PISD 8s YOU
Submitted by Jerry Schaeffer, PHS Principal
Dear Fan,
You walk up to the stadium or field ready to see a
clash between your high school team and your most
hated rival. You pull out your hard earned cash for
that ticket, that golden ticket that allows you to a seat
where you plan to “help” your team with constant be-
rating of the opposing team and officials. You feel it is
your duty as a fan to do everything you can for your
team, and your role is to call it like you see it from 50
feet away in the stands.
What you don’t understand is that your verbal
abuse does nothing more than tear at the fabric of high
school sports. The players on the athletic field, court
or diamond are not being paid to play; they are not
professional athletes that have to deal with fans like
you on a daily basis. (PISD & YOU, see page 6)
