Scandal!!!

That's right Readers:

You saw it here first--at least I don't think it's been in The Loon Times yet. I mean about the kids, about football. OK, the team has lost it's first three games of the season and they only just barely have enough players to qualify, but I've never heard of this before.

The high school kids say they're tired of football. The entire team quit. I think Coach has them talked into playing out the season. The student council met and did something called an economic feasibility study and decided it would make more sense to go with the county's plans for an aquatic center. (The student council?) Then they could have co-ed swim teams, all kinds of Red Cross training, water aerobics. "Like everything," Shelby Johnsen says. And Shelby's the starting quarterback! "No guy ever gets his face or his knees all wrecked up swimming," according to Shel. He also said a survey in High School Intramural Magazine claimed chicks like swimmers' bodies best of all athletes.

Out of the mouth of babes, and Shel is, I'd say. Be interesting how the rest of the town reacts to this. The student council says the new aquatic center would fit nicely where the football field is now. When did high school kids start doing economic feasibility studies anyway?

So, thanks for coming by and sharing the shock.
