    The whole article was ridiculously fucking stupid. Where are the shakedowns of O'Dea, Eastside Catholic, Bellarmine, Rainier Beach, Garfield, etc? The Catholic schools let minorities who are good at sports in for free and do everything necessary to keep them eligible. Recruiting goes on at a ton of high schools. Kids using a relatives address to go to an out of the district school isn't even the slightest bit newsworthy.

    Then they find some disgruntled ex-player who now lives a shitty life. He whines that nobody cared about him except for football. Welcome to real life. Do you think high schools give a shit about the kids in band or the skateboarding stoner?

    When did you attend Bellevue HS?
    I didn't. Bellevue cheats but who gives a shit? The teams that play against Bellevue in the playoffs are doing the same thing. That's what the good programs do. Bellevue does it best.

    rumor on the street is the apartment building by the high school... The one that on occasion has been known to lend a helping hand to a family in need... throws the best high school parties.

    a little birdie told me that if you dig into the on-goings at Bothell and Skyline, you'd find a few questionables.

    hoo cares? a non-story.

    Bothell, honestly is probably the cleanest of the programs mentioned. They built up the pee wee program there and surprise, they got better (after years of being the Kingco doormat). But to stay better Bothell will likely need to, Northshore is building a new North Creek High School that will alter the enrollment numbers of those schools.

    Bellevue has been dirty for years. No way in hell the limp wristed residents of Clyde Hill and Medina a feeding this football monster. Funny thing is they traditionally had good teams because of their peewee system (Newport is a good example of this), they just went a bit overboard.

    I'm thinking its time Bellevue sits this season out and reflects on its sins. Maybe Butch goes too... and Bellevue becomes a trailblazer with coed football and a female coach.

    Quite honestly I've always been impressed with the integrity of high school sports
