A judge would laugh that out of the court room but I am sure there is a lawyer who will gladly collect some money for whatever yahoo wants to try to file that lawsuit.

The reality is indoor sporting events are far more difficult to manage and mitigate risk due to people being unwilling to follow simple protocols so the athletes can play. I have been to a couple of HS wrestling matches and fans wear mask in then take them off. If watching student athletes is so important then follow the protocols. 
 

A judge may very well laugh at such a claim but a good attorney that can get a jury trial is dangerous for the TSSAA.  No one ever knows how a jury will react unless someone passes them a few envelopes.

Not sure if they do or not but I am very surprised that they are allowing Wrestling.  I would think of all the sports that wrestling would be the most risky for kids.

If done correctly wrestling can be in my opinion one of the safest. Record practice partners everyday, limit practice partners to 1-2 other kids, you know exactly who each kid wrestled in a dual meet so very limited contact tracing needed. With basketball especially, but even football you are face to face with a different person 30 or more times during the course of a game or practice. Maybe I am biased and I understand that the "extremely close contact" is definitely alarming but wrestling out of the three sports I mentioned is definitely "exposing" the least amount of kids in my opinion

You didn’t answer my question. On what grounds would they sue? 
 

I have spoken to multiple TSSAA officials across the state and there have been discussions and it is well within their jurisdiction to do so.

  Actually, it is not in their jurisdiction. The lock downs themselves are unconstitutional. Period! If you or anyone else don't understand this then you are a slave to the system.

Heck, we both know for a fact of a lady that shot another lady (wife ) in Columbia after she got boot stomped for messing with her husband. Wife got shot on the toilet after the fight. Her lawyer (defended Jerrry Lee and Jimmy Hoffa, not kidding) got her off on self defense. Good Lawyer can do a lot! And envelops ain`t the only thing she was known for:thumb:

Listen to this when you get a chance.  Roy D. Mercer stole his material from the "real" Leroy Mercer, a guy named John Bean.   

Do a Google search and look him up.  Funny guy, RIP John Bean.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
