Thank you all for the kind words, I worked with some incredible men and women who never got the credit they deserved but we didnt do the job for recognition we did it because it takes a certain type of person to get up every morning and work incredible hours dangerous assignments yet because of a few BAD APPLES in this Country Law Enforcement is a target verbally and Physically and we are the Military at home trying to keep cities safe but many dont understand that we arent the bad guys just because we write tickets and take them and or relatives to jail, theres a reason for that.
Im lucky to have 4 daughters who are athletes and I have been retired now 6 years two play Soccer and Two play Softball, matter of fact my youngest is on the header here at Heybucket.She plays on a Ohana Tiger Team and for me as a kid sports saved me and I can't imagine how tough this has been on many being locked down and especially the distance learning has been difficult for many of their friends whose parents are at work or they are the only child at home. The motivation for them to do their work every day just isnt there. My girls talk to many of their friends with Face Time and we have a couple of fantastic Teachers at our HS who on their own time have helped several young men and ladies who are struggling with grades and life. I dont think Newsome and these health workers making these decisions realize how the kids have been suffering for the past 11 months.
So being retired I am at home with them and I dont have to make sure they are doing their work because they have each other to help and talk to.Their travel soccer team shut down but I have been taking Bianca to Arizona often to play and not one of our team members have had covid, some were exposed and had tests and the team was idle for a bit. Social distancing is so easy at Softball events and I'm not a big believer in the masks as protection but I wear it so others dont get upset my daughters wear it and our TB Coaches take every precaution available when we practice or play.
So to have individuals who hide behind fake names come on this site and think their being the the tough guy at the keyboard chaps my hide. This is my real name some of you may even know me but Heybucket has been good to many not only for tryouts friendlies or tournaments but for sharing of knowledge others being able to answer questions for many. I am surprised they havent been permanantly banned but I'm guessing the moderators have more patience then Twitter or facebook .
Glad CIF was able to rescind their previous decision on going dark, this should help many 2021's who need to find a home the next few months as Oregon opened up to Youth Sports today I'm sure Newsome is being very vindictive because of the recall effort against him I even started the original petition of "Let Them Play" last Septemeber but only got 2415 signatures with over 28,000 views.It is still up on Change.org.
Good luck to all of you in 2021 hope you and your children have a safe and succesful year, see you all on the next Thread ...
