19 year old boy loses senior season, because of elementary school
A young man named Adam Sisson has been ruled ineligible for his senior season because he was born not a month to early or even a week, but a mere 12 hours. The rules say that if you turn 19 before august 1st then you can’t play, and he was born July 31st, I can see if he was born June 31st but that close they minus well just let him play. This isn’t a case of his dad holding him back in the eighth grade to have an advantage, back firing, but it happened in third grade because of a learning disability, are you kidding me? A kid is being punished for something that happened in elementary school!?
The leagues executive director Ken Tilley, said that the rule was created to keep a “competitive balance” in sports, well parents if little Sally doesn’t do so well in kindergarten you should probably send her to summer school if she has any hopes of playing basketball one day. Has Tilley forgotten what it was like to play a high school sport, no kid is paying attention in Spanish, they are all thinking about the game that night, especially seniors, I can honestly say senior year sports are the highlight of any athletes senior year, but for Adam he’s know thinking about the game he can’t play in.
Adam was supposed to star for not only football, but also basketball, and baseball, but he has already missed basically the whole football season and basketball isn’t looking to good. Now don’t think that Adam is just taking this, him and his father are fighting the ruling and are seeing a federal Judge soon, hopefully the Judge sees reason and reinstates him, because even though the league ruined his football season, all his not lost for basketball and baseball, and good thing Adam is being the mature one here, still supporting his teammates, getting them pumped before games, dressing and standing on the sideline. I say if they win give him the MVP just to show people like Ken Tilley
