High schools across Massachusetts are threatening to punish athletes if they are spotted drinking alcohol or using drugs in photos or videos posted on MySpace , YouTube , or other online sites.
What a lousy idea. First, if someone has a picture of a beer can online, does that mean they drank it? What about photoshop? What about friends who post pictures of their friends - without consent?
Plus, the concept of a Principal devouring the nets to
School is school and Myspace is Myspace. The two should be as seperate as Church and State.

if the school faculty are concerned about what a student posts, they shouldn;t punish the kid, they should have a conversation with the kid & maybe the parents. punishment means you disapprove. conversation means you care. kids know the difference and respond accordingly (sometimes at least). however, i'm not for trolling the web looking to catch some kid "offending". that just creeps me out.

pecan piiiieeee. mmmmmm!
