I know! Me and a few friends had a snow ball fight once, and they gave us detentions, and said we disgraced the school. They are so obnoxious! My friend got suspended for hugging his girl friend even. I hate schools

Isn't the school creating a much bigger distraction by suspending him? It seems like now he'd be "The guy who got suspended for his hair-cut", which is more distracting than "The guy with the weird do."

the reason is because of sexual harassment. all she has to do is 2 days later when he pisses her off and they break up say he touched her when she didn't want to be touched... then its her word against his and its ALWAYS sides with the victim. It to cover THEIR @$$ from being sued because everyone is so sue happy now. and the snowball thinkg is a safety thing... it as a joke someone put a rock in 1 and someone got hur the parents could sue the scheool... It's INSAINLY stupid but they HAVE to.

"I've been going to Rays games since I was 2 years old," Sharples said, according to MLB.com. "I went to the second baseball game [at Tropicana Field] ever."

So will he be shaving his Rayhawk any time soon?

"Not until they win the World Series," he said, according to the report.

What do you have against Rays fans? Besides you being a fan of a rival team.

Oh, nothing really...It just seems I hear more from the chest-thumping ones then the more civil ones.

I think that goes with fans of most teams. The obnoxious ones are usually the more vocal ones.

So, what if they don't win this year, then go in to a tailspin back to where they were before? How long is this kid willing to keep that hair? :D
