The Mooney lovers continue to deny the facts. You've been recruiting for decades and you know it. Again you shout this is "much ado about nothing"...just like your booze and cigars on campus after another tainted state title
The Phantoms play too many games on Friday nights which interfers with many high school basketball games. I would be more likely to attend if they would schedule games on Saturday or Sunday afternoons. And raising ticket prices ain't gonna help. Why should someone pay $10 bucks to see basically high school kids play hockey when you can pay $6 bucks to watch them play baskeyball for your alma mater?
Sad that the reason stated in the above editorial was completely flawed in all 3 arguments.
1. Fracking has been done for years without incidents until 2005, when the gas/oil companies got fracking removed from the Clean Air/Water Act. At that point in time the heavy use of toxic chemicals used in the process began. At that point in 2005 we have seen instances of fracking contaminating water.
2.Th amendment was based on the same amendment the Pittsburgh City Council adopted. Are they saying Pittsburgh council members are whack jobs?
3.Similar amendments have been adopted across Ohio. In terms of it being unenforceable, who has ruled on this? No one. We only heard speculations on the parts of lawyers who are involved in making money from fracking leasing contracts.
The Vindy editorial board is simply another business backing business at the expense of the people. The Vindy is no longer the "people's paper",,,it's the business paper.
I wonder who wrote this? Betras?Humphries? Mr. Lyden? Any and all CEO's from the local fracking companies? Mr. Lupo? The Advertising Editor of the Vindy?
It's a sad day when the deep pockets of the gas/oil industry were able once again to convince the media and Joe Public to buy another pig in the poke by convincing them that jobs and money will come to the poor in Y-town by supporting fracking. When the money rolls in to help the poor and clean up Youngstown's blight, please wake me up. I'm not expecting a wake-up call.
Just say no to double-dippers! Hathorn will now no longer pay into the pension fund for younger teachers. Others paid for your pension, Connie...now continue to do the same or get out! Retire!!!!!

Anti-fracking charter amendment soundly defeated in Youngstown
The "No" supporters got their message out and won the day. But I'd still rather hug a tree than a fracking well.

Those familiar with Mike Rice recall his intensity
I heard when Patton coached the Youngstown Pride he was involved in numerous nightclub incidents when the team would play in Las Vegas.
