Jeez I thought my school was bad.:frown2:

We had quite a few last year, can't remember exactly how many. But one of my friends said about the stupidest things I've ever heard....

"Man, this shit is crazy. They need to get rid of that new health teacher, I mean like man, and bring back (Old health teacher, who was a administrator this past year). That way there wouldn't be so many girls pregnant walking around. There wasn't this many last year. You feel me blood?"

I couldn't get it through his head, that no matter what a teacher tells the kids, its still their decision. There is nothing a health teacher can do but tell them about it. And even thats limited what they can say and not say. The health teacher can't tell them whether or not to do it.

On a side note treat your new principal with respect. I'm excited he's going to be a Beechcroft. One of the up and comers, a good all around guy.

Did anyone else notice this:


Cutts, on administrative leave with the police department, is married and has a daughter with his wife. He has said he and his wife are separated and that she knew about his relationship with Davis.
Cutts also has a 9-year-old daughter with another woman, Nikki Giavasis, who now lives in Los Angeles. The two lived together for a while, but when she began seeing another man in 1998, Cutts was accused of breaking into her home while she was inside with former NBA player Shawn Kemp of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Cutts pleaded no contest to a disorderly conduct charge and was sentenced to three years' probation. Giavasis told police she feared for her safety. The pair are involved in a custody dispute.
Giavasis told The Associated Press they were together about four months, and confrontations began after she broke off their relationship. Giavasis said the two had several physical confrontations.

Kind of unrelated, but I love how the media is overlooking the fact that the dead women was a low-life. Yeah, I get knocked up by a guy who is still married and who was actually convicted of domestic violence in the past.

Dumbass.

Kemp's eldest son, Shawn Jr., making his own name

shawn.kemp.jpg

Though Shawn Kemp Jr. has had little contact with his father, he has his genes and could grow to be 7-feet.

PHILADELPHIA -- The kid was seated on the floor of a gym at Philadelphia University, a few minutes after his first game at the Reebok All-American Camp on Tuesday, when a man in an official camp polo shirt walked by and mistook him for a different high-school senior-to-be. "Dan Jennings?" the man said, but received only a strange look in return.
The man altered his inquiry. "What's your name, kid?"
"Shawn Kemp."
The man's look said B.S. "What's your name?"
"Shawn Kemp."
"You," the man said, slightly annoyed, "ain't Shawn Kemp."
And then the man walked away.
The kid, who was wearing a No. 71 jersey with no name on the back, was not perpetrating a ruse. While he is not the Shawn Kemp of Supersonics fame and paternal infamy, he is Shawn Kemp Jr., the eldest child of the former NBA forward, and one of at least eight kids -- with at least six different mothers -- fathered by the elder Kemp. Out of the Reign Man's scattered DNA has grown another power forward who has played his way onto the national recruiting radar.
Kemp Jr. is 17. He has the nose, the ears, and the forehead of his father, but junior's overall mien is friendlier. He is 6-foot-9. He has had only sporadic contact with his pops, and has been raised by his mother, Genay Doyal, in Marietta, Ga. He has a four-star rating from Rivals.com, and is ranked 83rd overall in the class of 2009. He has scholarship offers from Alabama, Georgia, Cincinnati and Ole Miss, and strong interest from Washington and Indiana. In the winter of 2009 he'll likely make his college debut, and in his first televised playing time, the network will surely show flashbacks of the first Shawn Kemp. "Some people say I play like my dad," Kemp Jr. said. "I do what I do, but I'm trying to be my own person, too."
Unlike his father -- who was kicked out of Kentucky in 1988 before playing a game, but was still taken in the first round of the 1989 NBA draft by Seattle -- Junior is not yet forecasted as a major pro prospect. On Tuesday a multitude of high-profile D-I coaches, including Florida's Billy Donovan, Duke's Mike Krzyzewski and Maryland's Gary Williams, looked on as Kemp's Reebok camp team (the "Jason Terry" squad) played its first game. Kemp started in promising fashion, throwing down a dunk for his squad's first points, but then sputtered to a final stat line of four points and just two rebounds. Summer all-star camps tend to be guard-dominated affairs, but Kemp's impact was still noticeably small in his second game, in which he scored two points and pulled down two boards.
Kemp has too much of everyone's favorite recruiting buzzword -- "upside" -- to be ignored, though. That begins with his growth potential. "Have you seen his feet?" asked Roger Kvam, his coach at Cherokee High (Canton, Ga.), over the phone. "They're huge -- size 19 already. And his wingspan is 7-1." Kemp said doctors have told him he should become a 7-footer by the age of 21.

"That was the first time I remember seeing him since I was 3 years old," Kemp Jr. said. "We got to talk to him after the game before he got on the bus, for like 15 minutes. I don't even remember what about; I was just like ..."

The article sure doesn't say anything favorable about Shawn Kemp (the father)...:slappy:
