West Virginia Board of Education President Paul Hardesty said that since school choice continues to be supported by Gov. Patrick Morrisey and the Legislature, county systems need to make themselves the most appealing school choice option of all.

Good Thursday morning from the sports desk:
- High school softball reaches its final round.
- WVU baseball makes final NCAA Super Regional preparations.
- McBride and Knicks take NBA Finals lead
Following a 9-2 loss, the #Reds wake up seven games back of the Brewers, last place in the NL Central.
It was yet another noncompetitive performance, and a night worthy of a refund for the 19,409 fans at GAPB.....
Lyon Richardson was so erratic, the Royals didn't swing at any of his first 14 pitches. Following two walks and a hit by pitch in the 1st inning, the game that was over with a Lane Thomas grand slam. Richardson threw 30 pitches, just 13 strikes.
The Reds lost by at least five runs for the 16th time, tied with the Rockies for the most in MLB. A year ago, the Reds lost 20 such games all season.
Kansas City entered the game having lost six in a row and 16 of 19. They came to town 7-20 on the road, having been outscored 135-83. Averaging just over 3 runs per game away from Kauffman Stadium, they dropped 9 on the Reds, tying their season high road production.
Offensively, the Reds managed just six hits, striking out 12 times.
They scored a single run in the 1st and the 9th. The night ended with three sub .200 hitters in the lineup.
Nick Krall has done such a poor job of assembling MLB and minor league talent. What he has served up disguised as help for a MLB team trying to survive borders on criminal. It's become one spaghetti toss on the wall/no business being in the majors offerings after another.
The last three bullpen options he's provided Terry Francona arrived with Louisville ERA's of 5.23, 5.12, 4.75.
What are we doing?
At some point it has to be deemed unacceptable by the front office and ownership. It just has to be.
Waaaaaay too often this team just isn't competitive.
I'm tired of it. Aren't you?
COMMENTARY: “Local Control” has become a rallying cry for communities who believe their voices are being ignored because of HB 2014. But was the idea of local control anything more than a myth to begin with?
