Couple of updates from previous stories...

  • Another manifestation of the big stadium scam in this country:  St. Louis, the state of Missouri, and the county still owe over $150 million to pay for a domed stadium which now has no purpose.  Legislation is in the works which may demand teams which leave before the payoff is done to deal with that problem, according to Deadspin.
  • Also on Deadspin:  When this story came out about the sexual assault hazing at a Tennessee high school basketball team, I began to wonder if the best course of action might be abolishing the high school outright.  Today's charges against the coaches and athletic director of the school make me certain that some sort of reorganization and redraw of the school districts is probably required.  The AD, who is an assistant principal of the school, "Tank" (the head coach), and an assistant coach got criminal warrants for failure to report (child sexual abuse).  SHUT THE FUCKING SCHOOL DOWN.
