kids from my high school...

i was sitting at my computer today when a cortland student, whom i went to school with sent me a message on instant messenger. The instant message had a link on it which I clicked and immediately knew someone from my old high school got in trouble. The headline said GB boots kids off the football team. As I read on I noticed a few kids that were younger than me, who are seniors now, and I knew all of them. When I read on i found out that the kids were kicked off the team for unaccaptable behavior, not on the field but in school. At my old high school we had a walkway that all the seniors paint their name on and it stays that way for another year. The students from the football team, five to be exact, painted a huge marijuana leaf and then put their names, each on one leaf. Thats definately not a smart thing to do, and i reeally dont consider it funny. It seems as if these kids were just trying to get in trouble. As a former player, i understand that behavior off the football field is just as important as actions on the field. However, It seems to me that an act like this should not be punishable by being kicked off the team. Maybe have the clowns paint the sidewalk or something, but don't kick them off the team. Does anyone think these kids should be icked off the team?
