Every now & then one sees something that 'grabs you'. Driving through Scotia, Rt. 50, I notice a sign that read "SPARTANS, Scotia Pop Warner Football". The Spartans are looking for recruits. The Spartan in times past were Greeks, Sparta was a Greek Warrior State. Greeks in BC (Before Christ) were not as today. The ancient Greeks were 'Keltic' not the 80% Turkish as they are now. Alexander The Great, a Macedonian looked like an Irish or Scottish man, not a Mediterranean as we know them today.
The Spartan military state had customs most would not embrace, I hope. Man warriors would take boy warriors under their wing. They would live like 'man & wife'. The pedophile gig. The girls had similar but not exactly the same arrangement. On the marriage night (boy, girl) the girls would have to shave their heads so the boys could consummate the marriage, the boys being more turned on by boys than girls. The girls predilections were ignored.
I know Scotia is the ancient name for Scotland, that is OK. Should a Pop Warner Football Team be named after a society that embraced pedophilly or is Joe Paterno (Penn. State) alive & well in Scotia. What next, Gerry Sandusky Day at Jumping Jacks?
I do not believe in PC or word police but Scotia needs to get a new name for it's Pop Warner team. Old Pop Warner must be doing 45RPM in his grave.
Ignorance of the law is no defense in court nor should ignorance of history be acceptable.
You have to much time on your hands, I'm sure they named them due to the great warriors the Spartans were
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
I was thinking the other day that the Rotterdam Pop Warner team needs to move from it's current field to one out in the Rotterdam Junction. I mean really, who around here is a Raiders fan? If they move to Rotterdam Junction, simple name / logo change. They could be the Junction Jets. Senders, you in for starting a petition?

You shall not speak of those who are former Republicans that had their club and sold it. They are those who are not to be named. And anyway, they're the ones paying for the new fields, right? LOL

LOL well I was just inquiring 'cause I remember seeing a bunch of little league folks at a meeting awhile back and asking the board that same question, and being reassured by that collection of weasels that the fields would be started on time, and since I haven't seen any work started down at the new site, that is if they're going to be able to use that, since it sorta sounded like that maybe there could be a problem, but the weasels once again reassured the little league folks that discussions were being held and a solution would be forthcoming, so I was just wondering if anyone knew the projected start date for construction, or were the weasels just paying lip service to the folks who were looking for an honest answer 'cause that's basically what weasels do..............
What else can we give to them? They've done everything they want to date (with exception of Wal-Mart, that they now got their ways with additional MFRH).
Apartments need sewers and how much and who are still unanswered questions. Remember that at one time there were going to be sewers put in between the sewer plant and exit 25, what happened??

OH YEAH BABY!!!!!

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS
