Petition to move Atlanta MLS team for Georgia High school football

Make sure you read the comments after the petition.  Some are pretty priceless.  I honestly think that Booger wrote the majority of them.

For ONCE, soccer might cause football to move a game instead of the other way around.

"Problem
A tradition the residents of the state of Georgia hold near and dear to their hearts is the Georgia High School Football State Championships being held at the State's premier football venue on the second Friday and Saturday in December. Unfortunately, In July, the GHSA was strong armed into agreeing to postpone the state Championships until the following Tuesday and Wednesday, in the event the Atlanta United were to host game 1 of the MLS Cup finals. This decision was made without properly consulting the tax paying voters of the state.

Unfortunately, The Atlanta United are likely to advance to the MLS cup finals, where Game 1 will be held at at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Saturday December 8th. 

This clear injustice is an attack upon many of the hard working men and women of the state in rural areas who look to support their local community, as many of these people cannot take off work during the week to travel to Atlanta. This blatant oppression of these people is a monstrosity and a gross overreach of power."

    • Yes this process is moving slower than I would have expected
    • also was told coady auston applied, he served as defensive coordinator for greenfield under don pitt several years ago before going to Obion county  
    • TSSAA restrictions for hiring non-faculty coaches have been removed for over a year at this point. In the past a non-faculty person had to be "grandfathered" by being an assistant coach for five years, being fingerprinted, and having a background check run per TSSAA rules... since those were rescinded, the board of directors for the school district are responsible for any/all restrictions on hiring non-faculty personnel. I guess what I'm saying to you is that if you really wanted what you posted, it's already possible as long as your local BOE will allow for it.
    • stop it, rlh. you’re gonna get me all misty eyed and sentimental.    i see seven fairly regularly. ….but slim shady, that’s like spotting bigfoot on main street. you just hope he doesn’t spot you. 
    • Are you trying to say you didn't find Seven and ShadySlim going at it?
