Kuddos to the Aberdeen school board to back their girls basketball coach, Dawn Seiler, after a group of parents went after her. It would have been easy to succumb to parental pressure but instead, the elected school board said, we hired her, we stand by her. She is a successful coach, and after her 26 years of being in education (she is a high school assistant principal also) and coaching, she must be doing something right!!!!! According to news reports it sounds like she was not given a blank check by the school board to continue on as she has, so a little compromise is understandibly in order. I hope things work out in Aberdeen. What is that sportsmanship thing, Let the players play, the coaches coach and the fans cheer!!! Coaches have lines they cannot cross, parents and fans should also understand where their line is. Other school boards should take a note on what Aberdeen did last night, and made it public.
Also if you have watched the College World Series, you are getting to watch some of the best baseball on TV. There have been numerous home runs, alot of baseball drama, and once again, TV commentators that don't know when to shut up!!!!!!! LSU won last night's first game of the best of 3 series coming from behind twice to get the game into extra innings. Should make tonight's game better watching than the Twins, Cubs and yes, even the Yankees and Red Sox.
And Orin Burke of the Pierre A Teeners, an inside the park home run last night. The older you get, the less that has a chance to happen. Enjoy it.
