Lawrence High v. Free State football
Excellent job photographers. These are excellent shots of not only the game, but the whole atmosphere. Keep it up.

Lions rushers slam Leavenworth, 46-26
Leave the kids out of this. My comments on Lisher were a complement, not a complaint. He does control himself and does a good job coaching. My comments for haters pointed out the people who bash the play calling, strategies, etc. of coaches. I have never said anything about kids. This is not forum to talk about 17 year old kids. The mirror test is good enough for me to see how I feel about protecting kids. I don't need a "grandma" to tell me how to guard children. Believe me grandma, you or any other 'blogger' start turning your negative comments toward a kid, and you will have me and 90% of Lawrence on you like stink on you know what. I agree, keeping language clean is good for kids, but so is success on the field. It is hard to find complements for coaches, they tend to get all the blame and non of the credit. I'd bet they don't care, that is why I care for them. I help kids in different forums, not battleing a "grandma" on line.

Lions rushers slam Leavenworth, 46-26
It is funny how you respond to a very general question I posted. What makes you think I was talking to you? Are you a hater? There wasn't one ounce of gloating in my comments. I'm simply commenting that after the one loss there were several comments. After the wins there are relatively few. Don't be blinded by Coach Lisher's chior boy talk on the field. He and Wedd are cut from same old-school football cloth. Lisher does an exellent job controling his language and is an excellent coach, but I guarantee you the F-bombs flow when it is just the coaches. I have never once made my comments Free State vs. Lawrence. I don't feel that way. My comments stem from people who wont give credit when credit is due, but are all too ready to lower the bombs when blame is due. Is that you Grandma? I never said it was, but you sure defend yourself like it is you.
By the way, there will be no gloating about the Lions from me. Consider me a guardian angle for coaches.

Hey Haters, when do we fire Wedd? Could it be that he is a good coach? It is easy to dump on people when things go wrong, but I haven't seen one complement for the coaches all season. The only negative ones, you may ask? Week two, the Lion's only loss. Go Lions!

Veritas football loses to Frankfort, 32-22
Why is it when Veritas wins there are quotes, photos and long stories; then they play a school with actual tradition and get beat there is a few paragraphs?

Lawrence High mothers take to the field with Lions football team
What an awesome thing to do. How many females have actually experienced football that up close? Then to have the opportunity to experience it with your son (grandson) must make it even sweeter. Great job Coach Wedd and staff.

Tough enough: Lions battle injuries, win regional baseball championship
This is perfect. No one complaining about their kid not playing, no one accusing the coach of some wrong-doing. Just positive reinforcement of an accomplishment and the recognition of the work ahead. A wise man once told me "they don't hang banners for Regional Championships." I agree, there are 8 of those around every year.

Big-game experience: Former Jayhawk Mike Rivera relishes second chance
That is common text for a head line. The headline is "former" not "ex". There is a difference. The meaning is Rivera played for the Jayhawks and not longer does. If it said "Jayhawk Mike Rivera..." that would imply he is currently playing for the Jayhawks.

Transfers settling in at LHS
I am happy for the kids and the program. I honestly am not trying to start anything with this question, but how can a kid change schools in mid year. Did she move accross town?
