Attack... Bullying doesn't turn into a broken neck.

This was a bit overboard. This coming from someone that thinks hazing is a right of passage for young men. Keeps things in order and builds character. It's how we toughen up young men. Reporting hazing is the same as tattling Tattling is a weakens character and softens young men.

Today you can't say or look in the wrong direction without fear of discipline...

Attack. Two game suspension- are they kidding. They should have been kicked off the team and arrested for assault with a deadly weapon. Coaches should have been suspended and possibly fired

PR. There is light hazing and rights of passage, however too many times it carries over to sadistic and gratuitis abuse. Entrusting teenagers to manage any kind of ondoctrination is foolish and abdication on the part of the adult coaches

Enterprise is a very small town...It wasnt hazing...it wasnt in fun....
Should have read some of the idiotic comments justifying the attack and whining that now they'll lose the games...that were deleted...
School is running scared...I imagine this article will 'disappear soon'....

Nope...not yet anyway

I am sure the mother of the victim has heard from many attorneys already. They have quite a case against the boys and the school district. She also should be all over the local da about charges

Attack.

Someone, or a couple of someones should be heading into court system. Unless momma gets bought off (for nothing less than 6 figures, if she has a brain in her head)
