No Soccer Ball For You!

A Toronto school bans balls....'cuz it ain't got none!

Hey, you all know I think we've become a very weak minded society.

When we were in grade school we used to play soccer with a tennis ball. Soccer-hockey as it was called - with a chosen fence serving as goal. We'd set up four against four with the teams kicking at the one goalie. It so happens the best goalie died in grade six after being hit by a truck on the main boulevard not too far from our school. We all still remember Danny.

One day, my friend Nick kicked the ball and it sliced foul. And I mean waaaayyyyy foul. It was struck with such force it smacked a teacher on the side of her mouth square on the jaw sending her straight towards hell. We still joke about the "schlock" sound that resonated across the school yard. Watching the teacher get up in a daze remains pretty much a solid memory for us. She never knew what hit her.

Guess what?

We all went fucking on with our lives. No bull shit over reaction, bans and sensitivity garbage. Get your ass up, apologize, and go back to class.

Today?

Bunch of whiny, little wusses.

That school should import some tunbleweed and ban running while they're at it.
