LOL there are so many holes in this story its ridiculous. You all have been trolled , but it was entertaining. Next time I'll write about how I got expelled for having an orgasm at practice.

The trolls lately keep showing their hands so early. You could have easily turned this into a decent trolling. People were quite angry at you and emotionally invested. Disappointing.

Maybe I underestimated you. You've managed another 2 pages in responses AFTER admitting to be a troll.

Impressive.

So how did this end up? Did monkeypoo apoligize yet?

You sound like a pain in the ass spoiled brat that better get some maturity fast or else people will not want to deal with you and you will always be whining and acting like a victim

I am a former high school and college track/xc coach.

I can tell you this:

1) By yelling or confronting the coach you put their back up against a wall and if others saw it, then it's even worse. Here is why; A coach has to have authority, whether they are nice or a strict disciplarian. They must have their poisition respected. By yelling or standing up to him, and while you are just a freshman, you showed him you have no respect for him, the system, and your place on the team. Man up. Swallow your pride, and go to him with your tail between your legs, and tell him you will practice with the team and earn your spot.

2) You can not go to one school and run for another. The only way this is possible is if the school you go to does not have that sport. If everybody went to a school they liked but ran for a team they liked, we would have a lot more people doing it.

3) Check your ego. You may think you're hot stuff. But, get out there with some 13:30 5k's and you can become very humble. In short, be someone the school is proud to be associated with, and teamates keep in touch with. From your post it sounds like many teammates might not return your calls and the school has no reason to mention your name in a positive manner.

A troll started this thread; don't bother responding anymore. At the heart of the thread is an interesting issue. I started another thread because someone accused me of trolling the troller. The thread is

"HS Alternatives . . . Structural Changes Required?"

It's a legitimate issue and I've heard so many complaints over the years that it's about time someone took action. Please offer a response there if you can add something to the debate.

Nowadays, kids in wheelchairs can get more playing time than "Rudy". Call a lawyer, kid... you'll get your varsity letter without running a single race!

I thought the OP said he was a troll.

It's better that this kid learned his lesson now, than later in life when it could possibly do more damage.

One of the marks of superior trollage is that people *know* they're being trolled, and respond anyway. I give this effort a solid 5/10. Well played.

Hey guys. I went back and read the rest of this thread. Apparently, this was just a troll, so no need to continue the discussion.

Has the coach permitted you to run this year?

sorry to hear that.

Admitting you are a troll automatically equals a 1/10. I made this mistake once after trolling for 6 pages. I was so proud of myself after getting a 9/10 and 10/10 that I just admitted it and I made that mistake.

Never again...

There was another thread about this that showed that this wasn't a troll thread the username "munkypoo" wasn't registered so someone else used it to make the I'm a troll comments. This was very much real.

That is ridiculous if you got kicked off the team for that.

Listen kid.. If you really want to run for your team you need to suck up your pride and realize that you were in the wrong.
