Competition, real competition is fine in its place And competition is almost always in place Its the way a competitive spirit is applied iat brings the frowns and long faces. This year's Yoemen are a clean, well adjusted bunch of boys as any coach or fan could ask for II the fans stay behind them in the right way they will stay that way.

When the in the stands start letting loose with the boos although the game is being played fairly and cleanly, then the boys on the field will resort to more urastic measures of getting applause, their When this happens its the same old story of boy getting thrown out of the game, the school blacklisted and the fans complaining about bad sportsmanship. So lets all remember that sportsmanship really starts with the spectators. The participants in any contest are going to do what t' audience want to see So if the audience hollars for blood, they'll get it. they hollar for good clean lay they will get that too. So win or loose lets play the game 1 fair, clean and competitive.
