Random-Pioneer Football

The tradition of the Batesville pioneers has thrived throughout the years with many winning seasons along the way. During the 2009 season the pioneers suffered some hardships, ending the season with a 5-4-1 record. This was the first time in years that we did not make the playoffs. Heart broken but still willing the juniors are stepping it up in the offseason. With almost the whole defense returning, and most of the offense returning, the pioneers are looking foward to a dominating season that will put the schools tradition back on track.

civil war

Before my sister went off to college, we would sometimes have a civil war amongst each other. Mostly verbal, but sometimes physical about whos phone charger was in the kitchen or who got to take a shower next. The physical fights were hard blows like a jack hammer at construction sight or a boxing with match with Mike Tyson.

bullying

I think bullying is wrong, even though you may the bigger, stronger person that's no reason to pick on a smaller, weaker person. The bullying needs to put themselves in their shoes and see how unfair it is to be the weaker person.
