It appears Mr. Madison can't comprehend how the good people of Canfield would reject such common sense budget increases for his employer. (My sarcasm is surpassed only by Mr. Madison's petition drive.) If Stacy has viewed the documentary Waiting for Superman, he certainly exhibits no comprehension of this sobering review of public education in our nation. Stacy should be more appreciative of his positively luxurious work environment. Further, why do many teachers and other public employees expect all other tax payers to fund deficit spending for their chosen careers? In the private sector, employees do more with less in difficult times. There is no ballot initiative for the private sector. If Stacy is dissatisfied with his current employment situation, he can easily seek alternative opportunities. Good luck. I am certain his selfless, team attitude and sophomoric wit will impress potential employers.

Congratulations on an incredible season! To be undeafeated with such a difficult schedule ranks this Cardinal Mooney team as arguably the best in school history.

More unfounded opinion from the most hateful, religious bigot in the valley. He will illustrate his opinions with the occassional exception to the unquestionably strong academic records of CMHS or UHS student athletes. He will ignore any reference to the contrary. He will ignore any questions that do not further his hateful cause. After much thought I have decided to stop feeding his ego. This is likely the only time he feels important so I will not give him that pleasure. Have fun in your electronic reality my friend. I know you don't have the temerity to take your fight to the real world so enjoy your celebrity here on line.
Yes it was a very logical statement. The representatives in the championship games are both rare regardless of public or parochial status. As always you are confusing your subjective opinion of cheating with the objective facts of open enrollment and parochial enrollment. You are so emotionally distracted by your hateful religious intolerance you are incapable of objective debate.
Mooney1993, Wow! Is that all you can offer? You are presented with a series of posts on OE, tuition assistance and the Steubenville scenario for success. With all of that material your response is 6 parochial programs in the championship games even though parochial schools represent less than 10% of programs statewide? By the way 6 parochial schools in the championship games represent less than 7% of all OH parochial high schools. I am sorely disappointed. I thought you were a skilled debater. I was wrong. At least you avoided a gratuitous shot at the Church this time. That is something to be applauded. If all you have is bluster and opinion you, sir, are providing the yawns.
I am sure some football players receive tuition assistance. I am confident the vast majority of tuition assistance aids those with demonstrated financial need regardless of their participation in athletics. Do some athletes receive financial assistance? Undoubtedly the answer is yes. Do athletes receive a disproportionate share of tuition assistance? The answer is unequivocally no. Do parochial athletes receive any other type of financial consideration? The answer is unequivocally no. Further, athletes that do receive aid receive it regardless of the skill or ability. Many students that receive grant and aid gladly and willingly repay the kindness by working in the school and this includes athletes. Those persons opposed to parochial participation would have you believe that the success of the CMHS and UHS football programs is the result of illicit recruiting and pay-for-play. As CardsWin so eloquently stated,
“The formula is simple, success breeds success.” “If you have the fiscal wherewithal to provide your children with THE BEST experience in the classroom and on the football field, why would you deprive them of that?”
Even if a student, regardless of athletic participation, does not have the financial means there is opportunity at CMHS and UHS.
If there was county-wide OE you might find an even greater athletic parity. As an example, if a student from the Youngstown public schools wanted to attend Poland Seminary or Canfield High School and this student's family was willing to make to sacrifices necessary to ensure the student's academic and athletic success. If this were the case would we be having this discussion?

Also, though only conjecture on my part I contend the number of those posters opposed to parochial participation in the OHSAA tournaments are posting under multiple screen names.
Out with the Canfield cardinal, in with the black squirrel?
