Really....This is dispicable

This is another example of where people are being unfair and unjust because of religious obligations. People in Colorado should be rasiing more attention to this issue!!!




DENVER (AP) -- State senators have taken up the cause of a Jewish boys basketball team whose playoff run may be halted because its players can't play on the Jewish Sabbath.

The Herzl/Rocky Mountain Hebrew Academy team could be headed for a regional championship on Saturday, March 8, if it wins one more game. But the Denver team's religious beliefs prohibit students from playing on the Jewish Sabbath between sundown Friday and sundown Saturday.

If Herzl/RMHA makes it to the regional championship and refuses to play a Saturday game, another school would be chosen to take its place, CHSAA commissioner Bill Reader said.

Earlier this month, the Colorado High School Activities Association, which governs sports and other high school activities, rejected the team's request for a schedule change.

At the end of morning debate in the state Senate on Wednesday, Majority Leader Ken Gordon, D-Denver, called on the CHSAA to be more flexible.

Senate President Peter Groff, D-Denver, said the CHSAA's decision was ironic because it has a rule barring games from being played on Sunday for religious reasons.

Sen. Tom Wiens, R-Sedalia, said there must be a way for the CHSAA to accommodate the team.

"It just seems like the bureaucracy has run amok here," Wiens said.

Bruce H. DeBoskey, mountain states regional director for the Anti-Defamation League, said the group was disappointed by CHSAA's decision.

Prayers to P.G.

Minus my own personal feelings to the state of Maryland. My hearts and prayers go out to the families of the bus driver and 44 students who were on the school bus that tipped this morning in P. G. County Maryland. Early reports said the kids were fine, but Im sure all the people involved are shacken up. My thoughts and prayers go out to them.

You gotta becareful what u put online these day...

I cant believe the mayor of Oregon lost her job because she took some semi "racy" pics and posted them on Myspace. In a world that is becoming smaller and smaller due to the internet people have to be aware of what they put out. More and more we are learning that there is no more time for privacy, when it comes to public officials.

The Next President of the US?

As we inch closer to Super Tuesday in Texas and Ohio could one of these two be the next President? Not to disrespect Republican nominee John McCain, but the Democrats are pushing a White woman and a Black man as our top representatives. Its cliche to say that times may be changing but I really think that's what happening. I hope everyone out their Republican or Democrat is going to be active in this years election.

Is this really the end??

According to published reports this will be the end of an era. For kids born in the mid 1980's the end of an era has come. This years pair of the Air Jordan's shoes will be it, over fineto!! For kids growing up these shoes represented the pinnacle of basketball and everyone wanted a pair. Lets look back fondly at the days when "j's" were the greatest thing going..

Does this lil guy look familar??

is it me or does Disney's newest character Wall*E look a lot of Johnny 5 from Short Circuit???



More and more these days i feel like the 1980's are just replaying themselves over and over. Its gotten to the point were the "creative minds" at a powerhouse like Disney are rehashing ideas from yesteryear. Be sure to checkout the official movie website to get the full Wall*E affect. despite my better judgment, Ill see this movie based on the fact it's a Disney film and I love all things Disney. http://www.apple.com/trailers/disney/walle/
