[Mosiah]

for sporting purposes.

Well, tell me what you think about this:

Obviously he isnt exploited academically,he passes his subjects ,wasnt that your issue ? It seems the educational pursuits go hand in hand with the athletic.

That was not my only issue.

Do you believe it's ok for a player to enter community college, or even college, and just because he's still eligible, return to high school for another season of schoolboy football?

Once you have successfully passed your "school-leaving exams", is it ok to go back for more high school football?

[Sir X]

Yes,he is eligible.He hasnt vioilated any rules .Why have a rule to penalise a youth who excels in the most important one, academics,if anything he should be a shining example.

[Mosiah]

Ok. Well, I disagree.

I don't think our schools have room for people who just want to use them as sports clubs. If you have already graduated, especially to the point where you have entered a tertiary institution, then you should not be allowed to return to high school.

Let me ask, What the RAAASSS is this man doing in high school?

The young man, who has attended two other high schools and one community college, has 14 subjects: seven CSEC, four CAPE unit ones, and three CAPE unit twos.

Mi friend son was 17 last year when he left St.Georges for a scholarship to UWI. He could have stay back and be start baller for two years but know that Manning cup is not all. Where is his this kid parents?

X say him neva break nuh rule.

[Sir X]

Did he?

[Time]

"First, I went to Camperdown where I did seven CSEC subjects and passed all of them, and then I went to Exed (Excelsior Community College) because I couldn't get into any school at the time, and I did four CAPE unit ones, and I got them all," Henry shared. "Then I decided that I wanted to play Manning Cup again, so I went to St Andrew Technical, and I sat three subjects in upper sixth form." Henry was, however, not content with completing his high school tenure not having donned the uniform of St George's College.

Professional student and no parental supervision. Who was paying his bills?

[Mosiah]

There a million things in life that are legal yet unethical, wrong, ill-advised, amoral, unprofessional, wicked and improper.

[Mosiah]

Maybe the schools that wanted him to win trophies for them?

[Sir X]

Thanx for the lecture

[Sir X]

You have issues, first it's exploitation because of lack of education, now its too much.... SMH,when yuh was a child ,yuh use to complain fi complain sake.?

[Mosiah]

You have issues, first it's exploitation because of lack of education, now its too much....

Clearly, you have misunderstood. It's not a matter of too much education. The point is the student has left high school, only to come back for another season of football, nothing else. Can't help you if you continue to not get it.

SMH,when yuh was a child ,yuh use to complain fi complain sake.?

My childhood habits have little to do with this discussion.

[Mosiah]

Any time!
