Sports I lustraded

Down in the Dallas / Ft. Worth area of Texas there is trouble brewing for the administration of Trimble Tech High School. The Star Telegram reports that not only were girls allowed on the football team's bus during a trip to a tournament in Granbury, but they treated the boys to a "Girls Gone Wild" show while one of the players played photographer with another boy's camera cell phone.

Eleven of the boys have been assigned to an alternative campus for 45 days, yet the coach got a one game suspension and some super secret punishment the administration and the coach won't talk about. Some parents and local pastor Kyev Tatum, are rightfully outraged.

"It's discriminatory, if you ask me," said Tatum, a 1984 graduate of Trimble Tech and president of a school alumni association. "All of those boys who were suspended were black, and the coach is Anglo, and he comes right back? What are you saying when you only hold the students accountable? Not everyone involved in the process is looking at the impact this is going to have on those kids."

No one is really sure what role coach Doug Steward in all this was because the administration refused to say and no criminal charges have been filed. The Star-Telegram goes on to say:

"Paul Galvan, the Fort Worth school district athletic director, determined Steward's punishment. Galvan said he considered Steward's excellent record with the school district and at Trimble Tech. Galvan also said Steward was given other punishment in addition to the one-game suspension. He declined to reveal other measures but said options available to him were probation and a reprimand in his personnel file."

Cool. So if I'm the coach and I have a great record I can let the boys run loose and film their own "Girls Gone Wild" with underage teenagers when my team travels and the only punishment I can expect is a day off and a note in my file?

If it was the science teacher or the drama coach they would have been fired. Anyone disagree?
