No sir, actually I know the facts but thank you. I know all about the situation. Lol its pretty funny to listen to you though because I know the truth lol! anyhow! You could have been the one to be a stand up guy and give THE FACTS since ya'll are so quick to say that no one else has them!

actually, someone earlier in the post said that the media had done a bad job covering the situation. The media said that they were all seniors.. I didnt know if it was true! We did win thank you- a win is a win no matter who you play! I tried to be civil, my god. I am glad you are saying that I condem Ooltewah , I even wished you a good game. Sounds like you were making fun of Ridgeland .. theres not need for that.. I didnt say anything about ya'll. So I am glad you think I am a joke but you sound just as bad! ..... The situation is not going to go away so I might as well have the correct facts! If I was trying to "stir the pot" I would have said some other things .. but I didnt.

is it true that most of the 7 boys charged recently are seniors? Not trying to start anything I was just curious! But anyhow good luck to both teams! hope yall have a good game

I am terribly disappointed that the incident even occurred! I was at the game but I no longer attend Ridgeland. My friend on the other hand was the one who got his lip split and his sisters nose broken. I think it is alot easier to say drop it for those who were not directly involved. I know that it is over a month later and the effects are still taunting the victims (medical bills and such). As for those involved, I am glad the two who threw punches were arrested. I hope they are punished to the full extent of the law because what they did is illegal and for most just plain wrong. As for the other boys, I am disappointed that it took so long to make an arrest if that is what was planned all along. I believe they should turn themselves in and not be allowed to play with an outstanding warrant. I believe they knew what they were doing when they came and should take responsibilty for their part. If they are truly innocent then there should be no worries. But, I do know that they were there for a reason. A fight was the plan from the beginning just the wrong people got hit. I personally get irritated by the situation. I believe that those boys deserve serious consquences and I do not think that laps will cut it! The punishment needs to git the "crime" but it should also be tough enough to teach a lesson. Those boys came to Ridgeland with intent to cause problems. I am not saying I think they should be kicked off the team but I think that they should be suspended. There are those who will say by benching them , those who have a shot at college ball will loose it. I will respond to that with ... they should think more carefully about what they do. Yes, everyone make mistakes BUT there are always reprocussions and they will not be the only people to ever loose something because of their mistake. When you have important things on the line you should be careful of your actions They can still go to college and get a education (mean isnt that what college is really about). A lot of Ootlewah people will recognize me from their board earlier... sorry about all of that... emotions were high and now I am trying to think about this logically. Try and not be so negative about the way in which it was handled at the school. The boys were escorted to the gates ( I believe it should have been to their cars but). There was another incident in the parking lot that was being attended to between the boys being escorted out and the incident. The school tried their best. Their best is not always perfect or even correct but give them some credit. As for the Ridgeland students coming to Ootlewah... If it is true..I am embarrassed. I can not believe that they would do that. It makes them and the community look bad. It makes us look just as bad as those boys look to alot of Ridgeland people. Anyhow ...sorry I hope no one was offended

hey I just wanted to say that if Ridgeland people came to your school and tried to start something I am sorry! I can not believe that they would disrespect ya'll the same way we were disrespected. It sounds like the people would came up there were not even the ones effected by the first incident. Again, I am personally sorry. This makes me disappointed. That was no way to respond to the whole situation. Hopefully no one was hurt. I hope whoever it was is being dealt with in the proper manner. This makes us look just as bad as those involved in the first altercation. Gosh, i am baffled.
