High Ideals

Jurassic Referee:

You're right. Although I don't believe in the Tooth Fairy and Easter Bunny anymore, I do tend to see the "glass half-full rather than half empty" through my "rose colored glasses". Sorry, that's just me, and my love of interscholastic athletics.

Lets hope that some athletic programs strive to follow the high ideals of both the NFHS Coaches Code Of Ethics and the NFHS Mission Statement.

Billy, I love the high school game too. As well as the NCAA. I must be a glass half-empty, cynical old goof though. I've had my idealism pounded out of me over the years. Just reading some of the posts on this forum from some of the coaches and fans has a tendency to do that.

Note that I did say "some". There still are great coaches and fans out there who do think like you. Unfortunately, imo they are greatly out-numbered anymore.

If it'll make you feel better.....Faith, trust and pixie dust.
