And just curious Coach Chass, are you questioning the Supreme Courts ruling?



On that specific ruling, absolutely. I see nothing in the wording of the amendment itself or in the historical context in which it was written to support that particular interpretation, only the political pressure brought to bear by more modern schools of thought.

For the record, I agree with Kitten that we are responsible for ALL of our players and students and shouldn't knowingly put them in positions where they may feel alienated. I also believe that if a team, as a group, asks in the huddle, "Coach, could you say a prayer with us" it's just as bad to say, "Nope, can't do it, that would be illegal."

I would also put forth that very few great things have ever been accomplished in this world without the possibility of maybe, somewhere, making someone of some particular school of thought somewhat uncomfortable. Just throwing that out there.

I've got good news and bad news...
