive socially in his political views is breathtaking. It's no debate. That implies reasoned discussion. All LOS does is state his position and then launch all the personal attacks. He can't seem to generate a complete post that addresses the complete thought someone else generates. Instead he take 4 or 5 words out of context, twists them to his satisfaction and then launches the insults. That is the true measure of a small mind. He can't carry on a conversation with insulting. His ego is so large he is a giant in his own mind. Too bad no one else thinks so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You show your ignorance with that statement. If you think for a minute that a trip like that could happen without school system admin approval, you are delusional. STA may be able to do something like that without diocese approval but a county school dang sure can't. There is so much jealousy between the have and have not programs within the county I hesitate to think about outcry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ararar Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Well I read the whole 12 pages and I'm going to have to agree with Los.It would seem that GA supports the everyone gets a trophy on this debate however we all know the real world doesn't work in that fashion.I like that the 25 kids now have to strap it up and work for it instead of being included just because they show up.The real world has to prove it with their work and not because they show up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There can't be 100 starters, but 100 kids can in fact put in the same work as the starters. That's the whole point. If they just show up and don't put in the work, you can bet your ass they won't be around long at all. Maybe in Cali and SoFl they have kids that just show up and dress out with no involvement. That's not how it works in Moultrie. Pretty sure that can be said for Grayson too. Maybe you guys definition of working for it is different than mine. Idk. Has to be the only explanation I guess.

Ok, but obviously the work they are doing is not good enough at this point or they would be on the field.In every day life the people who do the best work are the ones who get rewarded not the people who try hard but can't get it done.Not everyone gets a trophy the quality of your work earns it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
