Sometimes the truth hurts. Obamas failed policies have put America back into a great recession. No hope or change here.
Yeah. I can see how that makes Obama the same as one of the greatest mass murderers the world has ever known. The "truth" really hurts.
Oh my god, it is true; the great flood gates have opened at ORL. Please reconsider this, Stewart. I can't go back to looking at car wrecks every day of my life.
My sister has interviewed this relic twice. He's a backward gimp-hick. He's a disgrace to his father, that's for sure.
Wasn't to long ago, many of you were comparing Bush to Hitler...
Dear Editor,
Certain Members of the Lil’ Potters Football Board have built themselves a nice comfort zone so that they can remain in their position. They have surrounded themselves with people on the board that are “yes men/women” and can sway the votes any way they deem necessary.
One issue is the bylaws; every organization has a set of bylaws that are set rules for their team and are accessible upon request, which is unless you’re a Lil’ Potter parent/coach. Apparently they have something to hide because everything is a big secret with them. An individual brought a set of bylaws to them with a question and the board indicated to this gentleman that he had the wrong set of bylaws before they even read them. Out of curiosity, how many sets of bylaws are organizations supposed to have? One would be the correct answer. Every time there is an issue they say that it is an “under the bleacher agreement between members that wasn’t printed in the bylaws yet”. This is a loophole that they use every time that they don’t want to discuss the issue at hand. Every time someone has an issue, they can push you away because everything can be an “under the bleacher agreement” just to put an end to the discussion.
Another issue at hand is that they won’t allow a parent to be the Head coach of their child’s team. Correct me if I’m wrong but that isn’t that the way little league sports have been ran in the past? It is very difficult to find volunteers to coach the youth programs that don’t have some connection to the respective teams.
Then comes up the issue with “double standards”… They do allow the spousal combination of husband and wife to be members of the board. This is an ethical issue and a conflict of interest in my opinion. We have 2 separate sets of spouses on the board not to mention a brother and sister combination that all seem to be in the hip pockets of one another.
The board holds ALL of the votes that are cast. Yes, that’s right; the body doesn’t get a vote. If there is an individual that is interested in one of the current board members’ positions, that individual must be nominated and voted on by THE BOARD!!! If the board wants the current member to keep their positions, THEY JUST VOTE FOR THE CURRENT MEMBERS! How is this fair? I think we have a case of Nepotism here. The board only replaces members when a position is vacated. In the bylaws it states that there is to be an election held annually and this is not done and the golden “bylaws” are not followed.
There are 3 other board members that have no connection to the above mentioned members and do a tremendous job and do have objective opinions and have the organization and the kids best interest at heart and I applaud these 3 members for that.
We are governed under democracy and the people are elected by the people. We vote for the President, Congress, School Board etc…. to represent us, but yet the Lil Potters don’t even let booster club members or their coaches have a voice on any matters.
Something needs done now before this organization crumbles beneath our feet because certain members of the board are caught in a power struggle, when in reality it is all about the kids! Maybe the board members should realize that this is not a personal attack on them. We need members of the board that can look at issues from all angles and not just their own!!
WE WANT OUR RIGHT TO VOTE FOR OUR REPRESENTATION!!!!
I don't think anyone who posted here ever did that.
The Little Potters? Who cares?
