Massillon fans on here (me included): Let's take the high road here until we see what's actually going on. No need sending this into the gutter prematurely. Or ever for that matter.

Oxymoron: Massillon fans " lets take the high road"?? Never been done in history but hey give it a shot the sun and moon may align just right.

[DSE 32]

I wouldn't listen to anything right now especially on here. Some love to play Mr insider.
I would believe Dave Dawg, Raymo and no one from Massillon except Egret

What I heard is that a player showed up late for practice and the whole team had to run while the player had to eat a pizza with meat on it. It's against the kid's religion to eat meat.

 

[DSE 32]

Believe em after I say it first lmao ???? believe that !!! I guess eat meat during lent while the team and coaches haze ..

 

[DSE 32]

??writings on the wall .. off w the head

 

[clarkgriswold]

Guess who is coming to Town...BAM!

Is this going to be like the Pitbull concert at Benson?

He couldn't take the meat off?

I heard of making everyone run but that's a little overboard imo. Coach went Full Metal Jacket boot camp drill sergeant on him.

Bet he isn't late anymore though.

Not likely.

What a shame, so close to season starting for there to be bullying issues or worse

 

[clarkgriswold]

I heard the real problem was that the pizza was Pizza Oven pizza from the concession stand at PBTS.

Sammy B says there's a school board meeting tonight so we should know more soon.

The Board amended the Agenda to include an executive session to discuss personnel with no action expected. I wouldn't think there would be any news other than maybe the names involved.

This is going to be ugly. You don't put coaches on administrative leave unless you plan on doing some firing.

Absolute truth.

 

[clarkgriswold]

Meat would not be the problem. I can't think of a religion that prohibits meat in general. Pork on the other hand...

 

[Mackinbiner]

If the rumor is true, I wouldn't be surprised if this catches the attention of the national news media.

 

[pup pounder]

Muslim and sausage. National story here.lookout.

 

[The Butler]

Doesn't every team just have a pizza laying around before practice just in case?

 

[pup pounder]

 

[doubtme]

Either way I'd say it's likely the pups will see major coaching changes.

Will be curious if they keep any other staff outside the 8 involved as well.

Not a good start to the season right now
