Needham Girls HS Hazing

[Unregistered]

Wrong again. The Patriots League does give scholarships these days.

Not all of them do.

But the action must involve harassment or humiliation and if you don't feel harrassed or humiliated, how can that be hazing?

Do NOT pursue that law career you were thinking about.

It's a PC world and if the government tells you you should feel harrassed and humiliated, then you gotta do what the government tells you. Plain and simple. There's no gray areas, only black and white. Like the kid that brought the Lego gun to school. He broke the rule. Gotta pay the price.

Or how 'bout the latest? The 3 year old that twice set off the scanner at the airport because she wouldn't go through without mommy Rule says, set the scanner off twice and automatic pat down. Surprised they didn't strip search the little terrorist.

Also, do NOT believe the clearly-biased claim by the lawyer/business partner of the coach that his daughter or any other hazed person willingly participated in this or thought that everything was okay.

There appears to be a lot of coercion going on here and it smells very fishy.

Simple rule of thumb --- putting a dog collar on another person is never ever a good idea. It is wrong, wrong, wrong.

Ritualistic hazing of this sort is never okay.

It was done on a field regularly used by the team. It is not merely a private action unrelated to the school, coach, soccer program, or school administration.

Fumigate the program!

That's right! Don't believe him or any of the other parents that said the same thing. Their thinking has been corrupted by their selfish need to see their daughter's play and possibly win a meaningless soccer game. They have no idea what their daughter's really felt about the incident. I mean, even if their daughters told them it was no big deal, who can believe them? They were pressured into this by manipulative seniors who have had all season to brainwash them.

One way or the other this poor horse has got to be sent to the glue factory, it can not be beat any longer. Leave it alone for god sakes, you people could argue who is right or wrong for a decade. LET THE KIDS MOVE ON.

Tell that to the Needham parents who won't let this die. The more they continue to drag this on, the more people will talk about it here.

Huh??? Didn't you just do the same to keep it going? Really, it's over and done with so move on to another topic.

Getting his club team ready for the season.

Will he be the Needham HS coach next season?

He is a townie. He will admit to no wrongdoing but agree to take an anti hazing course and sign something that he will be a good boy from now on. Maybe a suspension for the opening game next fall to make sure he "gets it"

No doubt being a townie helped him get the job and keep it to this point. He probably cooked his goose by having his best friend go to court to overrule the principal. He has a year to year contract which makes it real easy clean for all for him to leave.

Did you read the article yesterday that was posted here? Did you see how the Needham parents are continuing to drive this at the School Board level? Did you see their quotes? It is not over and done with. They will not let it go and they continue to drag their daughter's through this mess.

As I said, as long as they continue to keep this alive (and keep it in the press), we will continue to talk about it.

I can only guess that you are from Needham. If you are, go talk to those parents and tell THEM to drop it.
