    It’s pointless to argue with somebody that doesn’t have any understanding of the two buckets financing system in Texas. If a district spent building money on teachers people would  be fired or go to jail or both. It’s stupid but 30 seconds of reading will help people understand why districts are making the choices they are. 

    Tell me about districts being mandated to spend money on curriculum adoption, billions worth, every few years, for every subject.

    I hope we get aggy in a regional. They are really good at home and suck on the road. 7-10 on the road and 25-6 at home. 

    Guessing their non conference was filled with home series vs shit teams again. 

    Road record probably is their conference road record, or close to it. 

    They do like to pad their numbers vs fluff and then brag about it.

    Either sarcasm or doesn’t know any teachers. Not sure which.

    Small amount of sarcasm. There’s lots of jobs where you work 50-60 hours a week and make 50k. Most of them don’t have special perks like mortgage products dedicated to them. Most of them don’t allow for 2 months of free time to use for vacation or earning more money. 

    We home school our kids. Should I be demanding federal funding to pay my wife for her time?

    my job, I believe, is important. I’d like to be paid more, but I don’t whine about how tough it is.

    Or all the hours spent grading and making lesson plans in addition to the teaching hours.

    It’s not like teaching hours add up to 40 a week. That leftover time is for feeding scantrons and glancing at the teachers edition textbook and making copies of worksheets.

  5. Is that a 30 day paycheck?

    precious little info other than the dollar amount. Deductions?  12 month pay schedule for 9 months of pay?

    guy could be maxing out a 401k and having child support withdrawn, plus an irs garnishment, then acting like it’s not his fault that the net is 1700. 

    I could read further, but I won’t.

    I've actually seen a Slippery Rock game, back in the 70s. They played Texas A&I. Javelinas steamrolled 'em, something like 69-2. The 2 was a blocked punt that went out of the endzone. I picked up the ball, because the whole thing happened not 10 yards from my on-the-field endzone seat.  Good times. Can't remember who the d-back was, but I witnessed a 105 yard interception return for a touchdown in that game, too. It's kind of surreal to see that from field level from the opposite end zone.  Looked a little like violent ballet.

    Darryl green?
