Amazing news coming out of Massachusetts this week, I've been riveted to this incredibly stupid drama. A few seniors on the Ipswitch lacrosse team were photographed holding cigars at their graduation (they were 18yo seniors), which was a violation of the no tobacco policy for the league. They were suspended and the team had to forfiet the semi-finals. Harsh!
But THEN, one of the dads came forward and claimed that he had personally hand-rolled FAKE cigars out of chamomile tea leaves so that they didn't contain tobacco. The dad even gave the pricipal a reciept showing he had bought tea leaves at the grovery store to make them.
The kids mere then un-suspended. Seems like a happy ending where the league doesn't have to admit it loosened the rules, and the kids get to play their final game after a meaningless infraction (a single cigar at graduation is much different than like, vaping!)
BUT NO! Now it's revealed that the principal was suspicious of the grocery store receipt, which had the date and time smudged out. So he went in person to the store and asked them to confirm the receipt -- and the store manager revealed the tea purchase was made days after the cigar incident, only after the parents knew the kids were in trouble.
Suspended again!

Just witnessed a movie theater cashier sell this group of 70 ish year old folks on going to see the new Scary Movie. It was a delightful scene. Need to hear their post-movie podcast ep.
Here's the KAT baseline drive travel no call (we also would need to ignore the potential foul on Wemby, too). Left foot is down when dribble ends. Next foot to touch (right foot) becomes the pivot. The right foot lifts off the floor legally, then touches the floor illegally
