3. @mgreg065@mgreg065 I graduated HS in early 90s. Based on my experience of watching all the different types over the last 25 years, you and your jock friends will be alcoholics with broken families, police records and trouble finding good jobs. While this person who was brave and intelligent enough to write a blog post and contact the school administration will have a rewarding career and good strong family bonds in a community where she is highly valued. @NJgirl@NJgirl I'm gonna have to disagree with one thing......what you do on your own free time that has nothing to do with the school or its athletic programs does in no way "represent the school". This is political correctness run amuck. Why is the school involved - it's none of anybody's business, except the parents of these kids, and the police (if there's an investigation into the underage drinking). I couldn't believe my ears when I turned on the radio this morning and this was being discussed on NJ101.5, as if it's a public safety issue. Kids have been underage drinking since the dawn of man, and many of you here have done the same thing, in your parents' basements. No issue there, move on.
