went to that 60 million high school stadium they got there in dallas tonight

[the cool]

--Is the stadium associated with a PUBLIC school?
--How vastly wealthy are these people that they can devote such resources to children's sports? How high are their property taxes?
--Do several schools SHARE the stadium? That'd be more realistic (if multiple school districts pooled their $$$ to make a super stadium that they'd all take turns using).
--TX has no state income tax, so ppl take home a greater % of their wages. Did some rich booster just go crazy & donate a shytload of cash for this stadium?

allen high school is a public school. i went to the game because my younger cousin plays on the team.

they dont share the stadium. only they play there.

the school is in a pretty nice area. (not super rich) but mostly white people live there

wasn't plano paying for all of allen's shyt just a couple of years ago on that robin hood plan?

 

[JBoy]

Ain't Allen that school with the 800 plus students marching band, now that is even crazier to me

Number 1, you type on green font and your name is megatronbomb, your posting style reads latent homosexual.

Second, the point is simple, but of course your dumb ass misses it. I already know all of that shyt you posted. We had a huge thread on it a month ago. The State of Texas is ranked 38th in education depending on who you talk to. It graduates more black people then NY for example, but still has lower test scores. That means people aren't learning shyt.

The point I'm making is the same one that I've always made, the model of education in the United States is fukked up in that people view education the way they view the "market." It's a competition and as long as someone is going to a good school, they couldn't give a fukk if the other schools around are terrible. The fact that this district is able to spend a disproportionate amount of money on a fukking 60 million dollar football stadium while Texas lags behind in so many other areas makes no sense.

That was my tax point, and why the federal government should have a bigger say in how education is financed. That district is doing so well that money can just be tossed into shyt like this while others are fukked. Without a system that believes in an equal opportunity for education, you get dichotomies like this. It has nothing to do with being mad, it just doesn't make sense on balance. All that stuff you referenced is just used to justify what is an incredible expenditure at a time where Texas HSs are in shambles overall.

I'm not trying to get into legal aspects and all that shyt at 5AM though.

So what you saying is that these people who work hard for they money and decided instead of spending it on themselves (cars, new houses, whatever) devide to put it back into the community to watch they kids and surrounding kids play football is fukked up. You trying to tell me they should instead throw the money around to random poor broke ass schools that they have nothing to do with and will never see

Get the fukk outta here these people made there money however they did and they can spend it however the fukk they want its not they fault that they have all this money and its not their responsibility to clean up the rest of the country.

Spoiler

And this is coming from someone who poor as fukk

 

[Isaiah Bradley]

you're not making any fukking point... it's an INDEPENDENT school district.



This is America, equality is just a word we use to make lesser people feel better...and some folks less guilty about what they have.

that shyt don't exist here....never has, never will.

thus you proved his point bruh

If the concept of equality is not "truly believed," but instead used as a means to make folks feel good. Then couldn't that tactic of covering your true intentions with popular reasoning/views to keep folks content, be used to justify the reasons for spending millions on a stadium so that "kids are kept off the street"


More importantly, having football be worship as it seems to be in that region is simply learned behavior. It has nothing to do with any natural attraction/love for the game of football. That worshiping of football could have easily been instead a worship of quality education for all American citizens in that region, had it been the agenda of those with money, and thus with political influence

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

That shyt is phenomenal.

 

[Mantle Drunk]

At people spending there friday nights watching kids play football and taking it as serious as they do.

if you're black.
History suggest, had more rich white folks shared your views, then your life's work would had already been mapped out before you were born

All folks should be given a chance at upward class mobility and to achieve the "American Dream" of financial comfort. There's a self destructive cycle that is rooted in racism and white supremacist agenda that is geared towards funneling resources to certain communities, while others are ignored. So unless there's a conscious effort to address poor quality education and housing discrimination (just to name a few), then the self destructive cycle will continue where folks only see sports and entertainment as a means to getting out the hood, aka upward class mobility

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

gives a poor kids free ride to college...to get an education

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[GetInTheTruck]

Foolishness and that's all there is to it. Hey, its their money though.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

All I care about is that those rednecks are gonna be in November.

 

[Majestic Pape]

Megatron clearly ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

 

[DaNatural]

More interested in the revenue from the stadium...

you're trying to twist what i said, into some nonsensical idea YOU came up with..not me.

i didn't justify them building that big ass stadium "to keep kids off the street".. i simply stated the obvious when some euro started popping that " fix crime and poverty...dont spend money on a kids game" bullshyt.


It's the fukking South...what part of "quality education for all in the region" has ever taken place there?


The thing about Football is that it's the one thing that Rich,Poor,Black,White all shared in common. It's damn near a right of passage for males in many families....it's not as it "seems" to be... it's what it has been for generations.

It's like you know next to nothing about the South, or how sports have been tied into the racial and economic divide that exists there.
