So, Mr. Booster, how do you find time to be a booster when you're playing Madden all the time at 26 years old?

If I had to guess, AT BEST, you've donated $500 to the VASF to have the worst seats in the house. Hardly a booster.

Now, I want to clarify that there is nothing to be ashamed of if you donate $500 to the VASF, as your'e 26 and just beginning to accumulate wealth (I'm 24, so I feel ya man). However, I doubt you even do that.
Get off your high horse.

OK, let me clear this up... I used the word "booster" b/c that's the word alot of people use when they talk negatively about donators who violate rules or tread thin ice... My original comment was that there are probably alot of people on here that SOME would consider boosters, donating fans to the program... Never did I refer to myself as some high roller.

Your guess would be wrong... My seats are on Row 1, and it aint in the upper deck. Im in no way rich, and dont claim to be, nor have I ever. Im not on any high horse, just stating my concern for the kid talking to donating fans.

Lastly, paying tuition is hardly "donating"... You are getting a degree in return, where I just get the right to spend MORE money on tickets and parking passes, something that gives me nothing but happiness, where your's returns you $$$.

As far as Madden goes, I didnt say all the time, you did... Im not sure how playing some games at 9 or 10 at night would stop me from making money, but please, speculate to your liking.

Get out of attack mode and realize my concern was for Gerald... Read your (the) VASF book, it expressly says "before any interraction with student athletes, please consult your compliance officer", or that's as close as I can remember w/o going to get it.

I know what your concern was, and I honestly had it too, but your "tone" seemed a little antagonistic, so I had some fun with you.

You'd be shocked how many students I hear with a sense of entitlement about athletic benefits they feel they deserve simply b/c they attend school there... The idea of someone throwing that out there isnt that far fetched.. Maybe for you, but I've heard it quite a bit.

BTW, my posts didnt make me sound dumb... Go back and read them, they make perfectly good sense... How you interpret I meant them is your problem, not mine.

Im not a child, my intentions arent to "cut" anyone... I tried to explain myself so I would be clearly understood, show people the respect of being clear.

Excuse me you sounded like you think very highly of yourself. Maybe one day we can see you playing Madden on ESPN

Chill out. The mods have already discussed this issue. If you are all that concerned, just avoid this thread, or this board.

Yes there was a huge fight about 2 weeks ago.. A bunch of kids that are involved in a gang called 8 Ball came to millwood.. Actually there were about 8 car loads of them with ages ranging from 16-24.. They came to our school and jumped about 6 of our football players.. They had brass knuckles and pepper spray.. It was a pretty wild seen so since then the school has been on lockdown.. We have had trouble with some of these kids for awhile, this summer some of our football kids were at a concert downtown when this same gang started shooting at them.. I know that some of these kids in this 8 ball gang are from some of our rival schools...
